Webnovel.Forum

Iseeyou But I got some hope in me, cause if they won't do anything to correct it, I can't see why would they shoot thei own leg? I mean, who would use what they spent so much to create?

[My guess: a lot of plagiarized content exist inside this site, like, using fan-fics can be illegal, 'a-fine-line' you got to walk here, and it also must be free, plus, all the usage of pics without owning it ... Maybe this site got threats? From major-companies? Even countries? ... I dunno ... but such act must have a real threat over their head, even if they chose the wrong way to solve it ...]

Day one and there are already hundreds of people trying to get them to change it back, but we can only hope.

Here fanfiction author Fanfic ' Gantz: live or die ' to scribblehub https://www.scribblehub.com/series/560692/gantz-live-or-die/

I have the same problem, well, this afternoon I made a backup of my chapters and uploaded it to https://www.scribblehub.com/ , I did it to continue writing comfortably, I will publish there and when it is finally edited I will publish it in webnovel too (for now) so that my readers can move to another page and can read comfortably by browser as 99% of them do.

I'm willing to offer solutions (even if I don't know this site prob):

1. Threaten any fan-fic in here by 'approval-needed', or 'cancellation', to protect this site from copyright-acts
2. Create a definite guide-lines for writers about 'what shouldn't be written about'/ 'the limit of plagiarize'/ 'what is and what isn't protected under copyright laws'/ etc.
3. Separate between free+paid novels! Let the readers know that a writer they like created a 'paid novel', but as for the free-novels, leave this site as it is, don't change a thing, cause WE PUBLISHED IT HERE FOR FREE ANYWAY! (&You say you protect my work, but damn, I made it for free, are you really protecting me?)
4. Tell us, Mr.Webnovel, you problems, so we can be a part of the help and solution, and not another part of your problem!

sebas325 I get what you mean, but this site is so good, I like it so much, I really wish it will stay alive and well, to the point I didn't even go into other sites :'/

Never read/watched Gantz, but I'll try your novel V.

It's not that you are leaving webnovel forever, just see it as an extension, and create another channel to upload your content then just upload it back to webnovel and keep it... or other pages, it's the best. I found https://www.scribblehub.com/ easy to write, in my opinion you have to see the problems as an opportunity to improve yourself.

I've checked multiple times and it still completely possibl to edit chapters in the Inkstone page, what are you exactly talking about?

MyIncarnation Then you're not really a true writer, i enjoy writing without having to ask people to give me an opinion about them or send a dumb stone. Feels like you were just writing for attention? There are social media for that

Neigh0 chapters are published through the Inkstone page, nothig has happened to it, stop complaining about something that you dont even know about

PancakesWitch If he writes a Novel, so that other can read it, then why not? His Reason, as to why he writes a Novel, is for him to decide.

dont leave 1 rewiev stars on the app they delete them report them for hate and pput a capture fo some ultraracist chinese novel instead

Die_Jobb i was the same way till this update, now i started reading on scribble hub and theres tons of good books there lol

PancakesWitch I'll clarify my words through some examples:
I wanna add a comment/picture to the text, how do I do it now?
I wish to read the latest chapter, while writing the new one, can I have an easy-access to it?
I wanna read through all the chapters, to find some scene who happened in the past, how can I easily search for it?
(...I haft to reach inside a chapter to read users-comments, ffs, it's so obvious you ain't using Inkstone yourself, or you'll know how much problems and troubles it created... Inkstone can't exist properly without Webnovel on PC...)
...
I write the novel using this site, only backing-up the novel to my computer later, cause it is that good of a website, but now it change my whole writing-style ... & not for the better, as Webnovel-webpage was an amazing one, which I got so used to, I don't wish to change my way of writing (as I can also read what I wrote in the PC while writing+add pics)

PancakesWitch Are you for real? This is my first web-novel...
The best thing that this site gave me is learning about writing through the comments, which no 'real' author never had a chance in his life to have without the invention of such platforms = Read feedback!

Do you know how author work in 'real-life'? They give the publisher the book, who then pass it to certain readers, for comments, and then it come back with the sum of all reviews, some detailed, some general, and you sit down to edit your work... and all of that happen before publishing...

& Now, welcome to the internet, I can skip this whole ordeal by publishing my work here, and get comments, reviews, real-responses, and all of that without hearing from any publisher, freely, openly, plus get audience...

This site actually bypass the whole publishing world, letting the writers meet the readers 'face-to-face', with no publisher in the middle. Such is the internet world, it creates what never was possible before.

I feel the writing-world took a step back after this update :/

Die_Jobb And I didn't even getting into how publisher screen the readers they give your book to, which is just a headache, cause there's just too little of them, while here you have endless amounts of readers, no prejudice, just pure-read-loving-people, who give pure-heart-comments...

& Then, if you wish to go publish your book, go meet the publisher, face the screening process, still the same as always? (Even though you can see how publishers also love this site, as they can find the book has comments and reviews, even a certain success/identification of audience/genre, making it much better for them as well)

Die_Jobb For us authors, this does not affect us since everything is published/edited on the inkstone page, so I do not understand your complaint. However, the current problem does affect us as readers.

Die_Jobb it was my favorite due to the ease of finding fanfics compared to other sites
