  • Premium chapter release for Library of Heavens Path is unacceptable

TitaniaPrime There is something most people don't understand, it isnt the translators that are to blame but Webnovel, they introduced this money grubbing system. After all is it normal to pay more than 10$ monthly for so little ? What of those that follow many stories at a time ? I do not think even half of what we pay and is generated by the ads is payed to the translators. Webnovels became famous around the world thanks to the efforts of independants translators, it is now an opportunity to make money for some company. So I think it's normal to complain.I may be exagerating a bit but did you notice ? On this forum, you can only like post, not dislike them :p ( Sorry for the mistakes, I'm french)

    Yakumo no, qidian give translator choices, and starve pick his choice by himself. He choose to become premium translator. And i remember someone said the premium translator must translate at least 14 chapters/week. I forgot who said that. He can get another translator, so we can get more chapters weekly, but he also chose not to do that, because he want to monopolize this novel. That's why i'm angry.

        Tomz The translator has no say whether the novel goes premium or not. It's the bosses that are in charge. If they want the novel to go premium and the translator does not agree, well they are replaced. They do not have the rights to the novel, they are paid to translate it.

          You were not paying for any services previously, and are still getting a service free of charge. The service has just slowed down. You are under no obligation to support the translators if you do not want to, but please do not have such an entitled attitude.

          Tomz Its 11 chaps a week not 14. The translator said it in one of the latest chaps at the bottom. Read and be informed.

            A_Baby_Seal Yeah because the importance between a patient's life and a chapter of a novel has the same value, very nice comparison. Also, get fired? A boss forcing his employees to work despite having health problems and/or family problems isn't really a boss who's worth working for. Our family runs a business and we care for our employees' health, mentality and emotion, we don't force them to go clock in when they're sick or has family issues, we give them time to sort their shit out because having them clock in in an unstable state would only worsen the problem..... Oh wait, you don't care right? Because you would just fire them. A nice way to handle a business right? "You missed a day! You're fired!"

            I get the feeling that you're the type that would complain about a missing extra free ketchup packet even if you already have one and don't really need it.

                A_Baby_Seal actually, many doctors refuse certain types of operations if the risk of malpractice is too high. In some cases, even if the doctor is confident in their ability to perform the procedure, the hospital will not allow it.
                This is a very US centric example though since US lawyers are overly active in seeking opportunities to represent clients in malpractice law suits.

                TitaniaPrime Qidian international is targeted at a Western audience. Of course readers are going to have Western ideals of service. In the US, an employee is lucky if their employers recognize that illness can impact performance and give them time off so that more time isn't needed to fix mediocre work. It has almost nothing to do with altruism but profit. Welcome to capitalism.

                      A_Baby_Seal Stupid baby seal these are the facts:
                      exactly 1 week ago LoHP was at chapter 615, now after 7 days we are at 631. Including the chap 615, the release rate is 17 chapters/week. What more are you asking for? Let me quote yo for your stupid comment before you say anything more stupid.

                      A_Baby_Seal No its at 11 chapters a week. Read the updates and don't make false comments.

                            Whoever said Words are stronger than Action Don't take it seriously, I think he may have said it in a hangover.

                            Another thing:
                            Why would qidan take back its decision which has basically given than 500% more profits....

                                You are wrong. Yesterday day translator himself said that LoHP is still 11 chapter per week. Novel page display average number of chapters per week. There was more chapters last week because translator wanted to catch up to where patreon chapters were.

                                    Whatever you say dude. 17 chapters were basically uploaded in one week not 11.

                                        You should be grateful , that series translation quality are still decent.
                                        Try reading MMORPG : RLG , they charge premium price for slightly polished MTL.
                                        THAT is what unacceptable.

                                          profiterole Starve's kinda famous in the web novel translation scene and to be fair the translator for MMORPG: RLG is known to be shit and the first translators roped in by qi's money.

                                            clupean At least the movies end after a few hours, and we know it. With the number of chapters running into thousands for each WN, just imagine how much spirit stones we would need. Enough to cultivate into a transcendent immortal imo.

                                              KoraL western when it's international? Then it should be Qidian America not Qidian International and truthfully most countries in Asia barely read and speak Chinese like me, so not only does it target western audiences, but rather it targets those around the world interested in Chinese webnovels. Not arguing with you though, I'm highly disturbed at how a lot of westerners sue for the most ridiculous things, false accusations and very very minor things. It's kinda scary tbh if somehow you've triggered a nut job for just existing in America and sue you for profit.
