xmdvix I have no clue why they dont use something like Amazon kindle and for 15.00 a month you can read 3 books and then check books in and out when you want to read new ones. Like kindle unlimited. Personally trading real money for fake money to buy ingame content is we novels current model and while it makes a lot of money it doesn't expand the user base and long term readers will only give money on special occasions or just drop the platform. They treat webnovels like a mobile game.

Also the reading for spirit stones dicentivises me once I got past a certain point. For example I am saving ss to read my favorite novel and I need 1 more hour to get a 5 as upgrade or I stash my spirit stones for the reset of the reading goals so I can get 10 as in an hours read vs 5. Most days I log in to stash stones and then look for the weekly discount and I either use them when my favorite novel is discounted or immediately up until I hit one hour because there is a diminishing return on spirit stones in the middle of the curve
Sephiry Yeup, I agree. To be honest, there are so many novels and even comics that aren’t worth the ss they charge for and I think there needs to be some way to better manage that. Charging $50 for roughly 3000ss is a rip off when you have comics that cost 13ss PER chapter and some of these chapters are just filled with drawings and very poor content. I know, because I just read one today! 
it isn’t sustainable and as a consumer who pays for ss, we need to consider whether we are actually getting quality content for what we are paying for... So instead of pitching for ideas on more crappy contents, why not improve the current system?

The plot should a combination of comedy, face slapping and action. And the MC should be a strong minded person, person that sticks to the plan and not a coward.
WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL Please make it accessible from non-app users. Or just mention them in your post. It seems like quite an easy workaround if Webnovel is facing technical issues on making the page work.
I'm a fan of KoG (King of Gods), and I am currently reading the latest chapter 1250. The novel goes premium at chapter 185. At an average of 12 SS per chapter, new readers will require 12,780 SS to catch-up to update readers. If you purchase the 2,500 SS offer for $50.00, it will only run you $300.00 USD to reach today's release.
I don't know many book stores that run that type of scam, charging premium rates for out of date books. I know novels on your top 20 rating that bring in 10,000 of thousands of dollars each week are your cash cows. Don't you think reducing the cost after the product has been on the shelf for months and years would put you on par with industry standards?
My recommendation would be to reduce the cost of chapters more than a month old by 50%. Mass release chapters 6 months out of date at further discounts.
$300.00 buys a lot of excellent new releases from the top online book store and that includes audio books. Readers will migrate away if you can't remain competitive and develop customer loyalty.
WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL would appreciate if you can add in "Status novel: Hiatus"
Another halfa** discount again . .. They keep discounting the book like no ones gonna read . . .just discount that a in top 20 or 50 something

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL has the discount begun?? I can't see in any of the books I read
oh I thought this was the same with the previous survery, where you can simply earn SS buy filing up the survery form. Didn't know this is a raffle entry... well I should've answered better

I highly RECOMMEND THESE BOOKS.
I am quite a big follower with these books. For me they are highly interesting and totally worth your stones and time reading them!
1) Murder the Dream Guy
If you like suspense-detective-kind of a story, this is the best for me in Webnovel (in this genre). The gory scenes are very well describe. The details in the books is amazing, and I love how they uncover each criminal cases mysteriously. I feel like reading Sherlock Holmes Chinese edition
There is also romance included in the novel, though it is not the main topic in the story but you will love it. Gives off the same vibe with "When a snail falls in love" it's just that this one is like the creepier version which I love! the most.
2) Reborn as a Mom
This one is an original work. And I say one of the best original here. The story is a reincarnation type. Where the strong FL realizes her mistakes in her past life and would do anything to change the outcome of her past mistakes. The scenes are detailed and well described. If you are looking for a corporate strong bad ass female lead. Read this one.
3) The Wealthy Psychic lady : 99 stolen kiss
I love the Gothic style of this book. The plot is unique as I seldom read this kind of book in Webnovel. This book is not the typical chinese web novel. The female lead is a psychic and also loves money the most. You will love and learn a lot from her. Her compose demeanor, her capability to forsee someone's future is superb! and her ability to see ghosts -- for me is the best part. At the middle part of the current updates. Has turned into a criminal-solving-ghost-cases. Gives off the "Murder the dream guy" aura, which I like obviously.
4)Evil Empress Wild Consort
I am done reading the whole translations as it is already complete. And I must say it's been a looong journey for me. But I love every part of the story. her character developement is slowly but surely. Though there are some flaws in the story, like the female is hell bent on her revenge that is somewhat annoying sometimes. But overall it is worth the read when you're bored.
5)Employed Empress
This one is another original that I like. Unlike the typical transmigration where everything is with super power abilities, this one is the normal one. Though main female character is surely unique.
She brings her "futuristic" views and attitude in the book which is refreshing. And her handling the harem of the king is really funny. She feel like an employee to the king instead of the "Empress" and you will love her journey all throughout.
WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL Paging Qidian there’s a problem w/ chapter 286 of The Beautiful Wife of the Wirlwind Marriage; it became a cultivation chapter and I’ve spent spirit stones to received a wrong chapter update 
can someone kindly correct this pls. Translator might mistakenly updated a wrong chapter
WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL I didn't see the reference novel for this?
GegeSadewa Thanks for sharing the list

GegeSadewa Transcending the Nine Heavens
Yet another book getting locked away when it used to be free. 'Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss' being the other one not so long ago after well over 1000 chapters were freely readable. Disgusting considering how much time people would have committed before being slapped by it without warning. Got to pay to re-read past chapters too. Ugh!
I also seem to recall the translation quality in 'Transcending the Nine Heavens' going down at some point. I trust you'll go back and make sure the translation quality is high enough to justify charging for chapters now, right WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL ?
WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL unstickied the discussion.
For comics maybe we should add so that we could chat and vote with power and spirit stones because more time is spent on a comic then on a novel
please scale SS cost per chapter..
and consider this aspect :
- power ranking ( higher ranking cost less SS,so reader tempted to vote daily power status )
- double chapter / mass chapter cost more SS
*( encourage the translator / author to release more chapter/day)
**( i prefer this one for translator only, since new release one supposed to be mass chapter, and increasing cost per chap because of mass chap only let ppl down to read )
