Alright, so it's been 3 weeks since the Official Release of Premium Program BETA, and I'm no longer as... against it as before. Changes in SS still hurts but... I digress. :sweat_smile: :sweat_smile: :sweat_smile:

There were instances when I ask myself if I'm going to join the Program and become a Premium User, but as the information provided was limited, I couldn't make a decision. Book of Answers contains copy-paste information from the original thread and is not helping at all, while end-user threads are filled with too much hate and one-liners. (no offense, just trying to be objective)

So here's a couple of questions I have regarding the Premium Program BETA and Premium for Free:

• Correct me if I'm wrong, I was under the impression that Premium Program BETA is basically Patreon lite, so it means joining will give me more chapters compared to what's available to the public?
• Using MMORPG: Rebirth of the Legendary Guardian as the model, currently, there are 709 released chapters (locked chapters start at c672). If I join the program, until what chapter will I be able to read?
• Using the same novel, if I'm a new, free reader and am stingy in spending bonus Spirit Stones, how long does it take for the locked (SS only) chapter to become a bonus (SS or ads) chapter? And eventually, how long until it becomes a free (SS/ads not needed to read) chapter?
• Does any amount of purchased SS make you a Premium User? Or do we have to purchase a set amount?
• Does it have a time limit? Do I have to purchase SS on a regular basis to maintain my status?

These are all the question I could think of for now.
Fellow Daoists, I only need cold, hard facts. I would appreciate it if Premium Subscribers, or @WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL staff could answer these questions for me, and everyone else who are wondering.

• 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.

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.
