Geass11797 It's all in the decision of qidian as stated in their announcement.
"In the PFF, we will release one or more premium chapters from the premium titles based on a schedule"
Introducing the Premium program BETA, giving you advanced chapters!
So... basically if you're reading more then one premium novels you either pay up or have it's number of released chapter cut in half. Congrats on changing system where you can watch ads and get chapter (you know... nice one) to something that will anger a lot of people.
Flaffy Why would you pay for SS? xD
What have you been doing with your SS? Seriously? I currently have 1700 xD Still accumulating everyday.
Okay, there are so many anti-qidian in a qidian forum it's hilarious(well not that many). They are so obviously hammering the premium beta, when you can actually get free premium chapter everyday(aside from the normal chapter release), and still have additional free SS everyday. Seriously, good job guys, good job. Support your favorite website instead of maliciously hanging around here xD. Whisper Yeah they say they support and love that website so much, that they keep reading there while having their adblocks on, talk about being a hypocrite. whisper
Aaron_Blake Angering a lot of demanding people, sure yeah. They have always been wanting more for free. Seriously qidian should just block every chinese novels in the current market that came from their chinese website and make it legit. So we won't have these complaining people, given free things and complain because they can't have it all.
ucoqid No i mean in Internet, not in CDs
Ifusnipe did what?
Leo it depends on you how you would handle your habit on reading there novels, why not play outside and wait for the following chapter for free... that is not totally a bad thing for you. Just avoid the spoilers.
Clone You know there is nothing in this world is free for a quality kind of service. sometimes we must know and consider the effort of the producers..
Clone and at least they still provide other option to read the novels.
Hyper_pumpkin like i said, pirate. you have to pay too in the official site. man.. they made it for commercial purpose.
Noire No one said anything about paying for SS, and I never said I was, so please do not spread false information without reading correctly. I never use any of my SS and I signed up last year, I only have 450, because they kept expiring and I do not do daily check-ins cause I'm not rabid reader like everyone else seems to be so please, stop with the accusations and assumptions, it is not appreciated.
I don't support and love any website, I am a consumer and am very much allowed, whether it's free or paid to hold everything I AM CONSUMING to a standard. Just because you buya ratchet computer at bestbuy that the "Geek Squad" fixed up for you does not mean everyone else wants to continue using the same junk k?
It didn't really matter when stuff was free because it was like who cares it's free, but as we got more comfortable we realized we liked the books they are cool, it's not like you can just go and pick this up in a library, they don't even have this stuff. I support the author, everything is a cog in the machine to get the authors voice to me. Qidian = Cog, employee's of Qidian = Cog, Translators = Cog, not to dehumanize anyone but generally once you are part of a company, franchise or even a movement you become unseen and everything is about the cause and not the actual you. So I don't care about Qidian, and I don't care about the translators, what I care about is the story, the quality of that story and how to make that story available to more people and share with everyone I know because essentially that is what people write, that is what people do art for.
Of course we need companies like QIdian to help spread the art, and when a company starts to abuse something, or not take the best care of the artwork, I have a right to complain and so should anyone else. You have no right to tell people to be grateful, and yes no in so many words did you say so but let's get real we all know where you were going. So stop being so grateful and start getting critical because the more grateful you are the more chapters they will begin to take from you until you are left with no new releases and your SS? They might just go out the window, so what about then? Should I tell you to be grateful you got to read even a little bit? Oh sure I don't mind tell you that, I might even put on a brilliant smile for you then.
[Disclaimer: I am in no way saying that Qidian will not continue to have free users, just trying to make a point that there is a possibility for such things to happen and being grateful will probably lead to such ends]
ihateqi As far as I know, reading the other chapter or advance chapter for free ads block is also appearing for service itself but i dont know right now..
14 chapters to 7 chapters per week
Sounds good to me as long as you dont have any mistake in your translations. There's plenty you can do to waste time waiting for the chapters.
Noire This can be complicated. First of all if they would do to that the a piracy will start being a thing. Till now you could just watch 15 sec. ad and get your entertainment. Those demanding are happy (15 sec. isn't much time) and quidan get's add revenue. With paywall, especially with a lot of chapters behind it quidan could loose those people and revenue for pirates. Second, right now, most of those chapter either free, or easily accessible can have some mistakes in them. Like, i love RtW but even i with english as my second language can recognize that translation quality can... change from time to time, with paywall, and license those mistakes are inexcusable. You're paying, you're rightfully demand quality. Third one, i think that blocking those novel could be more complicated than we think, with law and contract negotiations.
VirtualFrappe how about fixing the log in button first on their application for android and ios user.. it was very disturbing to found out that you can't read a novel cause you can't normally log-in just like what you did before.
Noire I dare qidian to block ppl, stop saying the same thing again and again.
What do you mean by demanding ppl, ppl who visit qidian increase their hits and traffic which means a decent ad revenue. It's not about right or wrong it's about what the majority of your consumers want.
DarkLordMisty via. Paypal?
ucoqid Have you tried download movies that showed in cinemas 3 yrs later?
Barewolf I like the personality and perspective that you see for the improvement of the everything.
