WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL Wooohhh! Yes its back

XD
Every time I visit a TGIF thread, I always wonder if it's a complaints thread instead. XD But I understand that it can't be helped because there are lots of expectations which are sometimes not met. Good luck to WN. Hoping for your fast improvement haha

The more i read the more im falling in with webnovel

Lanankuras i ill like to know most of my fellow readers

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL The main problem is a lavk of quality check on new novels. Both the female lead ones and the original ones.
The female lead ones are always romance. ALWAYS. The last non romance one I saw was Zombie Sister. And lately they all sound extremely similar. So it can’t be helped that we are unhappy. 10-15 romance novels with similar settings getting mass release as once? I would be as unhappy if it was done any other genre as well.

And sorry but THE. ORIGINALS.

So much... bad grammar, bad plot, PRN! Have you seen how many porn originals are being made??? And fanfics! And almost plagiarism! And the worse? The drown the -by now - few good ones.

There is a reason we choose Webnovel and that is QUALITY. If we wanted sh*tty, vulgar or delusional fanfics we would go to whattpad or anyother online reading platforms that aks almost nothing in quality from authors.

Please, remember that a punlisher is as good as the books it sells.

Nizze Then why not do it your way? Write! Write the novel that you yourself idealize! I'm starting to think that perhaps us readers have to actually do something about it, instead of just ranting about!

Write my friend, write! :-)

I humbly urge to those who are blessed in language and are proficient in writing to write those gems we now need. Don't just stand there in the darkness behind your screens, come out :-)

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL When will premium subscription be back? I’ve been really looking forward to it. Thanks for the mass release this week.

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL you should provide mass releases for novels with the most activity not otherwise. This just make the rankings useless.

Nehesa Yeah... that’s exactly the problem and the point I desagree with. I know english. I know what I want to read about. But I also know my limitations. I rather leave it in my mind than try to express it in a crappy novel. Have you seen the influx of novels based on mangás and & mixing it with webnpvel elements? Reincarnated as ccccc char, bbbb char with a system, gggg char transmigrated and loves me, yada yada yada. That’s the kind of delusional fanfic that’s invading webnovel. And honestly, aside the fanfic events like the RTW and BTS ones I don’t think fanfics should be allowed to freely proliferate like this. Unless there’s some type of quality check in place.
My mention of fanfics is due the fact many just put themselves in the place of a char and go crazy on it and that is a very well known not to do when writing. People do so on originals too, but is easier to see in fanfics.
The point is: if you don’t have and structured idea and enough confidence in the plots, chars, grammar and that you be able to write a decent novel and just want to get the idea out of your system then just make a blog for it. If every reader here went with your advice and started writing because they think like that can you imagine just what will become of this? Aint the originals section enough of a mess already? u.u
I know your intentions are good, but just pumping more novels there won’t help.

YulongYuXianTaiyin yeah. I think most of them should be deleted. As just some are ok. Should be 200+ chaps first done. Given to read. And only then publish here. They have forgoten. We want to read chinese novels who are translated. Not others fanfic.

Nehesa I think you're doing the wrong call to action. You really should say, "Edit, my friend, edit!" Because terrible grammar can be fixed with good editing. Although it doesn't solve terrible plot... but that's what power stones are for. It's too bad they can't be used to vote down, but they can at least be used on any of the rare good originals.

KoraL Yeah, it's a catch 22 with revenue opportunities. They used to have a Featured Originals slot that had a healthy mix of contracted/non contracted works, this changed to Trending Originals.

There's not much take up of non contracted books to these slots now. I think one or two here and there. Since the theme is trending, it looks for daily updates, over 20k words, views, votes and reader activity. For non contracted works, this is a hard ask.

If Webnovel had a robust AI search function to promote a variety of stories to readers and grant greater discoverability to writers, it will be far ahead of the game over Royal Road and Wattpad. This is their opportunity to take advantage. At the moment Royal Road wins on this aspect.

EmpressSK most of the comics on webnovel are taken up from other platforms. Then they change names nd update it super slowly here. Also they make it premium asking 13 ss per chapter.
Whereas on other platforms the same comic is super cheap with a better release pace.
For example, the comic u named as CEO's replacement bride is available on webcomics under the name CEO's Substitute Bride nd it is already completed.
Also they ask for 30 coins per chapter but they also let u earn 60 coins per hour login, 10 coins for being online every 5 minutes , 150 coins for daily check-ins nd 30 coins for every free ad watching.
Also other examples are :
1. Dont be too harsh(webcomics) as dont be too rough master(WN)
2. Pure girl(webcomics) as flaming hot desire (WN)
3. Adonis next door (webcomics) as Piss off prince charming (WN)
4. Love like cherry blossoms (webcomics) as Primose Love(WN)
5. Love between you nd me (webcomics) as Toxic Love(WN)
Nd many more...........
All comics are going on the webcomics way earlier than WN picked them nd the update stability is much better than webnovel

In short, WEBNOVEL is a COPY-CAT in terms of COMICS cuz the content is exactly same just WN CHANGES the NAME.

Yuki_Qing Yeah, ikr. I think WN being in a group that's a subsidiary of Tencent allows them to republish here under a house agreement of sorts. Why change the title? I guess it's a translation thing.

Nizze First of all thx for replying. Second, love the way you put it :-)
