Disperson yeah, their going for the epub way of trying to make money, if you what to get a real heads up and how bed qi and even gt has acted, you should join www,novelupdates.com ( its good for all novel info and also for finding new non-qi books) and look at the huge forums posts and the lies and bs that's happened over the last 3 yrs,
also, we did the 1-star google vote thing before and qi removed the app and as they are based in China used their own servers, they even had to change FB pages 3 times due to the comments left, as they never speak to us the reader, they just think they can control us
also the reason they only own 90% of gt is this gt host non-qi novel's and if as they had planned in buying it all they'd have lost those, they almost did about 8mths ago until ma new deal was done ...
as I said read up on novelupdates and you find a lot of things you never knew about

    VexationPrince you seem to think qi care ..but they don't in anyway ..in the post above I linked a database site ie novelupdates , just read the p[osts in their and you understand this is the common standard way of qi's dealing with stuff

      Pizz damn these bastards hiding their shit with their shitty service. I'll check out novel updates. Thx

      Guys, just chill. Anyone here can read these premium novels on “mirror” (pirate) websites, which I won’t link here because I don’t support them and I don’t want to give them more clicks and ad revenue. But I’m not ashamed to say I’ve been reading Webnovel’s premium novels on Reddit (r/QidianUnderground). I still give my daily free stones to support the novels I like, but since I can’t pay for them all, I shamelessly read most of them on reddit.

        Tride Writers don't cost anything, they only bring in money...

          Yakumo You don't understand. You can't stop piracy, but you can sue people who uploaded and send them to jail or make their life in 'disaster' with the need to 'pay' for damage. A criminal record would prevent future employment. We know all the dark secret. Does he need to advertise in the official sites?

            Hey Quidian, With the amount of daily ss we get. How i am suppose to read all those novels. If only i could afford those premium i would definately buy each and everyone of those chapters but forcing us to buy chapters made me drop lot of good novels. If u guyz care about us readers then daily free chapters plz

              Ahsaan daily free chapter is like wishful thinking now.
              It's policy from the mother company Qidian that webnovel must apply to appease the author

              Disperson not only that, they don't hear our complaints as well. Like the lack of Translators!! MAM is suspended because of this.

                MasterRabbink Yeah I used to download ROMs there years ago. It’s a pity what happened to them. But I think webnovels piracy aren’t gonna end too soon. There are many aggregator websites out there, and if you take one down, another one goes up. Besides, I don’t support them and, in fact, I will actually be happy that they are taken down. I hate that they steal other’s works that are available for free in translators websites and then they try to make money with ads. I know, I’m a hypocrite. But I only read on pirate websites those premium novels I can’t afford, and only when they aren’t posted on Reddit r/QidianUnderground yet (which is very rare, it happens only with Carefree Path of Dreams, which is not that popular). I still read on Webnovel free translations and original works.

                  this could be a sinkingship. i keep stay on line to expens my ss, I use it on the last day of expied date. who care if QI losing money cause lack of reader. they are the one who asking of it. i read from many source. WW, grafity, rpg, nandodes, RLN.. and etc.

                  StampedingSquirrel You don't understand what I said.

                  I agree you can't stop piracy. You can only beat the piracy. For example Netflix did in movie industry. Steam did in pc games. Freemium model did for apps.

                  However do you need to mention the name of that subreddit? Perhaps webnovel staff would love to visit that one day.

                    HAs this shit gotten a response? That's the thing i hate most about webnovel, their communication sucks donkey nuts.

                      MasterRabbink i agree with your comment, only to me morons would go about using site names when google or duckduckgo works great to find stuff, but they already have visited it, 3mths ago UG got a bit of a freak on even closing the discord, and went closed mode, but a week later back to public, but it's moronic when people talk about in this forum, shows thing have no brains at all

                      We do get about 25-30 free SS every time we check in, and a chapter only costs 3-7 SS depending on length of chapter...plus free chapters are release everyday slowly...though I preferred when they used ads or SS instead of just SS.

                        MasterRabbink Originals will become premium too tho? It's better to not even start if you can't even afford to read already premium novels, or it will become a never ending cycle...

                        And yeah, you can only beat piracy by providing something more. Anime streaming industry is the same, they mostly have shit service and nothing innovative. Sites like Crunchyroll is quite honestly worse than the best aggregator sites. The aggregator sites literally have better service, so it's no wonder they are doing good as they are also free...

                        kasmin21 Kasmin, my friend what are you even doing here? Do you even actually read in Webnovel? The whole point of this post is that there is no longer any free chapters getting released everyday. Also, chapters don't cost 3 - 7 ss on avarage. They cost like 8 - 12 in most novels...

                          how sad. now I have no choice but to read one only...sigh...if only Qidan didn't took many series from wuxia and gravitytales...sigh...damn it all.....I can only hope that the translators will spare us and go back to their old sites even if they just release a chapter a day...sigh...

                            Disperson You really think they care? People are still voting the novels highly. Library of Heaven's Path is still ranked the highest. People are voting them and those willing to pay to read aren't dependant on the daily release, and probably don't even know it was stopped. And as long as they are making money, why would qidian even care about those unwilling to pay or who leaves?

                              BlaqueLyte
                              better if LoHP got first so no one spending power stones to free novel. It keeps free novel to stay free. Dont mislead people to vote power stones to free novel

                                After doing some calculation, I do not think that I can afford this price.
                                In my country, the dollar is getting expensive every now and then.

                                MasterRabbink Thank you for saying that, I live in the US and regional pricing would force me to move to another country because reading is pretty much the only thing I care about. I only work so I can afford a place to live, eat, and read lol

                                  kulmai Daily free SS has always expired after 30 days ever since the expiration system was introduced. The 120 day expiration is for the bonus stones you get when purchasing SS.

                                  usually I wait for a chapter to unlock itself each day..but now it didn't happen anymore.. T_T

                                  juste stop reading like me (they block chapter that where free before like The Nine Cauldrons they block 500 chapter ...) if they stop free chapter i juste stop reading lol

                                  Disperson

                                  Duh!

                                  1.) They removed ad-block because a single person can still possibly read many novels. 2.) They Implemented a free SS system which at best you can use to follow two premium novels but basically just one, guess why their user base increased?
                                  3.) Now they have removed daily free chapters as well

                                  I do like the app because its convenient. But Qidian... Is Qidian, so I pray they Qidian themselves and their whole bloodline horribly and painfully Qidians over and they get Qidianed up their gluteus maximus with acid for lube and pineapples as filler in Qidian for eternity 😇
