Tahes I literally debunked the statement by showing the current tasks that get you the fast pass.
Tomoyuki To sum it up, a single Fast Pass allows you to unlock a chapter for free (so it's the equivalent of 8 to 13 coins). It lasts for one week, so make sure you use it. You can get 3 Fast Pass if you introduce a friend. As of right now, you can receive up to 3 Fast Pass a day by doing your usual daily missions (checking in, voting with power stone, voting for energy stone) on the PC site. If you prefer the coins, use the app to check in and vote, and you'll receive 15 power stones (20 if you include multiplier rewards). It depends on what you want.
Whether you think this system is balls or not is none of my concern. I already said I don't know if the new system is good or bad. I was merely responding to some guy who scoffed at me when I said there will be tasks that you can do to get fast pass. He claimed that no such tasks exist and scoffed at me by calling them mythical even though I already provided concrete examples of existing tasks that do give you fast pass. I'm not sure what he's trying to do, but come on, I just literally gave you an explanation, and you still find something to complain about, and on something that is not true. Really? In other words, all I'm saying is, fact-check, clarify, and find out for sure before you start whining.
The minimum cost of a chapter should be 5 spirit stones, because Inkstone doesn't allow you to publish a premium chapter that's less than 1,000 words, and the minimum 1,000 words cost 5 spirit stones at least. Each chapter costs 1 coin/spirit stone for every 200 words and part thereof. 300 word chapters cannot be published as premium, and they would only cost 2 spirit stones at most, so I have no idea how you're doing your math.
Also, that has got to be a super-entitled statement I have ever heard. You get these spirit stones for free, and it's not enough. Now you want to use these free spirit stones for discounted novels or events and whine when you can't. Seriously? You're complaining that you can't use what you got for free for something that is discounted? That's like me taking a rationing coupon that I received from welfare, and then complaining to the supermarket that I can't use it to purchase the stuff that's on a discount sale. What in the world...? You know what the purpose of a discount is for, right? You know, for people to pay less and save money...and you're complaining that you can't use the coins you get for free for discounted stuff? By the way, you can't use Free Passes on stories that are on events. So that's a pretty moot point.
Additionally, Qidian has nothing to do with writers or translators' update schedules, as far as I know of. There is absolutely nothing Qidian can do if a writer or translator goes MIA. What, you want them to fire them or something? Take away their contract? If a writer chooses to drop his story out of nowhere, that's his fault and his responsibility. It's useless to blame Qidian. They don't micromanage our lives and supervise us to make sure we write. If your story is dropped, you should approach the writers or the translators directly (though that's probably difficult unless you added them on Discord). They are the ones who know best, not Qidian.
Also, the reason why Pursuing Immorality got dropped is because the translation team went MIA. Whereas the stories with 900 chapters translated have dedicated teams who are committed to seeing their project through until the very end. You call them shitty and don't like them, but you have no right to tell translation teams what to translate and what not to translate. What gets translated, what gets dropped, etc. are all down to the individual translation teams responsible for those projects. Not Qidian.
