I'm a new reader and I am interested in learning some of the ins and outs of webnovel society.

So often then I get to the end of a chapter to read reams of "thanks for the chapter","first!", etc. Sifting sometimes through 99+ repeats of the same junk to find some jewels of insight from can be gleaned from fellow readers. Personally I use the rate this chapter feature to provide feedback to the author or translator team.

⭐️ Chapter was full of errors, made no sense or didn't contribute to the plot,
⭐️⭐️ Chapter was uninteresting, I found myself skipping or skimming most of it,
⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chapter was informative but wordy, small errors easily ignored,
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chapter was great, well written and translated, very professional,
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chapter was exceptional, emotionally connecting, inspirational!

Do other readers use chapter ratings provide feedback and inspire authors to achieve better personal ratings with their work? If so, what do you use as your rating criteria?

    For me at least ,if the chapter was wll translated with no logical errors and no weird parts in between , it gets a 5star
    if the translation has problems it gets lower and lower ,with 4star being there were a few inconsistencies that break the flow of the read , and 1star being OMG did someone type this blindfolded and drunk
    My ratings remain mostly stable for the most part and rarely go 1star lower than the average for each story
    If a story gets a 1star ,it propably was MTRed or an original work and those don't usualy go very far here

    BattleLord I notice two conflicting things in your writing, at-least from my standpoint...

    BattleLord Chapter was great, well written and translated, very professional,

    The translators and authors are two different people... now if you are saying that you do this for both translated and original works, all the rating does for original authors as of yet is make them more or less likely to become contracted... however, the translators actually see it if I am to understand what @CKtalon said in my thread "Rate Chapter?" correctly.;,;.

          KimSasha I will take you up on your request as I am a firm believer in auditing and quantifying feedback so that resources and benefits for everyone can be achieved. During my working career I was auditing and performed audits of other departments and businesses that serviced my company. I never audited a novel before so consider it a first time assessment. I will take this opportunity to develop a model that might be of benefit in the future.

          Thank you for this opportunity.
