DeJeL you see the thing is humans don't like waiting. If there's loopholes we will find and use them. Regardless of patience being a virtue. For premium novels I'd rather cheat than be patient for trash quality.

And IF and only IF I am to be patient. Many translator groups should get there shit together fast. Quantity does not win over quality. That's something webnovel doesn't seem to understand. I'm not taking shots here. Just stating what I see.

      I don't create multiple accounts so don't use it as a counter argument, if you don't like to do it and feel it's wrong just don't do it but nobody likes snitches

        Guest199 Me and some of my friends use the same IP do to residing on a public system, so just going based on IP does not always work.;,;. (Public system being like a school which allows you to access this site)

            Belbute You should tag the ones you are trying to reference when saying accusing types of statements,

            Belbute but nobody likes snitches

            that way those who you don't mean it for won't possibly take offense due to assuming it is them you are referencing.;,;.

                  DeJeL for some reason it bugged I had to write again and then the name for the reply wasn't there anymore

                      A better option could be to remove ss novels from library and read it from novelupdates.
                      You won't feel the pain when you don't know further chaps exist.
                      The only ss novels I read are Cultivation chat group(with main acc), and legend of futian(with alt, but i am planning to drop or wait till stockpile).

                        bachingchung that's not a good reason. You will always have a free source, whether it's legal or illegal. 50 shades of grey is also for free, posted on a fanfic site, but most ppl simply bought it via amazon etc, because they just didn't know or were too lazy to search. And if we look at this case again, why the heck should I pay for these unprofessional translations when I can get e reedited version on amazon?

                            Guest199 most providers change your IP regularly, so ban by IP is the most useless technique ever. Ban by MAC would be more effective, but you can even change the MAC manually, so still no solution.

                                Yakumo Belbute bachingchung Just tryna annoy you all with that lol ;9. Still, smurfetes are annoying, especially when they especially make dozens of accounts just to like their dog-shiz reviews.

                                        Yakumo What are you reading that's unprofessional? Not saying there isn't some shoddy work being done here and there, but it's not like everything here is mtl-quality.

                                            Ryiel I really don't mind hobby translators who ask for donations, but as soon as it's commercialized I expect the same quality like with every other novel, especially if these prices are even higher than professionally edited hardcover novels. From a professional translation, I expect hardly any mistakes. Yes there are some good translations out there, where I find maybe one tiny mistake in 5 chapters, but there are just as many bad translations with at least one mistake in each chapter and even some black sheep with unedited chapters. Some of those bad translations are even premium novels and demanding so much money for them is really ridiculous.
                                            The version of the novels which QI publishes on amazon are edited again after completion. Dunno whether they will replace the chapters here with the final version. I doubt it.

                                                Belbute yup, but novelupdates only show the latest unlocked chaps which are free. So, if you never know how many premiums are there, you will not feel the pain of missing out much. Schrodinger's cat theory in novel😂😂😂.

                                                    Yakumo I agree there should be some standard of quality, which there really isn't. Some of that blame should fall on the editor rather than the translator, though. I don't mind how QI functions, really, aside from the lack of a standard of quality. Would it be nice to read everything for free? Sure, of course. Do I expect to be able to? No, I'd be more surprised if I could.

                                                        Yakumo why are you complaining so much when your argument is there's always "free source"? And once again, those locked chapters are free to read for 2 weeks.

                                                            bachingchung Your argument for perma locked chapters was, that they wouldn't buy the amazon version, if the version here would be free, which is just wrong. It's just the same for my shades of grey example or movies. There are lots of pirated movies but ppl still buy them and visit cinemas. Or it's the same here... You could read all premium novels for free if you activate your brain, but ppl still buy SS
