Just don't buy or spend any SS at all, well... I admit I bought some but now it's just soo ridiculously expensive!
this is the case for the old age microtransaction, free but somehow even more expensive compared to buying the whole item/game/anything.
I spend more money than the price of AAA games on warframe but they deserve it, you know why? because of their fair business and fair practice!
Webnovel/qidian on the other hand goes down the road of shameless practice...
Blackhawkrider I see what you mean, and that's the big problem. Voting helps to motivate the original authors. While comments do help, a lot of original authors still want to try and make their way up the rankings, it just helps them gauge how their novel has grown.
Also, the author would have to make a contract for it to actually go premium. The chance of their novel going premium is rather low unless it reaches up to top 5-10 territory, though I might not be 100% right with that info.
They always lack money. So what’s the best why to get some moneyy? say it is for the author AND the translator... so people will feel obliged to pay.
Literally psychology.. scums of psychology
ill tell you honestly, i had novels i follow here, but after all this bs with stones etc.... prices are insane for very little reward, id rather go play mobiles games and read on other websites when i find sth that catches my eye, hre i dont even check the power or other rankings, the only thing to read here is original novels until the author leaves because they get bs on their side as well as no support for their writing, hope this website dies
Shotgun9494 the author of Chinese novel like er gen, aren't they already paid by qidian?
Why webnovel also need to pay them?
webnovel in under QIDIAN and QIDIAN is under TENCENT......... tencent is a BILLION DOLLAR COMPANY........... bird of the same feather flock together.............
There are 5068 novels (were around 24 hours ago, the last @_God checked) and over 70% - 87% are dropped (I am sure of that but I will ask @_God to see how many are actually dropped). What do you expect? The site is turning into a damned wormhole of bullshit. There were some really good original novels that I liked but the authors dropped them since they had their own problems and they weren't getting the exposure they should have.
SweetsTomato Royalties. Since they are the authors and they still have some right to their novels, so web novel needs to pay them from the translations as well since that's how it works. Well, that's how it's supposed to work but no one will ever know if that's how it actually works.
What if I paid for SS's, unlocked a bunch of chapters and now they're locked again, after I paid to unlock them.. what then?...
bluerat I wonder if the royalty from WN is higher from qidian since the ss price in WN tenfold higher than qidian
Randomizer Then you need to contact the administrators. WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL, CKtalon, etc and report it to them. Once you give them the photo of your SS spent page, they should unlock the chapters. Many others had this problem.
SweetsTomato They are supposed to pay higher royalties even if they have to pay the translators. But as I said, that's how it's supposed to work but no one will ever know how it actually works.
SageOfThirteenRose try mine out! Unlikely to go premium anytime soon T_T
