How excatly do you become a Premium user? I don't see the option anywhere
Introducing the Premium program BETA, giving you advanced chapters!
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
will the release rate be increased or is this a one time thing?
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.

TheOneInYourCloset i love holes, especially the one with loops! xD jk
LeDirectorJP I think you can buy SS with google pay ? tried download the app and use it to buy SS
Rokuman_24 I'm so disappointed to what's happening right now, I'm so excited to read the new chapters of some of the novels that i'm reading right now.
Tertium Well I see, it was, but I dont know if it was different from paying via web... different method of use.
Youryum Sorry to hear dear but, you know development always comes with a good level of production of quality novels or products.. that is how our economy works.
Rokuman_24 huhuhuhu T_T... I hope they would do increase giving free SS so that I could read more chapter without wasting my money, I'm not even rich tho to pay some money for any other alternative .
Rokuman_24 agree that free user and premium user should differ... but if QI charge too much and not reasonable when increasing the price (4 stones before new system to 18 stones now mean 4.5 times stone increase)... people might run to those pirate site... FYI... release the witch latest unlocked chapter already hosted in some of pirate sites... this mean they buy stones and unlock the chapter... host it for ad revenue profit... if the price is not reasonable for low and medium spender reader... they might follow free reader to go to pirate sites... since they host 10 locked chapter for free... this is bad for translator and Qi in long term... you will lose free reader, most of low spender reader, some medium spender reader from community and left with big spender and pirates...
Basically i agree with new system... but alter the stone cost for now... think of it as BETA price... and evaluate it as the system go... you can raise it slowly until it reach balance between reader, QI, translator...
Like everyone else very against change that impedes my reading addiction but I do want to support so at the very least give the unrestricted ability to watch ads for 1-3 stones a piece and I'll spend a good 30 minutes plus with only mild complaints watching ads for stones for premium chapters.
