"Even if you dont buy it, thr routine updates will not be affected at all. You can still get what you usually can read everyday."

Now this is the answer I am looking for. THank you. I thought that the privilege chapters are locked and only those who buy more SS can continue the access to the novel.

      Piokilek people are panicking because first, the rules are not really clear and not mentioned from the get go. You have to click the help in order to see the rules and even then, it is still confusing for some non-native English readers. Second, in patreon you don't have to pay AGAIN in order to read the aforementioned chaps you are supposed to get. In THIS system however, aside from paying the privilege fee, you still have to spend another ss to unlock thosr chapters itself. Webnovel keeps giving analogies instead of properly addressing the issue. People wants to get what they paid for.

          WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL but why is this now available and so pricy? 7SS to unlock a CHAPTER at regular updates, or 50SS to unlock a CHAPTER early? That is shocking. Doesn't feel like a privilege. I understand that it is just an option for people, but that just seems a little over the top. And while getting chapters early is great, at that price, it in no way feels like a privilege. Are those chapters permanently unlocked after? Is it only for that 1 story? So you would have do do the special unlock for each novel that has it? What is the month/time restriction for? The description that comes up with the ? Isn't very clear.

              Xenamurai They are proper nouns, not normal adjectives or nouns.
              Elite refers to the now removed monthly subscription system.
              Privilege refers to the recently introduced advanced chapter system.

                  Xenamurai Because I was replying to someone about it. But here you are, barging into the conversation without knowing what we were talking about.

                  You don't really know what proper nouns are...don't you?

                      -_-

                      Xena, agreed with alot you said previously... But... CK is right.

                      Regardless of this being public space and anyone can jump into a conversation, you skipped past the "without checking the context"

                      CK clearly stated they were replying to someone and you jumped in without looking at the earlier remarks to grab context... So both of you please, stop fighting eachother and instead turn the animosity back towards webnovel where it is so readily deserved?

                            For the first time in 2-3 years i think i will quit webnovel... the elite subscriptions was wonderful when they end this i had to go back paying 100-150€ / month (with a 1400€ salary) to follow the novels i love and find new one to read (1000-2500 min of reading time by week ) and now i would have to pay 4000 stone which is 61,5€ to keep having the last 50 chapters ...🤢🤮 no way i'll go back to LNMTL or try wuxia to see if they are more reasonnable. While having to pay 50€ or even 100€ monthly for an all chapters free solutions like the elite subscriptions wouldn't have scare me 😞...

                            Sorry for the grammar conjugation and all i'm not an english native just a fellow novel hooked who even learn english for this...😢

                            Xenamurai Saying that I lied because you can't read? Stop jumping into a thread without understanding what's happening.

                            Elite subscription was compared to Netflix, not airlines.
                            Privilege was compared to first-class seats.

                                I think the idea itself is fine... though it is just milking us more, its still a company and they have to make money so not that surprised. What I am not fine with is that there will be novels doing less mass releases or reducing their current release rates to stockpile more chapters because of this.

                                Do not bother saying this will not happen. Because it already is happening. I find it quite the coincidence that The Legendary Mechanic suddenly went from 13 chapters a week to 7 a week 1-2 weeks ago. Consider my words empty if they do not jump in on this new system... but the the signs are there that they simply heard of this new model and started harming their normal release rate to stockpile more chapters just so they can jump in on this new system too.

                                That is kind of were I draw the line. That said I am still a sucker for the novel and will probably end up paying anyway. But that doesn't make me feel less abused.

                                  Yeah I also was wondering regarding mechanic chapters.

                                  The original idea is to prepurchase chapters, but webnovel don’t actually sell you the access to the said chapters. selling a list of chapter titles is not a service, more a scam. Regardless how much their forum employes argue.

                                    Xenamurai. I too was suckered into is scam. This is daylight robbery. Shame on those who deceived us. They all "Jeremy Hunt".

                                      If I understand this privilege scam correctly, you spend stones for the privilege to see the chapter title not the chapter content. Pity this wasn't clearly stated otherwise I and I'm sure nany others wouldn't have spent so many stone.
                                      Sorry of the Jeremy Hunt reference in the heat of the moment. 😉

                                      Xenamurai yep yep

                                      On Scarlet_Rain 's thought, i picked up MMORPG: The Almighty Ring a month ago, on friday mornings it has a 12ch mass release (its standard is 2ch/day) and was included in the "privelage", today it showed 62 chapter unread status... 12 dumped. 50 more for "privelage" so perhaps SOME novels that are well stocked with translated works will keep doing mass dumps, others... Probably not, just gotta wait and see
