Flaffy You overshadowed the other culprit so much that I didn't even understand who it was 😥

Me defending qidian in this forum isn't going to change much because only a very small fraction of the user base is actually frequenting this forum. The opposite is also true, no matter how many people you see complaining here, they're not even 0,1% of the total users of webnovel.com. That's the reason I find this thread stupid, complaining here won't change anything (especially since it's not even constructive criticism but something a 3-year-old kid would do); only the decision of the silent majority will weigh on qidian's future plans or implementations.

      I'm not trying to argue but I think that those on the forum are the most loyal.... the best customers would be the ones that try to immerse themselves into whatever their favorite company has to offer... the forum being one of them.

      But I understand if you think that's false...

        I just have simple question and hope for a normal answer without any sarcasm.
        Did Qidian ever thought about a monthly subscription option or do they currently think about it (asking because we are still in the beta for monetization)?

            GodBrandy Funny you mention that, where should people actually go to be heard? As far as I know this was the only place is there another place? Do you think discord is better? Where should we send our grievances to? I have many and many suggestions starting with getting an actual FAQ and maybe a real reporting system? Should we send a letter in the mail to china?

            Who is this silent majority? Those that pay? If i pay a certain amount to qidian they will listen to me? Is there some process that guarantees that?

            I mean as far as I know all people have is forums and some email that doesn't give 100% assurance they are heard, you defending qidian isn't going to help anyone so I don't understand why you would do it the way you did instead of telling them a better method to get in touch or something productive. Sure it is not the majority of people here on the forums but it doesn't mean those that aren't on the forums don't also agree, no one has asked if users cared or how they felt, they just implemented it. So you cannot speak for how the people not on the forums feel. Even if you find it stupid, saying so is not making any of this better for you, qidian or the people here so I'm not sure I understand the logic? I thought people only posted when they cared about it? Do you care about us Brandy? Will you help us come to a compromise?

            I AM NOT BEING AGGRESSIVE I AM ONLY RESPONDING TO A REPLY. PLEASE FORGIVE ME.

                Why must people argue over a thing that has already been argued over for how many forum threads? This started with just a simple "Lets Boycott!" and now it's transformed into this slug fest where none of you talk without some sarcastic or hostile intention. I won't do calculations for now but listen to this. If you happen to have money and are okay with spending it, then spend it. If you don't then somewhere out in the world there is a old granny or hard working house wife that needs help! Heck i went around cleaning dog feces out of lawns for money when i was in middle school! If you can't find something better than that, and you happen to really love the novels you read (and aren't just addicted to them) then find something on par or worse. Even if all the novels on this site do go premium, i don't see QI leaving no retreat route for us people who don't buy SS (i spend my money on other things). If they really didn't then there is someone smart enough in the company to go "Oh poop, we dun goofd!". Morale of this rant is, go work, get a hobby to distract you from this site while you wait, and stop being condescending children when most of you are at a high school age. Don't send hate, I understand most of you.

                  adgsad On second thought some of you genuinely do talk seriously, I just have stuff to do so i cant read 94 posts. Do be calm and professional from now on whenever you talk about these things, passion is a dangerous thing!

                      What gets me is all these people saying they can't pay a few bucks because of their living situations. Y'all have a good enough life to have access to the internet, use that internet on one of the I dunno... 10+ popular survey and ad watching sites. Easy to dink around for 20 min a day and make $5-$10 PayPal a month. Problem solved.

                        adgsad when i read your comments, i feel like the tone of your comments takes on the personality of some old granny that's trying to stop the fight among her grandkids on a christmas day
                        "children, calm the F*ck down, there's enough toys and apple pies to go around. otherwise, everybody is grounded!"
                        which translates to:
                        "children, chillax, there's enough free chapters on webnovel to go around. if you continue creating this commotion, everybody is grounded!"
                        i don't really know how one would ground readers on here, so i'll leave that to your own imagination

                            Cilliez i think this is true. i believe myself to be a super customer since i'm on here and discord more than i'm on the main site

                                    He is studying the dao of the great grandma. So no worry to the people who can't buy SS. Just wait until Christmas and DelishPie will either buy you socks or SS. ( ͡°ω ͡°)

                                        GodBrandy I did not say you were biased, and even said that even if you were it would be forgivable due to this being your job. You have to defend your means to make money and anyone who cannot respect that is not understanding the basics of the real world. That being said I raised numerous other issues with premium that you have not addressed and would like to hear your response.

                                            I don't want to say this.
                                            But If you don't want to pay just wait.

                                            Just waitๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆๆ

                                            I'm surprised that English language doesn't have something like, or does it have?

                                              GodBrandy You misunderstood something.
                                              QI want each premium beta user to pay about 200-300 $ for each premium novel in the end.
                                              We want standard premium, we pay monthly subscription 20-30$ and get access to all premium novels without ss or something else. Not a problem of ads in other bonus chaps in other novels.

                                                  OldManDuotian A subscription is a good idea, but the reason the premium is like it is now might be due to a copy of the system on QI's chinese website. So the chances of subscriptions coming to be are very little.

                                                      Cilliez I don't understand why it's random. Please do tell me because i'm getting that alot.
