Would anyone be looking to form a Yaoi Scanlation group? I seriously love Yaoi with a passion and when I find out that a series is dropped for unknown reasons it breaks my heart T^T So to avoid more heart break I wanna try to help c: Um I know I'm good with English (according to college I am at least) so I feel as though I could help in that area but for the rest of the spots I'd need assistance so um does anyone wanna form one?

If your concern is dropped projects I'd suggest joining existing group rather than making new one.
The End was made with exact purpose of picking up dropped projects and almost every second project is BL. They take in freelance staff too so you shouldn't have a problem there.
Another would be to find a group that works on somewhat similar project to the one you're interested in and ask them to work on it or maybe even make it a condition for you joining.
Making a group, maintaining it and making sure it's long lasting is not as easy as it may sound :x

It's actually pretty hard to manage a scanlation group especially when you're already busy irl. You'll have to manage the projects, the staff members and the websites for your group - assuming you want to make a facebook page, a twitter account and a tumblr blog, then your main will be the wordpress lmao. It would be easy if you had a co-admin but sometimes that causes problems as well.
