Since Im on the phone going to get drunk, i wont bother trying to let you understand reality. Sooner or later life will come and slap your face harder than you can imagine, forcing yoi to either accept the beating or learn the basic of this world to avoid another hit.

I never denied that there are ways to spend your time without paying outright. But you keep denying that you can enjoy novels here for free. In other words, people like you will come and leave, not affecting dedicated readers or hardworking authors at all. But from how far you are willing to go in this discussion alone, I can see that you are actually emotionally attached to this site, meaning that you are hurt by the changes.

While I understand that when you get something for free and suddenly.its amount decreases, you will be upset and sad. But that simply doesn't mean you are entilted to anything.

I won't go as far as to explain that most of the other sites are either pirating or working in short term, because the amount of money they make is simply too small to sustain it. You wouldn't accept the harsh reality anyway.

So all I can do is wish that your sites of choosing will last longer than they normally do.

And now a quick word of explanation.
To improve the quality of the originals, ypu need to pay authors enough to make them improve or improve schemes that will force them to do so. Fast pass (limiting the amount that people can read for free) is one of them, as it greatly increases the competition for readers.

If you want to translate new novels or improve the translation of others, you need to pay for it.

To improve anything you complain about in wn, ypu need money, and there is simply not enough users to allow you to sustain those increasing costs by ads. They bring just pitiful amount of money. Thats why i think, they are aiming to improve quality now. When it will be done, they might implement other schemes to increase the number of readers. Thats why. Nothing is free in this world.

    ace_cap Very well said. I hope people will get enlightened on what you said. The concensus are not asking too much, theyre not asking everything for free but to be more flexible with the changes, but we get others who will tell you that there's no free in this world. It sounded so domineering, very butally said without emotions people know this but saying it in your face is truly a face slap. I like how yanyueyue explained everything without really getting free loaders irritated she explains things with respect so to my fellow novel readers check her detailed explanation on the forum. I stopped voicing out my frustrations as I had seen comments from pro WN and how some of them belittle free loaders.

    uniqueokorie you have to pay for the coins with real world money if you really want to buy them for the prices that they are asking for on WebNovel.

        Heyyou true. The new version of WEBNOVEL you have to buy coins to read your favorite stories. Fast pass is not enough to enjoy the stories you love. Unlike the older version where you can earns spirit stones easily.

                        MotivatedSloth It's almost cute how you think you're the only one aware of how the real world works when your naivete keeps shining through. You can make all your assumptions about me and reading into what I write with whatever your comprehension gives you. I'm simply making observations and laughing at how superior you think you are. Good luck with the idea that you can charge readers whatever you like when consumers know they are not limited to this site for entertainment. And I'm not advocating anything, just stating the obvious. You can stay in denial all you want. People don't have to resort to piracy to be entertained. Hope you deal with disappointment well.

                          You see, I'm tired of hearing the mantras of people like you (people who use said mantras) and then claiming to be unfairly judged to be naive/misinformed/lacking in knowledge. If you were to hear some kid (just making an example, not implying you are a kid. I personally believe you are someone in late teens but before reaching the adulthood) arguing that there are no numbers lesser than 0 or even that 2+2=5, you will call them silly. But if you see someone on the internet doing the same, then you will be at first flabbergasted, and then angered when they start calling you names while hatefully trying to push their point while not using commonly accepted ways to do so.

                          My attitude towards you changed when I saw you using those mantras and misconceptions. Why can I speak out about ads? Because I used to manage some sites that earned from them. Why can I speak about ads on youtube? Because there is a great amount of people that explained this topic thoroughly. But what are you offering in your "arguments?"

                          So far, you are doing one of the four things and compose all your replies with mix of those.
                          1) Belittling me personally and thus proving that arguments (not sure about the word here, points I'm bringing?) can't be true because such a person like me brought them.
                          2) Using myths and half-truths. (like, tv is free, other sites are free)
                          3) Dissing the whole idea of paying for something that used to be illegally stolen and free, then turned to legal and free and after all this time, the rightful owner has the balls to demand some remuneration for their rights/license/hard work.
                          4) Coming up with something I never said, shoving it down my throat and using it to prove me wrong.

                          Looking at your post above, let me list out how its constructed.

                          1 and 4/1/1 and 4/3 and 4 and im too tired to take apart the rest of your sentences.

                          Look up ignorantio elenchi and ad homiem then look back at your post. You are making classic discussion mistakes that prove that you are using your emotions to argue, not fact.

                          This aproach to the discussion is way below my bottom line. If you want to recieve any response from me, then please, try to eradicate this kind of arguments from your post, describe in detail the logic behind your reasoning, bring references to the sources and authoritets you can rely upon. Then and only then you will be qualified recieve my response. I simply learned that there is so much better things to do than arguing with people like you in a hard way.

                          Wish you luck in improving your rhetoric.

                            Fast pass works out better for me because the novels i read have longer chapters, but it must suck for people reading the short female lead chapters that are like half / a third of the male lead ones yet cost 1 fast pass all the same.
