Neverfire7 You've answered all the ones I remember, I had already found the answers before reading hence the confusing dialog.

If you can find out where the exclusive ad viewing for SS can be found then that could be added. I find a lot of people mentioning it but there is no actual evidence for its existence that can be found.

You could also add the best way to get a response from Qidian (assuming email?). Also a list of people who represent or partially represent Qidian on the forums (if such exists and is allowed to function as such).

It wouldn't hurt to describe how the current premium system works as well, although I am not sure that enough of that is set in stone at the moment. Some of it can be found in Qidian's book of answers, Premium to free release speed and pricing format. Don't discount the people who don't know of or don't bother to read Qidian's answers to questions as they are typically hard to find and somewhat vague.

    Please include do's and don't in the forum. Seeing what happen to gibbs even after he reads the toc, some people might have doubts. And the poor guy had been banned 3 times lol.. each with different offense i believe..

      Tugster It was supposed to be a list :sob:

      Autarch_GRIM Badges are pretty self-explanatory right? Hmm, I'll add something to explain what they mean, I guess.

      Is this not what you're talking about? \/ <-- pretend that's an arrow pointing downwards

      Neverfire7 App users can tap onto their profile, click ‘Get Free Spirit Stones’ and watch ads for Spirit Stones.

      APassingMe You could also add the best way to get a response from Qidian (assuming email?).

      Lol, I'll try to find out a way, but I doubt I'll be able to answer that question any time soon

      APassingMe Also a list of people who represent or partially represent Qidian on the forums (if such exists and is allowed to function as such).

      :sob: That's the tech team list I was asking for... I'll have to wait a bit before I can get it though. I'll definitely add it once I get a list. I made a sort of guessing list, but I'm going to wait for an official one.

      APassingMe Premium to free release

      Hmm, I don't know what the rate for premium for free is, I'll have to dig around for that

      APassingMe pricing format

      As in buying Spirit Stones? Or do you mean explaining premium chapters, because I wrote a bit about that?

      APassingMe Don't discount the people who don't know of or don't bother to read Qidian's answers to questions as they are typically hard to find and somewhat vague.

      :sunglasses: that's why I linked it at the start :smirk:

      Thanks everyone for your suggestions! Much appreciated!

        Neverfire7 Ah, so it's app only? That explains why I didn't see it. I don't use the app, even on my phone.

        I think the Premium to free release is 7 chapters a week, but who knows for sure.

        On Premium, I mean more of the detailed info. I didn't read the links so you might of already covered it. Like how the price per release is based on word count and how if you purchase a premium release you have to wait for the free releases to catch up or continue purchasing premium releases. It wouldn't hurt to do a price per chapter comparison so people can budget their premium reading if desired. This would be be taking SS (about to be 50 per dollar) and breaking them into cents. I'm a big fan of immortal mortal so I normally end up purchasing 2 releases a day from that novel. That ends up being almost 50 cents a day if my free SS is already used. But it varies from novel to novel, probably just do the math and make a table. If 2 releases purchased a day, assume that free SS can cover it, 4 costs 50 cents a day and 6 a dollar a day. That gives readers the chance to budget and choose which novel they want to put their SS towards.

        If I think of anything else I will try to ping you.

          APassingMe I think the Premium to free release is 7 chapters a week, but who knows for sure.

          If a novel become a premium novel, then they'll release premium chapters every week, as well as a lesser number of free/ regular chapters. The following will happen, for example:

          Premiumised(?)
          Week 1:
          Free chapter released: 342,343,344,345,346,347,348
          Premium chapter released: 349,350,351,352,353,354,355,356,357,358,359

          Week 2:
          Free chapter released: 349,350,351,352,353,354,355
          Premium chapter released: 360,361,362,363,364,365,366,367,368,369,370

          Week 3:
          Free chapter released: 356,357,358,359,360,361,362
          Premium chapter released: 371,372,373,374,375,376,377,378,379,380, 381

          etc etc, you get the point. You'll still be able to read free chapters, it's just that they'll come in lesser amounts. The release rate for premium and regular chapters are based on the translator's release rate, I believe.

          APassingMe price per release is based on word count

          Yeah, I mentioned that although the price for a chapter is roughly based on it word count, there are some other factors that affect its price (don't ask me what they are, I don't know what they are either)

          APassingMe if you purchase a premium release you have to wait for the free releases

          :thinking: Like advice for spending spirit stones and stuff? Something based off of this maybe?

            ElionAVL XYZ was just a placeholder I used as a translator. 'Why has this specific translator stopped pushing out chapters?'

            Neverfire7 the first ban was legit understandable since he posted a fanfic taken from royal road website. As for the other 2.. i dont really know what's the landmine.

              Neverfire7 When did you get hired?

              This is something the team should be doing. Something like this what I even asked them to do. An official only post updating all questions.

              KingBiBiK So I suggest making an Offical only Q&A thread when an event is going on. Only the official post in it. They quote questions and answer it. In this way, people will not make multiple threads asking the same but instead should look at this thread.

              You made a great thread.
              I don't know the website you made. I will check it. But I suggest you not waste your time doing this unless you are paid to do so.

              Don't tell me you are spy in disguise lol.

                Autarch_GRIM ...His avatars... His bios... his thread topics... The minimum age for a Webnovel account is 13... It really wasn't appropriate.

                KingBiBiK I want to help people. This seems like a good way to do it. :smile:

                Alright, a few of the discord invite links were temporary ones, they've been replaced with (hopefully) permanent ones
