derangedlol what are you talking about, bao works for ww and has every financial incentive for QI to fail as hard as possible lol. you realize i'm the translator for RTW right. i get paid for spirit stone money.

this is way better than patreon. lets take bao's, which is at a similar release rate to my own book. to stay 10 chapters ahead it costs you $40 per month on emperor's domination. patreon is the biggest scam ever. $40 per MONTH dude. RTW costs you less than 8 cents a day for less than 3 dollars a month. he just translates at the exact same pace just like we do except he charges you almost 10 times as much per chapter lol. you're getting scammed and you dont even know it

      Estriole no problem thanks for your feedback!
      the exact cost and formula for things might change in the future, its just the release model itself that we want readers to get accustomed to

          Good luck and success!!!
          Author, translator, editor and all of you who bring this to us is the best, 😍

            The system Qi implements right now is tugging my heartstrings

            Meh

            Hah! I don't even read RTW x'D But very funny, Meh.

              Estriole WEBNOVEL this new system is not too good and might need improvement... i have unlock some advanved chapter (about 4 or 5 chapter) and then next day i realize today free chapter is the one i unlocked.l yesterday... so i lose one free chapter here by unlocking it... maybe some small compensation... maybe partial stones returned??

              Estriole if its truly happened, open your own thread/discussion, tag it as report bug. they'll answer you asap (probably)

                    actually i know this will happen and i know its a must because yea every business need profit but there is only few problem with this program.. here it is

                    i know it say advance chapter so u need to pay with spirit stone to unlock chapter that is ok but this advance chapter in not being implement right just like how most translator that use patreon... if u want to follow like patreon at least follow it correctly...let say patreon user can get 10 advance chapter than what is post as u can say free chapter that is post in web so that to say u implement this u also need to unlock free daily chapter that is suppose to be release daily not like now where all new chapter is lock... if u want to do this like if that novel have 3 free daily chapter everyday u at least need to unlock 3 chapter for free/add watch like before and add 3 lock chapter everyday... that how patreon work this premium now... sorry to say it ignore the suppose be must do daily chapter

                    Meh Lmao, I love how you paint WW as the bad guys here, but conveniently ignore the scummy practices QI has done to WW, one of the founders of the Chinese webnovel translation community who has always tried to do the best for users. Remember contract agreement then the DMCA right afterwards? Remember copy and pasting? You're almost as bad as CKTalon. By the way, did you even bother to read it? He never directly bashed QI. He outlined the directions it could take: 1. retaining the status quo, 2. making it worse for readers. The fact that you're so defensive about it is both hilarious and concerning.

                    Oh yeah, you also conveniently skipped the part where RTW release rate is being cut in half for free readers. I personally don't use patreon, but if I wanted to spend money, I'd feel better about spending more money on Bao than spending less money on this shitty conglomerate. The fact is that if you're not a premium reader on Qidian, good luck trying to finish a book because god knows how long it will take. For a free reader, then you're actually translating at around half the speed of Bao. Great analysis and comparison. Honestly, if you've learned anything from the whole CKTalon incident, you really shouldn't be trying to defend QI, because face it, you're as big of a shill as you claim Bao is. At least RWX and WXW has always supported this community.

                      AreYouTheEye it's not a bug though... since QI model is working that way... you pay 4 advanced chapter... but the next 4 day... the free chapter is the one you paid... being premium reader means you forsake all free chapter...

                        Meh i hope so.... actually QI got major negative respose because they increase the stones cost for bonus chapter along with implementing this new system... i think they should release this system with original 4 stones per chapter first... but also state this is beta... and tell reader this is "promo price"... stone perchapter price will increase after beta finish... etc...etc... then after the system accepted... try to formulate the price and increase it "slowly"... that way reader could accept the system positive vibe first... before implement the price increase which always give negative vive...

                        current approach make people feel repulsive...because those two ilreleased at the same time... which give this system negative vibe...

                            The stupid thing about this system is that anything you purchase will become available to free readers a day later. If you wanna stay ahead of the free readers, you need to pay for every single chapter that comes out, and that is gonna be much more expensive than a patreon. If you use stones to read a chapter early, and you have no intention of buying them on a consistent basis, then you will have to wait longer for the next chapter since you have to wait for them to go through the chapter you just read.

                              Ze0ns yes... that's why i suggesting some small incentive (partial small stones refund) when free chapter comes out... but we already unlock it... or else unlocking chapter means giving up on all free chapter that we could get...

                              Or... decrease the price for unlocking the chapter...

                                @WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL. Just a suggestion... Why don't you implement the premium like this.

                                For example, there's already 14 chapters a week, what you'll do is add more like 7 chapters a week and set it as the premium chapters. Not halving the releases for a week.

                                JrExceed Euh, some novel that i will not name that is not even in the top 20 charge between 14 and 18 ss a chapter... just him alone will cost you about 150 ss. That is just for one novel. If i add the other novel i read i am close to 300 ss and i am refraining from reading all the one i want...

                                Qdian seem to be forgetting that not all of us use USD has a currency so we need to add the exchange rate in the math.

                                    I wish they would just implement a subscription base instead of this type of thing. I’d rather just pay a monthly fee instead of this.

                                    try to copy patreon but they too money grubber so they fail...they didnt unlock the suppose free daily chapter and add new lock chapter and yes like someone say this is worse than patreon because at least patreon is like 1~ 1000 buck a month and u have steady advance 10~50 chapter than other reader but here every chapter is must pay overtime u pay like 10 time what u need to pay patreon to read same or less chapter

                                      Meh amen.. tell them meh... keep up the good work u can even boost more chapters of rtw if u want too i believe alot will churn money on rtw.. and yea compare to petreon this is cheaper as a petreon member for KoG and for GGP's BTTH i can say this is way cheaper and i can manage which chapter i hnlock which is the best since i mostly skip the church talk and the recetly added soul appartment talk im rtw hahaha
