Heyyou Let's say I go to a restaurant. I see this new thing on the menu and I order it. Turns out that it's too spicy for me, or I didn't like the taste, or it's too oily/greasy. What do I do? I either force myself to eat it (because I don't want to waste it) or I just waste it by throwing it away and not eating it. Then I pay for the food.
I don't go and tell the waiter, "I'm not going to pay because I don't like the food." That's not how it works. If you do that, you get arrested for dine and dash.
If I go to a bookshop and buy a book, and I end up being disappointed by it (and believe me, there are a lot of books that are pretty bad, even though they supposedly go through professional editing), I don't go back to the bookshop the next day and demand for a refund. That's not how it works. If I buy an amazon novel and find out that the quality is terrible (and again, I have seen a lot of self-published Amazon novels that clearly lack a professional editor), I don't go and claim a refund. That's not how it works either. I can't lodge a complaint and demand a refund based on "I don't like the book" or "the quality is bad." Not unless the book is torn, tattered, the words are illegible and the print smudged, or the mobi file that I downloaded from Amazon into my Kindle is corrupted or tainted with a virus, I have no grounds to claim any sort of refund based on "the quality of the story is bad" or "I hate the story."
If I go to a video shop and buy a DVD, I can't just go ask for a refund just because I thought that was a terrible movie that was horribly directed. I can only ask for a refund if the DVD was broken and it doesn't play on my player. I can't demand for refunds just because I hate the movie and think it was trash. It doesn't work that way.
So your example completely backfired on you.
Furthermore, why the hell are you using spirit stones to unlock a story you consider as "s" quality? The first 100 or so chapters are free, and if you've read enough of them, you should know whether they are worth investing your spirit stones/coins in. The f are you doing, investing coins in a story you know to be "s" quality, and then complaining about it? I don't go complain about having to pay $12 to watch Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker if I don't like the movie. I just don't go to the cinema and watch the movie, simple. I don't go to Disney and bitch to them about "why should I spend money on a movie that's certain to be terrible?" - only a super entitled "fan" will spout such rubbish. Furthermore, you probably realize how stupid you sound when you start whining about how people should be allowed to watch movies for free and only pay for it if they like it. No, that's not how it works. It costs money to make a movie. A lot of money. And the people working in the cinema, selling tickets and popcorn, cleaning up the theater after every viewing, running the projectors, etc. also need to be paid.
