Veronica8 Agreed. There are many interesting stories with unique and new plot but most of the readers always chase for the popular one. It never cross their mind to look for the unpopular one that is a top-notch quality. Based on my observation females are more active in supporting and voting in their favorite books that's why the books they'd read are often in the highest rank.
The end of Webnovel and the start of Wattpad 2
it's only because some of you are too lazy to use powerstones. girls are just more active. but guys are more generous. while some of the girls use free ss to gift fl novels, i noticed most gifts to ml novels are premium ss. it's pretty balanced in my opinion.
The10thCrow idiot... ml novels earns a lot. i bet more than fl novels. especially with the originals. male lead novel authors earn more and consistently than fl novels.
The10thCrow and the reason why fl novels are on the rankings... tbh, i don't want to vote powerstones for ml novels because i know how many ss are needed each chapter-- either double or triple of a normal fl novel. when an ml novel is pushed to the top rankings, we all know the faster it is to be a premium.
DsNtRecognizeMtTai what ever it takes
Reinesse This alone proves your ignorance of the gravity of the matter. You didn't even bother to read some of the other comments before replying. Yeah no im not gonna reply to the same question twice.
The majority of sites likes, those that cater to fiction consumers, always begin that way and then the crazy rapey vibe stories begin to appear. I understand you're upset, I am too. I'm new to the site but it kind of bugs me that most of the works featured on like ads and stuff are the female oriented cliche shoujo manga stories literally ripped from old shoujo mangas.
It would be great to see more titles that didn't all have the same premise of the demoralizing weak female protagonist only gets by because ML is a bad boy sk everything is gonna be great again. It sucks. But we have to face reality.
Better novels will be shucked for these shoddy pieces because people like staying in their comfort zone, even if it is a sexist, egotistical and rape romanticizing one. If we want this to stop, then either we get a new site or we try searhing for more low key good artist that aren't at the top but could be there if in plot alone.
Hard thing to do but it's kinda a way...
Resplendently hahaha, I use imaginary countries as well. The biggest reason is because of how easily triggered someone would be if I say that a bad character is from ie US/UK/Egypt...
Poche Never said it was strange. It’s quite common actually.
Just saying I would enjoy stories more if they put in some effort to actually name places properly, even fictional names. City A or City B and Country A or Country B, so does that mean City A is in Country A? Or can Country B have a City A as well? See, this just annoys me. And then the whole alphabet? City XY? Pft. Nope.
Chryiss If they put in the whole alphabet no one would remember which is which.
[unknown] I'm not against using imaginary countries but when using it, make it realistic

Nah I think you’re overthinking it a little... Though I see where you’re coming from. Even Translated Female CNs have the highest count of Stones/Views. Which is unbelievable. But that’s because, let’s admit it, a lot of trash Novels out there get pick up so by process of elimination it’ll get high ratings.
As for the Originals, I think it partly has to do with the promotion WN gives. I think it’s still to soon to judge and decide this is becoming like Wattpad lol. There’s still stories out there’s that give it good competition.
P.S I completely agree with you that female MC novels are copy/paste and end up with the guy who abandon them or impregnated them lol. I’ve seen it too many times to count, just reading the summary makes me say: ‘Oh boy, I know where this is going...’ lol. But not all novels are like that I’d like to think
I also have this impression, that it displeases some people is perfectly normal, it gives us the impression of being misogynistic when it's more realistic than anything else.
Actually, yesterday, I moved on to the dark side of the force by writing a story with a woman CEO as MC. Please forgive me. I'm doing this to confirm if having special tags, a name with CEO in it and a whole bunch of other clichés in this kind of story is really what makes it popular.
Maybe I'll come and tell you how it goes over time î_î
Had the best laugh ever reading this post... Thanks for the entertainment @The10thCrow Sadly we are losing more and more ranking spots as time goes on... The end is already upon us...
The10thCrow You don't have to worry. Most of the FL novels are so low level and paint women in such a shallow, crappy light that the trend will not last long.
I am female and seldom read novels with FLs anymore.
I question if those novels are written by women.
Resplendently Yes, you can use real countries. But I think using City A or Country B does not restrict you to a particular country. Even I am using City A and City B. I have done away with surnames. So that the religion or area of the character is not typecaste. The story can stand for any country, any region or any religion/ no religion even.
The10thCrow Lol...
