Also, does buying spirit stones make you a premium user?

Eriri why did you replied to your own post? #Lol
yep, become a premium user by purchasing the stones.

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL its a win win situation. I hope for everybody success.

Well now I'm just going to give my stones to novels I don't like so they can become premium. I can't afford to buy stones just to read the novels that I enjoy if they end up all going premium. I can't support my favorite novels anymore. Really sad.

I support you, Qidian. I will stop reading the premium titles and stop voting for them. It is time to read the other unwalled novels.

How excatly do you become a Premium user? I don't see the option anywhere

I would rather just have a annual payment like Crunchyroll- if Crunchyroll can do anime with ads and w/o ads on premium which costs $$$$$$$$$$$$$ to make and syndicate - I would think Q could be able to do their pay wall on a reasonable basis

Hyacia premium referes to chapters

I see a lot of angry people. But you have to realize that authors, translators, editors and other are a job. They need to earn their share and it's business. Asking someone to provide something you enjoy without giving back remuneration is illogical.
I just hope that QI can implement monthly subscription in different package.
Example
package A 5 novel of your choice
package B 10 novel and such.
Or monthly on each novel depending on readers choice. Instead of one subscription for all that will be hella expensive and redundant coz most people don't read all the novels.

LittleHuge there are people who share the same thought as you.
join them here, maybe QI'd consider it if there are a lot of readers who wish such subscription system.

LittleHuge most people do understand that author/translator/QI deserve some profit... it just this new system stone cost is unreasonable... it increase from 4 stone prior the system to 18 chapter (the highest i've seen)... mean sudden 4.5times cost increase... if only they introduce this system with original 4 stone price first saying it BETA price... then slowly raise the stone price until find the right balance... most people might support this new system...

This system also have major flaw... the newest locked chapter of RTW (premium novel)... already hosted in some pirate site... they buy stones and unlock those 10 advance chapter... host it in their site... got ad revenue and profit... this will eventually lead to QI lost lots of "real reader"... free reader is of course... and most small spender and some medium spender will also leave to pirate site... since they have 10 chapter advantage without reader need to pay at all... this will left QI with small community of medium and big spender... and pirates also... ... this will hurt translator and QI in long run...

Hope QI reevaluate the stone price to unlock chapter... my suggestion... for now... cap it at max 9 stones/chapter... people will be repulsive when they see 2 digits stone number... then reevaluate again later... of course since lots of reader already angry... QI could sooth the mass with 4 stone original price for certain period of time...

This is only suggestion... hoping that translator did not get negative effect from this new system...

I hope i get a serious answer on this even tho im a little late.
I want to pay for SS, but i cant pay with PayPal because of my country rules regarding Dollars, isnt there any other option for paymen?

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL There’s a loophole that if no one updates the app, no spirit stones have to be spent and all chapters are completely free

HJC The first explanation regarding to the chapters that going to be read by both user has no problem... but I would like to qoute *how is free user that don't pay anything should be at the same level as premium member?Now i would like to answer this in my own view point when it comes to limitation and possibilities.. It depends on the readers perspective why he/she comes to read novels or lets says their perspective when it comes to catching up the stories... you want to enjoy your time then just read the novel in the other hand you want to be on the same level with those who are more ahead than you then you must take your money from your pocket and pay to be a premium user.. it depends on you.. no force. or anything that pressure you to buy their chapters.. If you have the chance to buy the whole novel then, buy some novel on available stores.

Estriole well i guess you should count the days of the chapter to be released... cause that is how chapter is being released for free users. guess they must add some notification that says that this chapter will be release after a day a go somehow.

LeDirectorJP I think you can buy SS with google pay ? tried download the app and use it to buy SS
