Webnovel complains why that the "Ads are not enough" even though something like "Youtube" exists, and got tons o f creators making millions off of it, while Youtube itself makes billions, and it's all free content.. but nah ads are not that good, well maybe because they you only put ads on the last 2 chapters, which is useless, if you've put ads on all of your chapters, like permanent ads "Unskippable", here you go.. easy money.
But of-course you're choosing "Lose popularity" path, even people with 10k spirit stones are complaining.. good luck with that.

    Guan_Zhong "Just an accent"? It sure was. Made me want to throw up.
    If they did subtitles it might have saved them the money it cost to buy that third rate translator.
    This translator even cut out stuff that the author said and simplified it. I believe second to last statement/sentence.

    Why is everyone saying they have to drop the novel as if the Premium will block them from reading the novel? All they did was add +10 chapters novels ahead that you can read by paying SS. It doesn't stop your current reading rate of 1 chapter per day.

    Everyday 1 free chapter + 1 premium chapter, those who use SS to catch up to the most recent will have to unlock new chapter with SS while those that do not spend SS continue reading at the same pace.

    It is exactly the same method as Patreon that if you donate you read up to X chapters ahead, QI charges per chapter while Patreon charges monthly. Don't want to read chapters ahead? Don't be a patreon/spend SS. Just read like normal.

      Release more premium chapters for IM and RTW please. Do LoLT, RITF, and JoL too as premium chapters. I have too much spirit stones and they are expiring in a month plus :'(

      What mass release, this is no mass release. My spirit stones stockpile did not even dwindle. It is still piled higher than Mt. Tai. Let me give you a piece of advice. If you really want to force a reader like me to purchase SS which I am wiiling to do so (as a patreon supporter) You better release 100+ chapters in advance and put them all on premiums. That would be eye catching. Lam and Starve come on guys!

        Letrico yeah but on patreon if the translators release 4 chapters a day, patreon subs read 4 a day while leeches (like me) read 4 a day as well. With this system spirit stones spenders can read 4 a day while leeches are reduced down to 1 a day, and if say a leech decided he wants to read a chapter ahead by spending then he's gotta wait two days to read the next chapter. It's essentially the same as the patreon system except for that they're effectively kinking the hose for the cheap leech bastards

        Letrico nope it's not the same. Patreon users read x chapters ahead, but free and patreon user can read at the same pace. On the other hand premium users can read at the previously normal release rate whereas the free readers are crippled to 7/week. And since the release rate is faster than the free chapters are unlocked, the premium chapters pile up. If there are 7 free and 7 premium chapters week, in 2 weeks there are 14 locked premium chapters, in 4w 28c and in 8weeks 56chapters, so the pile becomes bigger and bigger. If you read premium chapters for 4 months and you don't wanna spend money anymore, you have to wait 112 days for free chapters to catch up...how is that fair to someone who paid for 4 whole months?

          is getting bad we poor people cant even read now so fucking sad

            Yakumo THIS ! you are 100% right ! even if we don't talk about the cost, just this is already a deal breaker !

              Letrico the problem is library of heaven path used to give at least 2 chapter free per day... so basically they reduce the free reader chapter instead adding 1 premium chapter... no wonder people complains...

              Jusso It is getting resolved by the end of Q2 this year. Some problems he had with the SARFT

                Jusso There will be a mass release once that is done

                  Autarch_GRIM LOHP author has been in the QI discord for a while now.

                    Zogarth1337 1 chapter a month is around a total of 70-80 thousand words, which is the length of a published novel. So $7 is a pretty good deal. You are also forgetting the free 30 SS daily, so you can technically read 2 premium LOHP chapters for free a day.

                      Jusso He did on his patreon, QI discord, LOHP discord, and the comments section (though that was EXPed away)

                        i am just poor reader maybe i will open this app after 2 year so the chapter will available for free

                          Jusso The IRAS is getting resolved with the SARFT. Estimated to be around end of Q2 2018. There will be a mass release then in the raws.

                            xurimx So Lon as the release rate, and stockpile is high.

                              Fuhrer Not really. 1 chapter a day for a month is around a total of 70-80 thousand words, which is the length of a published novel. So $7 is a pretty good deal.

                                DaoistFedUp YouTube is losing money every year. They have never made a profit, but instead losses of hundreds of millions a year.

                                  Zhang Xuan : lol, free reader got Face Smack from zhang qidian! This dao truly profound!
                                  Zhang Ye : yeah, this move from qidian truly profound!
                                  Zhang qidian : lol, you two just naive kid! by sealing 7 chapter per week we got many spirit stone!

                                    Yakumo How is that any different from patreon? You still have to wait for the free to chatch up with that.

                                      neerd1788 You can, 7/week. Not much difference than the previous 9/week

                                        dimas115 It is still free for 7/week, not much different from the 9/week last time. You are also forgetting the daily free 30 SS.

                                          Miegoreng It is still free for 7/week, not much different from the 9/week last time. You are also forgetting the daily free 30 SS.

                                            Looks like its time to say goodbye to those novels

                                              Oxy realizing the difference isn't really hard, you just don't want to understand the difference.
                                              Maybe you understand algebra - time to catch up if you don't wanna pay anymore according to a release rate of 14 chapters per week:
                                              t: time in days to catch up
                                              w: weeks you read premium chapters for
                                              p: patreon advanced chapters (constant)

                                              patreon: t = p/14
                                              complexity: O(1)

                                              qidian: t = 14w/7
                                              complexity: O(w)

                                              O(1) << O(w)

                                                well , i was really enjoying strongest system , strongest gene , super gene , LOHP and Mr CEO . but i guess i'm dropping them now. i was wondering when SSystem would turn premium after Sgene and Superg turned . qidian doesn't disappoint huh. f this shit . just 2-3 more novels left in my library , they'll turn premium and i'll stop visiting this site altogether . NICE BUSINESS STRATEGY , GREEDY CHINESE CUNTS

                                                Oxy 30 free ss? which world are you living in? its lucky to get more than 25 sometimes , and with so many good novels in premium , you'd need 50+ stones easily daily yo unlock all of them .
