This is definitely getting out of hand. That person just has too much god damn time and effort to waste.

The moderation in this place is garbage as usual.
I don't even bother with comments most of the time because they're usually flooded with exp posters.

    Can't we just IP ban the guy? I've been reporting all his posts but not one of the new accounts are getting the hammer.

      Zio thats what i was doing: enjoy the novel peacefully, upvote the top three "wall" comments and dont give a damn about everything else, just an enjoyable evening read and dont give a fart about this childplay in the comments

      but since Nijiya uses his 50+ accounts to upvote himself, there are 3 major spoilers in the ballpark of ATTENTION SPOILER! "snape kills dumbledore in book 6 chapter xy page z because expain" unavoidable below every chapter lately so when scrolling through the chapters you will get spoilered. this affects every reader of this novel and its just atrocious that the admins let this happen for more than even a day

      If thats the admin's official stance to customer complaints about harassment then i'll go read elsewhere, the internet is free after all and there are enough good sites without comment sections. Not gonna waste my time asking for quality assurance if the admins openly support bullying. Goodbye folks.

        Ilzow They will be banned in time, but not now. There's no way they can continue this for a year. Bringing attention to them is feeding the troll. Let them burn out, and we will delete the comments after that.

          You're kind of missing the point, which is countless people will accidentally read the spoilers. Responding to the trolls or not doesn't matter.

          Are you suggesting readers should ignore the the comment section for a whole year? Seriously?

          Or somehow magically forget having read the spoiler?

          Tactics like "Only read comments after you've read the latest chapters" won't work. Why? Not everyone can afford to unlock all chapters at once. Many people use free SS, and have to slowly unlock chapters.

          Telling them to ignore the comment section until they've read everything is ignorant.

          So, yes, Just dropping a line like "Don't feed the troll" is irresponsible.

            I do not know if your an admin, for this website forum or web-novels main website, but normally I agree with you on issues but you really are sucking up to your employer here.

            Siding with a troll, over your normal readers...

            Your response just motives me not to any send money on anymore SS until webnovel applies some common sense.

            Maybe when sales for that novel start tanking will you/your company will listen to your readers...

            Because if customer supports logic- is deal with it...

            ImBloo I'm not speaking on behalf of Webnovel. There's just no cure-all pill for this symptom.

            Perhaps you can give a better suggestion? Because a troll will just keep continuing and automatic systems aren't ready to handle such situations.

              CKtalon create a "report spoiler" button. If enough people report the spoiler, apply an "unhide" feature for the comment like you have in the review sections. Do not display spoiler comments in the top 3 comment preview.
              Reviews should also have a "report spoiler" feature so the onus to hide spoilers isn't completely on the writer of the review.

              CKtalon
              I don't know what WN's system is like for dealing with this. How's the automatic system supposed to work? Based on user's reports or something else?

              Is there even an option for a human to be involved?

              If yes, hire one or more people specifically for this task? Recruit volunteers and pay them in spirit stones?

              If no, how about improving the automatic system to respond and verify the reports faster? And (again) limiting the registrations to reliable email suppliers and not disposable email accounts?

              It's alarming to see this kind of thing being reported for months without any sort of satisfactory response. I've seen self-moderated forums that are better than this.

              I know you guys are understaffed, but this is ridiculous.

                CKtalon Nowadays I totally ignore his existence, but guess what? He stalk my profile and reply to my comment for every novel I read and comment before. Btw, here are the suggestion made by readers so far :

                1) IP Ban
                2) Create a 'report spoiler' button where it will hide the comment just like the review section
                3) Prevent multiple created disposable account
                4) Hire someone where his task to manage the trolls (readers can pay him using ss)

                  It's pretty obvious Webnovel only cares about ripping people off. That's why you have to pay at least a few hundred dollars to finish a single book unless you're willing to wait years.

                    Right. @CKtalon Around half a year ago, didn't you say something about how Cthulhu Gonfalon was only retranslated and stockpiling chapters for the past year or two? That it wasn't dropped?
