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.
Boycott
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

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.
Haha
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.
Flaffy I am glad someone else agrees with me on this. I was just curious when I started reading this post as I think that boycotting won't solve anything. I am certainly not against the website and translators getting something back for their work! But I certainly can't accept Godbrandy's behaviour of insulting potential clients. As a translator working for Qidian, he must understand that he is representing the website. He can't go and ruin their image like that. It's something he should absolutely avoid.
Sirocco So that's what icon do in their profile?
