I'm also a little bit upset about the bots. It's disrupting the new rankings really badly. Stories that only have 4000 views have over 85 collections. That used to be almost impossible because that means one time every 10 clicks someone is adding the book to their library. Frankly, for seasoned writers, it disrupts there sense of how good or bad a book is doing. It's annoying, and is going to make it harder to find high quality work.
Bots
Regnov Lmao!!!! This will sound sad..but, i only have 5 voters including myself. And, all this voter has commented on my story before. And, this comment are not a bot comments because. They sound human. Huhuhuhu
Guys, no need to panic. Your novel is so good that the robots fell in love with it.
Their creators could not give them enough intelligence as we are not that technologically advanced yet. So, they sound repetitive. You guys are just making them sad though this type of comments. I personally, love my robo-fans. They are adorable.
At first, I thought the bots were a cheer-squad made by Webnovel to encourage further writing...
Was this a stupid idea? I hope not!
Well, let the bots be. They've earned the rights to be in the human world. They are part of us now
PrinceofLightning Thank you for your view on the Robo-fans now I love them too.
Forlornium No, they are not. They are spambots from scrapper sites. They have nothing to do with Webnovel at all.
MatchaMilk can you rely on nothing? Sadness

Well anyway the bots seem to have gone back into sleep mode for now.
According to my research on the bot comments I got, they were all between level 5 and 6, had only one badge, and began their barrage of comments from 11 to 8 days ago. Every one stopped suddenly exactly 3 days ago. All their comments were to authors with few chapters. The most I saw was one author with 23.
tigre900 i wonder what type of cult the bot is planning right now!!!
Carciphones_02 You never gave the link to your novel, I would love to check it out

Regnov you want to see it!!?? Wow!! I will be more than happy to share it with you!!!!
I don't know if my story is up to your taste, anyway..
It's the story about a girl who received a task to save unfortunate evil girl from many different world based on novel and comic together with a robot system that hate her.
The general idea is pretty cliche. But I tried put in different touch inside the plot.

Carciphones_02 I added it to my library, I will read it tonight, it seems short tho only 13 chapters!!
Regnov ah.. yes!! Sorry bout that!! I planned to stack chapter and updates daily in 2 weeks.
Wow after reading this whole thing I just feel even more sad... because I don't think that I'm getting either! 1 review (definitely from a human) and 60 collections (probably going to drop or raise a bit, idk) and 15k views!! IN TWO WEEKS!! I don't know what I should believe after reading this, and if all of that was all a lie (which from reading this I am almost expecting it) I might just use another site for my story (or stories, I'm unsure if I want to turn my book into a series or just have a really long book) The world we live in man, smh.
Each time you refresh your browser on we novel, you get 100 views
FluffyBunnyKing282 Now I am in a dilemma, since I have only been uploading my story for 2 days and I already have almost 30k views, I come from Wattpad and it took me 2 months to get 30k views, I mean wtf.
Oh wow, it's been a year since I've been to this forum, and what do I find? Exactly the kind of bs bandaid solution that I'd expect from this site. Imagine using a reCaptcha just for posting in a forum. It's hilarious, even, that the bots are so egregiously bad that they had to do that. Makes you wonder if posting is even worth it.
