  • Important Notification: There will be no more SS given away after Jan.13th

Webnovel. Goodbye.
After I used up all my SS, i will leave you. And oh, btw, i just found a nice ebook platform where i can read much better books, and also i just find in their collection one or more novel where its say 'Privilege Chapters' in yours but its free from them, totally, no coins, no etc and the chapters are more advance than the set PC in your platform.
And it have many ebooks than yours.

Bye. Bye. πŸ‘‹

    Oh my God! Why you guys are doing that. It was a good app. Why are you trying to ruin it. If a particular chapter gets unlocked with either pass or ss then why the hell we are not getting enough pass or ss daily? I'm not able to understand your marketing strategy at all. You need to hire a new marketing/sales team now because if they telling you that the benefits will take time to come then I'm telling you, in future, most of the readers will uninstall this app....for sure. Really disappointed in you.

      YoungEmpress πŸ˜ͺ while I agree that I miss the term SS. It's still the same thing. 😣 Your leaving too? That's sad πŸ˜”. I seldom see any of the old readers from the start. The thing is with the new fast pass system, it doesn't benefit free readers. But it benefits the original authors, translators because they know they will get less free SS spent on their books.

      I know from a reader point of view this isn't good. But, we need to learn to adapt to changes. It's still possible to stack up fast pass. Your still getting free chapters. So there really isn't a problem.

      (That site you mentioned is most likely a pirate website. Books on Webnovel aren't allowed to be posted anywhere else. So yes, it's an illegal site)

        svats The only ones who will really uninstall this are the free readers. From webnovels point of view, they need to pay their translators, authors and editors somehow. All those new changes in the last update gave people so many free SS, that it was starting to hurt authors income. From the start privilege was supposed to be for paid readers. But somehow free readers managed to save up so much SS. Webnovel just returned it to how it was meant to be.

        Though this new update doesn't support free readers very well. It's still possible to read for free 😌 they haven't gotten rid of free reading completely. There are many free books on this site too.

        Veronica8 When they introduced this system last month. It was during the holiday season and going through a test run. So, it actually makes sense that the announcement was this late..

          How do I even use those points.....I really need fast cards....the last version was much better with the SS system

          WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL Let's all admit it folks, not all people using WN is liking this new system. You guys removed the means of gettting free reading method just so people will have to buy coins. I wish you guys could have considered that not all users and readers of WN are working and earning money. I know that they need to pay for the authors and translators, then they could have just made an update where those readers who pays gets a VIP service where only those who can pay can access to some chapters or functions of the app, don't offer SS as payment as most free readers save a lot of SS to binge read novels. Atleast charge it with money not SS. Not all of us can afford to buy membership or coins. I'd somehow accept this new system if you'd give people chances to collect coins through daily log ins even if it's just 3 or 5 coins a day. But tbh, that free pass thing you just created is just a ripoff, a reading pass for just one chapter and we don't even get to read it again after a day or two without using another pass to unlock it? Spirit stones were way much better, since the SS price is reasonable because it is priced by word count and we get to read it again and again.

          I used to love Webnovel, because it doesn't really oblige me to buy anything and I get to spend my free time reading relaxingly but now I can't. I'll probably stop using WN when the old system shuts down. I just can't accept the new system. I'm sorry but I also hope you guys can consider everyone's opinion about this new system and think about your beloved readers and their wellbeings. πŸ’”

            Yoshinocchii But tbh, that free pass thing you just created is just a ripoff, a reading pass for just one chapter and we don't even get to read it again after a day or two without using another pass to unlock it?

            Just want to clarify, this is incorrect. Chapters that are unlocked with fast passes will be unlocked permanently. But fast passes expire after 7 days, so make sure to use them before they expire.

            svats yes me and my friends will switch to another very soon

              This reminds me of Dramafever; great app/site in the beginning years, then it gets taken over by another company/new leadership, and it falls so low its existence is erased. Whoever is doing the planning and decisions in the last year of QI Webnovel are going down that same path in an even quicker rate. And not even listening to the majority of displeasure. Bad business. I don't understand what was wrong with the system a couple or so years ago. Ads make a lot of money, too. If they increased the ads, some people might still complain, but it'd be free while making a lot of revenue for the company (and people can still spend money on SS or to get rid of ads for a month). And SS as the system was the whole allure of Webnovel in the first place, with the Daoist and cultivation theme drawing in people. Back when most the novels were xianxia, wuxia, and xuanhuan (most male-oriented). I guess WuxiaWorld still exists for that. I was looking forward to the 100th TGIF and what would be done for the New Year, but it was just a big load of disappointment. I wonder if the original Chinese version of Qidian is as bad now as this? I'm still hoping with enough complaints or possibly boycotting, that'd they'd reverse the update... but it doesn't seem likely
