  • 【Important Announcement】Monthly Elite subscriptions adjustment

Rhueless WELL. 2 simple fixes for your frustration as we all had that issue

1) never go back and rebuy past chapters... Dumb move. Just keep reading from where you were last. Cheapest fix for ya

2) download the novel. Even after subscription ended, just go offline and read whatever you downloaded and it costs 0$ extra

I’ll say this again, rate them poorly on the app store/google play! I been seeing a bunch of 1-2 star reviews recently about these same issues which is great. But now I also see fake 5 stars reviews that you can tell are probably by Webnovel staff. Take a moment to rate them because that’s probably the only way we can get their attention.

Cornep that was their "issue"

With SS what we pay to unlock a chapter went straight to the author/editor/translator. So figure 8 stone per, for 1000 chapters (2500 for 49.99$ means 150$) per reader (if the reader binged all 1000) then the subscription came, 25$ a month to read anything and everything... But. That doesnt go straight to the author/editor/translator... Which the authors etc complained about, naturally, because their income took a major crash lol, especially those popular works who got millions of views per chapter... 8 stone for 1 chapter, 100,000 views... 800,000 stone... After profit splitting even at 10% thats at least 150$ for the author for a single chapter. Maybe more or less. How do you profit share with thousands of authors on a 25$ subscription bought by ... Ill say 100,000 people

So yeah. W.N. shot themselves in the face with that move, screwed the authors etc because i am fairly certain the subscription was not covered in their contract and thoroughly shite on readers who took the economic option and then got shut down and now it has been weeks since W.N. even bothered replying to our complaints and questions

KylarVanDrake i did just that you can actually find several of the novels from this site other places for free i have no clue which site had the novels first and i do not care as long as i can read all is well... supporting authors is of course the better choice if you are given the option but being stabbed in the back by greedy and unscrupulous sites is more than most good tempered readers can bear...

So i emailed their support asking if elite member ship is coming back and got the is reply.

"dear:
It is not yet determined, please pay attention to our follow-up notice, thank you for your support.

Warmest Regards,
Team Webnovel"

Not

TonysMafiaMen It is nice of you to keep supporting the book and the author O(∩_∩)O
If it is of any interest for you, you can find the book for free (I’m sorry for the author) on other supports too.

    Not buying another SS until subscription comes back!! So if this is about $$ you just lost it. You really should have a replacement ready before you discontinue.

    gabrylleblisz agreed, I spent all my ss on sending gifts to authers I like and now I can't even afford to read anything.
    I'm stuck to reading a single novel because of lack of ss, and that after this fiasco I don't even want to buy ss separately anymore. They could have offset this by allowing the daily and weekly ss you get for free to be permanent but even that only lasts for a week/ month so you can't even save it. If anything this monthly subscription should have allowed people to read more chapters and a larger variety of novels and set a steady stable income to the site in the form of monthly payments, but instead we now have people going back to making new accounts everytime their ss drops low. Monthly subs would have offset this problem somewhat. Well the problem could have been that people were reading too much with the novels, I was personally reading 150+ chapters a week so maybe that's the angle they're viewing this from?

    maybe everyone should install bluestacks on their pc and just abuse multiple google accounts,

    i doubt the authors that complained get anything for people only reading with free SS.

      Well guess i have to read the devils cage on the other sites again. Damn shame .Loved this app but the spirit stone with South african Rand is really expensive and premium member was perfectly acceptable price for my budget. Hope you can get this back soon .

        Looks like i was a bit lucky since my membership lasted till the 19 of April

          I am so upset as you guys did not make it clear that the premium subscription was not something stable, and I can guarantee that I will no longer be reading the novels on here until the premium subscription comes back. I understand that authors need a way to make money, but this is upsetting as I loved the premium subscription and was so happy about it that I donated almost all my spirit stones that I bought with real money. I know this may mean nothing to a company who has no reason to care about it's readers so I guess my feelings are a moot point.
