Misguided_Rooster Although I do mean that section as well, but just in general, you can review novels without reading a single chapter. It's ridiculous. Not that there's anything stopping you from clicking the latest chapter and then reviewing, but it would probably curb some people... right?
And as others have said, you should be able to rate without reviewing, I think there would be more 3 star ratings if that were the case. If a novel isn't good enough, I won't bother to write something, likewise, if it isn't bad enough I won't bother to write about it :P
Some might disagree but I think there should be a minimum number of chapters read before being able to review (or even rate). Most of the time the first few chapters start off well enough but after 20 or 30, you can clearly see the author's ineptitude.
Lastly, the star ratings suck. Why is translation quality mixed in with the novel quality? Their entire service is translation, surely we should expect good translations, why are we being asked to rate them? And stability of updates, lmao. What a joke.
But, like, Qidian.
