Aibele I have 15 novels in library 5 is premium and 1 is going premium on april 11th(nooo)
HD usually 3 chaps daily i think-9 to 12
TM usually 2 chapters daily-14
AGM 2 chapters daily-22 28
BNW 2 chapters daily-6 to 8
IRAS lets just say 1 chapters daily-8 to 11
so the cheapest i costs # 62
while daily i am getting 10 from voting
6 to 16 by checking in (might be wrong)
6 to 16 by watching add (meaning you have a smart phone)
lowest is # 22 while the most is # 42 so daily i am losing about 20 ss
I cannot afford this website...
My only concern is what is QI's limit? As in, 2 months ago the price of 1500ss was 9.99usd whereas now it is 33.99 nzd - my query is, will the prices continue to rise? or it is set? I myself have 1060 ss and I don't mind paying because at least I know that some of my money is going towards the author. I could be reading on a different site where it is pirated, but I am a big believer in backing those who desrve it. Wuxia novels introduced me to my love of literature and I don't want to feel like the spark which brought me to this wonderful place of enlightenment, is being taken advantage of. I understand that this is a big business but I just hope that they still leave some room for the loyal patreons. To reiterate, I do not mind paying, I just hope it doesn't get to a point where the community is being taken advantage of.
Daoist_Lightsouth will the prices continue to rise?
When did they rise? The only thing which changed is that the promotion time for the bonus is over :thinking: https://forum.webnovel.com/d/4122-last-chance-for-amazing-bonus-spirit-stones
LemonAid0708 And 20 SS is literally 40 cents. You can't complain with that.
Morinu if you continue to read for like 2 to 3 months it adds up 90 * 20 = 1800
1800 if you just use the 50 ss thats 36$

I agree with some of your suggestions, I originally wanted to "go premium" I decided to sit back & watch the fallout, see how this system operates & then make a decision.
Truth be told I think that the quite a lot of the "free" crowd seem to be whining scroungers, however I do agree with some of your suggestions... A monthly subscription fee is by far my favourite & what I thought "going premium" ( that term is soooo amusingly pretentious) was going to be, not this "candy crush stone buyer's habit forming addict maker" that is premium.
I believe you complained that they should do proper marketing & research of their target demographic... They have, the results are being used as we speak & I find it quite brilliant. You'll spend, run out, have that cliff itch & spend more, run out & repeat for as many premium novels are in your library.
We live in a time where forming habits is easy... You are being farmed.
Well done Q a round of applause, I think I'll use this as study.

That info is in the book of answers & was provided from the time Spirit Stones became a currency.

Only a flaw if you can't leave them alone & let them pile up
Shaff Of piracy
Daoist_Lightsouth i cringe at the word "literature"
LemonAid0708 which is not expensive for a hobby.
Do you like painting? you'll spend way more than that on paint.
You like gaming? A game easily costs 50$
You like sports? A fitness / tennis / whatever subscription > 36$
I like reading. I'm happy to spend 10$ / month on my hobby.
Ansh The point is in how much you pay.

BishopDearg Yeah they care more about profit than fidelity.
Candy Crush is a small game with big target.
But webnovels is a big platform with a small amount of fans.
They shouldn't follow the strategy of Candy Crush in that situation...
i only have 1 suggestion
invest spirit stone with novel you already know they will finish soon or are already completed
example the king of avatar or mmorpg legendary guardian
if you don't have any...well shit happans
Tugster how many accounts can you do like that
They don't give a shit about your post.You can find at least 15-20 post like this.but you can't find one answer from higher-up.They don't care about translation quality(a lot of translator uses MTL) or full of a filler chapter.there are idiots who buy their stone and that is enough for them.
BishopDearg no because if I pay and unlock a 100 chapters I dont have to wait a 100 days and can keep reading, but after those 100 chapters if I dont pay for the next ones I have to wait 100 days till I get the first free chapter so Im waitimg the hundred days anyway just a bit later and paid for nothing..
