What the heck is up to increasing the price from 4 stones to 12
I can see making stones pay to get extra above the checkin amount but the jump in price To unlock a chapter means that you will only be able to Read one lock chapter A-day at most Without buying stones With having 10 books on my list Means that I cannot read more than one A-day no way in heck will I spend As much money as I would need to spend to be able to keep all the chapters updated fully

congratulations you just ruined your set up

    UnhingedTaboo Go check the new premium system honestly much better monetization model then i was expecting iirc we are much better off then the people in china but havent check prices there in ages.

      I do not mind paying to buy extra stone what I hate huge jump in price to unlock chapters pr as the above poster said a variable price

      Even at 4 stone I was barely keeping up with everythingWhat this means is that would have to drop several of the novels and no longer even consider looking at anything new

        DaruneAlbane this only happened for select novels moved into the premium program and not all novels across the site.

          Wow, Qidian is really working hard to drain our SS hoards...
          With 1600+ Spirit stones, I'll be able to skip ads for a while, but that's quite a hurdle to the newcomers.
          I imagine the 100 SS welcome gift would bleed dry in a month, even factoring daily check-ins and the bonus from Power and Energy stones.

            UnhingedTaboo Yes, it's only a matter of time.
            I'll try to finish the stories exclusive (??) here asap, as I imagine the "pricing" would only get worse.

              All the change means to me and many other readers once something goes to the premium Side Would need to make the decision on which one of the premium we will read all the rest will get dropped

              What much rather have A monthly subscriptionThat unlocks everything and you couldn't use the stones to vote on the stories you are readingTo find all the subscription fee to the translation group that are doing your novels that you are reading

                so i thought now would be a good time to pull some concepts i learned from econ
                @WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL, imagine this graph

                alernatetext
                this is just a simple curve illustrating the relationship between the producer and the consumer. Now, look at what happen when you arbitrarily increase the price of your goods. the demand for said product decrease, and the quantity also decrease as a result. This phenomenon is what i think is happening here

                  Veldora how do you finish reading unfinished stories?
                  From what i know, i think they only finish translating one work so far, though i could be wrong

                    Miya Time to return to wuxia to dig new novel and maybe juat left 1-2 novel here
