OKAY, WEBNOVEL!! I AM STUCK AT LEVEL 4 WITH 2,400 / 10,000 XP and no way to earn more faster!
The "old way" was to complete several daily quests (leave a review, post a comment, ect.) But then people flooded popular books with "filler reviews"... EVERY. DAY.
That was patched, but there are two problems now... the help section isn't up-to-date and there's no way to grind xp.
I have a solution. Simply, award 1 xp every time that person leaves a unique "like" on a chapter comment, review, ect. This would also boost user contribution and overall community engagement.
Currently, the only way to gain xp is by waiting for the random daily reward (5 xp) or by leaving a comment and getting 2 likes (awards 15 xp). However, I have NEVER received this (it's probably bugged). You see, there is a small issue with having awards be dependent on someone else's actions. It only works in high traffic environments.
