  • Is it just me or are a lot of books suddenly requiring SS for chapters?

No, this is it, I'm not reading from here anymore, it's INSANE!!!!
I just looked at one book, 100 chapters NOT locked behind SS stones, 8 HUNDRED chapters needing ~8 SS EACH to read... if I wanted to read the whole book (in less than 2 years waiting on free SS) then I'd have to pay over 120$ and that's just for ONE FREAKING BOOK!!!

No, I'm done, webnovel used to be great but now it's just gone insane with greed.
Oh, and I have spent over 100$ so far the past few months because I didn't step back and look at what I was doing. So, I was stupid but no longer will I waste so much damned money that will never go to the person who actually wrote the book.

    Ugg, I've spent over 70$ just in Feb of this year... I am so disgusted...

          If you're a binge reader then the new system works just fine for you

            CKtalon I understand why are the originals premium, but you turned premium even translated fanfictions

              CKtalon Not even Microsoft is as greedy to charge for every little chapter... 120$ for ONE book, and that's just so far what's been translated. I understood paying a few SS to get the latest few chapters but wanting SS for hundreds of chapters of each book? Yeah, no. There isn't a fiction book written that's worth that much from every person that reads it. That's probably 10s of thousands of dollars, per book.

                Junkymagi Then go for the elite membership

                Then you pay (i think it was 25?) each month and you can read all you want ;)
                I will make it that way i use my ss up and than go for elite

                  Skaz Elite? Wtf is that? I've been reading here for months, why haven't I seen anything saying there was an elite status avail??

                    Junkymagi You must get the app for this, then in the profil section is the option to that

                      Skaz Ugg, wish I'd known, could have paid for 3months from what I've wasted in Feb alone if I'd known this existed... still have ~1000 SS from my purchases, refund and get 2 months of elite?? :(

                        Junkymagi Is it even possible to refund the purchases? Why don't you just keep the premium SS for gifts or for the future..?

                          Junkymagi I dont think a refund is possible digital purchases are permanent in most cases. But ask an admin i am not sure

                          CKtalon Can you answer this?

                            Junkymagi tends to happen for newer books.

                            Depending on the title, early adopters get to read newer titles for free at times. Then the locking begins because it became premium or the series ended. In my experience the relock first happens at the end chapters then most of it is locked later on.

                            If you are a rereader, don't use this site.

                              Odd, there was a reply from someone agreeing that 120$ for one book, non professional writer was a bit much... did the writer delete it themselves or did admin?
