  • Premium Program isn't like Patreon. In premium program the number of chapters not available to public will increase as time goes by.

  • MMORPG has 2 chapters per day release rate. Only 1 chapter is unlocked for free per day from the bottom of the list. So every week, premium pool will grow by 7 more chapters. By the time it reaches chapter 1000, there will be 183 premium chapters above you if you go for the free route.

  • Once you start unlocking premium chapters, you can't stop, since the free chapters unlocked are the same for everyone. So even if you unlocked up to chapter 700, it will still be the chapter at the bottom of the list which will become the next free chapter. That would be the chapter 672 right now. You can calculate how long it would take for free chapters to catch up with 1 chapter per day rate. Tho i would recommend having the conviction to unlock till the end of the novel if you decide to go with the premium route since waiting for chapters to catch up might take months according to how many chapters ahead you are from the free chapters and all the chapters you unlocked so far will be pointless spending. You should just wait form start if you aren't sure that you will keep unlocking chapters.

  • Bonus ss works the same as bought ss. You can unlock chapters with it.

  • 'Premium' is just a badge you get when you buy any ammount of ss. So the title has no advantage.

  • Once you get the badge, you will keep the badge forever.

      N0xiety Alright !!! Thanks for the info !!
      Ooooh I totally misunderstood the Premium Program BETA, I thought there will be a separate pool for chapters compared to Premium for Free (lol).

      I was basing it on the info from PFF:

      Premium For Free is established as a long-term event for all readers who may not able to afford the entertainment cost of reading chapters. We will release a few chapters of our Premium titles to the public on a periodic basis. Readers can use this catalog to track the release schedule.

      It was so confusing lol. :cold_sweat: well...
      Glad I asked. Now I can answer my friends' questions to a certain extent. :grinning:

          Veldora Well, since they said it's an event, there is always the chance that they go full on premium in the future with no free chapters, just like how it is in their chinese site. But i think that will lead to too many people leaving and resort to piracy, so i doubt that day will come.

              N0xiety Well, I'm almost numb to them. I keep hoping that won't happen, but...
              Meh. Once that happens... we know what's gonna happen.

                  Silky1351 The 2 gene ones, 'The strongest gene' and 'Super Gene', and another romance one

                  EDIT: Today, we are welcoming two gene series 《The Strongest Gene》and《Super Gene》, and one of the most popular romance stories - 《Full Marks Hidden Marriage: Pick Up a Son, Get a Free Husband》

                      Lomacris I dropped strongest gene from long ago since i felt the premium was coming. It wasn't that good of a novel anyways, i was just reading it for the f*ck of it. These days i can't even bring myself to start a new novel since i know what the future holds... The more novels i read the more costly it will get so i will just stick to one or two of my favourite novels from now on. Used to follow 21 novels, but it seems pointless now. Now i only follow about 5 novels and the rest is picking up dust...

                          N0xiety I'm doing the same. I have a lot of books on my library but I only check for updates on 4 and occasionally catch up to one on my library, and Super Gene was one I started reading again last week. It will be pointless to even start reading new novels, as popular novels with a high release rate will probably turn premium and unpopular novels with a low release rate are not that fun to red, with the sporadic/slow updates.

                            6 days later

                            I want to spend the least amount of money to get the premium badge because somewhere in the future it is highly likely that the price will increase, likewise, it may not. Qidian is growing and once it becomes huge it may be for the best or not, lets just hope that Qidian does not become a money grubber once they take all our money XD

                              N0xiety I've said it many times in threads. On the international level the fire here is 10000x worse than just China. Also like you said many will go to piracy and set up reddits (one which already has been up for a while) where new chapters of each book upload here then transfer over to the Reddit/site people use. Anyways long story short if qidian is intelligent and doesn't piss off the international level JUST to make money they will be fine. Hopefully a staff member actually sees this 🔥💪🙏

                                  Yvelt Does the badge mean anything? Will it give you special attention? Sorry for all the question

                                      Antoin Other than more power and energy stones per day, nope.
