MasterRabbink I appreciate the input. Currently almost anything would be a preferable alternative.

I hear that in China SS are 10% of what they are in our version of the app. It's actually disgusting. Qidian might be successful there, but if the SS model stays the same here, it will not work.

    I'm tired of trying to voice my complaints of SS, they don't care because of whales. Once you catch up just read it on another site because they don't want your money they want the wealthy peoples money. I've given up on Q.I as a company, if i was an investor they would be the last thing I'd sink money into.

      lozlo Wait, he's re-releasing the first book? WHY?! It was an example of super tight, near-perfect writing!

        BlackStarDeceiver You seem like a lovely, reasonable human being. But the likelihood of QI actually taking your advice is about the same likelihood as Rothfuss ever releasing Doors of Stone...

          NotADingo Well given his trend of actions over the years, Pat is just as greedy as QI when it comes to milking his work. He's done nothing but release card games and merchandise, attend book signings to self promote and now re-releasing the first book before he even finished the series.

          The mans getting old, he's reached the "good author dangerzone" of 60 years where all my favourite authors have died :S

          He'd better finish it before he knocks off. Especially since he's teased more books based in kvothe's world... maybe that's what's delaying him?

            bachingchung Since QI come from a country with some of the worst problems with plagiarism in the world, I find it hard to believe they won't copy something.

              At this point I'm just replying to anything that gets posted in here to keep it visible. Nobody will read it if it isn't at the top. Suggestions that aren't seen won't get any attention from QI.

                Ayu_Shiri_Dara Im currently on level 3 but the amount of exp required for me to level up is 1450. I thought it would be only 500?? According to the guidelines. Now im really confused

                  Like many others, I do agree the SS is getting steep. While I can manage to afford spending RL money to buy some SS, it also forces me to drop novels I enjoy and limit the amount of premiums I read because of the aforementioned calculation of how much it'd cost to read a full series (if ever completely translated). While the novels are interesting and fun to read on the go, I can't compare them to the quality and value of Western paperbacks that I can even borrow at the library. I sometimes land of errors and typos that I wish we had a "report chapter" to warn the author/translator/editor that since I paid them for a good read, least they can do is improve the quality of the chapter...
                  I can just hope QI will ever reduce the SS cost to match China's pricing...

                    While this is a good suggestion, it is fundamentally flawed, which is why webnovel would not be having a subscription service anytime soon in my opinion. Firstly, about 100 chapters only downloaded per day. A month has at least 28 days which means a minimum of 2.8k chapters in a month assuming the subscription is every 28 days. Secondly, about needing to maintain subscriptions over a long period of time as book requires time to complete. There is nothing stopping me from waiting until the premium novel is complete before subscribing for just 1 month, before cancelling my subscription again. In that 1 month, i would have been able to complete that novel and more, which would cause webnovel to lose out on alot of potential money.
