I know that there’s been a lot of new writers joining our Webnovel community lately, but the flood of SHAMEFUL self-promoting is unbearable lately. The moderators have better things to do with their time than tell people to read the rules. Why would you NOT as soon as you join something new? It’s idiotic to me, but apparently this needed to be said.

READ THE RULES! It’s common sense, and if you ignore them, or play stupid(seen others get chewed out, but still SHAMEFULLY post): you will get chewed out by the veteran authors, then blocked by moderators. Continued abuse will bring you negative reviews by the fore-mentioned vets.

The difference between SHAMELESS and SHAMEFUL promoting(as I was told), is:

Shameless is Offering your works to those ASKING. Your works need to fit the criteria of the reader’s request, or Keep It in the MONTHLY promotion and swap threads.

SHAMEFUL(as in you Should be filled with shame), is creating threads for individual review swaps, posting in thread requests that have Nothing to do with your work(s), and requesting editors/proofreaders with your link attached.

If you are looking for editors/proofreaders, then you should post your discord and/or email to discuss it privately. I have literally seen one author do it the correct way. If you are looking for FREE proofreaders, good luck with that. You’d have better luck requesting your friends and/or family members to help you(or readers). If you don’t have any readers yet, then I suggest the pilot reads programs that Webnovel does. This will give you a feel for the marketability of your novel as well.

DON’T BE AN ASSHAT! READ THE RULES!

Edit: It has also occurred to me that some might not know where the full set of rules are. Those three little lines in the top corner? CLICK IT.

    Natsuro As of right now, all works are categorized as either female or male leading. I also like both, so what I do is search by genre tags. Another good thing to do is to hit up the self-promo thread, and thumb through the synopses there. Most writers promote their works there, so you’ll find all types of leads. I hope this helped☮️❤️😁

    MichaelParkes Okay after reading Ms. Redhead's ranting(?)/frustrated ranting(?), let me guess in which category your request will come... Shameful or Shameless?
    Aish... tough question...
    Oh, I think I got it...
    "drum rolls" ...

    SHAMEFUL

    Btw who are those big tech companies who hired you to promote them? Are you sure they are big... I mean big as in company... not you know the thing you suck.

    (I'm not gonna be banned for using foul language right?)

    (Alert: Corruption. This novel is corrupted. Author is a con man, further below, mainly Mutagen novel author others suspected as well):

    Holy Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😲😲😳😲😳😲😳😲😳😲😳😲😳😲😲😳😲😲😳😨😨😨

    I can't believe this mother ducking atrocity. It's so disgusting. Everyone BOYCOTTTTTTTT THIS NOVEL. DROP IT. DROP IT RIGHT NOW! As for why, ahem.

    Michael_Garcia_7550 : yes you suspected author duplicate account. Had no less than 150 YES you saw and heard right 150+, 150+ due note the plus I didn't count all of them only some of the review pages i was too disgusted to continue counting, go look for yourselves. DUCKING 5 STAR spam reviews. IT'S DEFINITELY MORE THAN 150. POssibly half the reviews of the novel are made by this account. Suspected shameless author allegedly inflating his novel star rating.

    I am so utterly disgusted that I will be posting this as many places in this novel and others to uncover this shamelessness. My God man! Over 150 possibly 300 reviews out of about 900! Are spam take reviews by the same person with slightly different content each time!??!!!!!😷 it makes me sick. I bet other novels do it to but fellow daoists it's your job to uncover this ugly face behind their masks.

    Seriously though i still can't believe it over 150+ possibly 300+ review are spam 5 star by the alleged author.

    (Getting lazy so I can't post it everywhere for This to get noticed and for corruption to purged so I pass the baton on! Don't wait until it reaches your doorstep before you do something about it. So please share and spread the word.)
