-Make it easier to get SS. I'm still in middle school. I don't have a job. My parents will not pay $50+ to support my habit, and I'm broke. Getting a daily reward is not enough for me to satisfy my addiction. I have to ration out SS just so I can read all of the private novels I want, and end up falling so far behind in the releases that I just let it build up and never look at it again.
-Make it so that editors and writers can communicate on Webnovel. I don't know about you, but if I need someone to proofread or edit, I have to find someone who is physically there to look at it, and frankly, my family is tired of me asking. It would be great if there could be a special title or permission that would allow people to look at and edit chapters from an outside source before it is posted.
-Make it easier to organize your library. Things such as folders and sub-folders. Scrolling through two hundred books to get to that one book you haven't looked at in weeks and just thought about is boring and tedious, and makes me just want to give it up altogether.
-Don't make popular novels private. (This stems from the first one) If I start out with a novel that is free and halfway though it it goes private, I end up putting it down and moving onto other public novels that are just as good.
-Refine your app. Even though it is functioning just fine, it looks more like a prototype versus a finished product
-Provide some rudimentary covers for authors who won't steal from pinterest and can't draw. If you look at the cover of the book I am writing right now, it is literally a splotch of red with a black background. I can't draw, but I need a cover. It would be great if there was just a pre-done template that I can slap the title and my name onto to create the cover of my book.
-Stop promoting your own stuff and letting the rest of us wither in the cold. All of the books that are one the opening page are either A ) private and under contract with Webnovel, B ) about to be A or C ) books that update daily. I don't have enough time and energy to put out a chapter a day, and after the first week or so, you won't immediately see it when you open for new original works. Nobody will see it unless it either because contracted with Webnovel or ranked. My readers are stingy. I get no energy stones.
-Let us delete novels. I accidentally pressed the 'create novel' button twice when I was creating my novel and my laptop was slow, and now I will have an extra empty novel until the end of time.
-Be flexible on the size of the covers of the books. I had the perfect cover but couldn't use it since it was too large.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head. Feel free to add : )

    1. I agree with the SS... though I get that's where they earn but I hope they are more friendly to giving SS to readers who don't spend money.

    2. Also agree with the better communication between users. The only communication tool they right now is the comment section. Though have this forum exist, not everyone really goes here and all... That's something I wished they would adapt from w@tpp@d.

    3. I think there are people who make free covers here. I'm not sure if I agree with you for the cover thing because that would increase the likelihood of similar looking covers, which means more difficult for certain stories to get discovered.

      Yeah, about the spirit stones...
      If it is too easy to get the price of it will get low. So they could make we do something to get them... Watching adds, or answering interviews...
      This way we could get more SS if we wanted to and the writers and translators would still recieve their part!
      The way it is right now even if we want to read more, the only way is wait or pay for it...
      As a result a lot of people just quit.
      I myself don't believe that I will be patient enought to continue for so long, and I really LOVE the stories that i'm reading right now!
      Thuth be said.... If you like it you want to read, but every time you have to stop reading because of the ss, and even if you want to pay, you will finish this story and start another one and stop again because of low ss again....the histories are long (i'm reading one with more tham 1000 chapters) and you have to use 4-11 to enable the chapters.... Even if you love the history... You drop it :(

      I'm afraid that if webnovel don't do something about it they will have serious problems in the future...

      Personally i hate spirit stones. All these locking nonsense (and now they are not just only locking the popular ones, they lock from volume 2 and beyond) is just getting overboard. Why dont they just put ads per chapters? It's making me give up a lot of books bec my ss cant keep up. I know it's just business but they ARE going to lose a lot of readers this way... Too tyrannical 😩😩

        Erinemeow i would love it if they would put an ad for every private chapter, and it would actually be more profitable for them anyway since they would be getting paid from the companies for putting up the ads. the only thing i would be wary of is if they started putting ads on the actual page instead of just to access the chapter. like if there were pop ups or on the sidebars.

          FluffyKiller all of these ss issues and my frustrations with this app makes me want to give up reading CNs altogether.. Or go to another app. I started with TKA, so maybe it should end there...once that gets finished, i'll be thinking of uninstalling. As someone who gets attached to certain novels, it's going to be painful but it's really not worth the hassle, imo. 😢

            The fixed the daily SS to 8 and that frustrating 1 chap a day GJ qidian(sarcasm) and go to hell you monetizing greedy douches. Some of my fav reads went here am regretting following them here. Its a frustrating daily 1 chap. NOT GONNA CUT IT unless you in the current chap its gonna stink to high hell. Its not any better than a pay wall. Its a money trap. Am leaving, no regrets but the single fact that I can't read these novels to the end! but It just burns you out reading 1 chap a day and you have like 3 novels. It was better when these guys were independent with donations now its just about money.
