Flaffy Hey, Been busy lately.
So I don't know what happened there and I still don't completely understand the core of the issue even after reading most of the above comments.
I don't use discord or FB too much, so I am probably uninformed.
You and that group seem to have long lasting issues and the group is pretty aggressive. And they have the power to mute you when you want to be aggressive right? I have no issue with people cursing unless it goes out of hand. I am not sure about the root of the issue so no comments on that. The best option is to ignore the discord server completely, but that means you are punishing yourself. I understand the feeling of someone talking behind your back is bad. @Flaffy I don't know what I can do for this.

My take on the issue is,
The one controlling the chat server has to follow the rules and be impartial. Having a hypocritical admin makes it disheartening to even visit the server.

@Neverfire7 @Tugster @Miya @Supreme_Idler What is even going on there? Feed me some info plz. I don't want to dig through the long chat history.

Many things...

Welcome back! I’ve decided to keep only the Google Site, to allow for a cleaner, adfree appearance. I also made a forum in case you want to say something about the FAQ!

If you want to link people to my FAQ, you should link them directly to my website as I’ll be directly adding newer FAQs there every so often.

Google Site: https://sites.google.com/view/webnovel-faq

FAQ Forum: http://webnovelfaq.forumotion.com

Before I start, I’ll just link this page, in case you want it:

Tech Team

These are based off of my observations and shouldn’t be thought of as an official list. It should be mentioned that the Tech Team does have their own chat, so if they’re tagged to the wrong kind of post, they can tell their colleagues to fix it.

@Clarkie - Forum-related
@dapenggaofei - Front-end website related
@shllove - General
@zhouxiyuan - IOS related
@Zhangdroid - Android related
@ReachZhaiTW - Android related
@Joseph666 - General/ Spirit stones
@zhibonan888 - Spirit stones
@WNOfficial - Product Manager
@Sandra - Higher Boss

You should probably tag either dapenggaofei or shllove first as they’re the most active on the forum. They’ll usually pass a message onto their colleagues, if need be.

Tech Team, please let me know if I’ve missed any of you out. I won’t be able to edit this post, but I will be able to edit my website!

Spirit Stone related

What are Spirit Stones used for?

Spirit Stones are used to skip ads on adwalled chapters and are used to purchase chapters with premium walls.

===============================
How many types of Spirit Stones are there?

There are 3 types:

Spirit Stones. These are bought Spirit Stones that never expire. These are used after your 1st and 2nd type Spirit Stones have run out.
Bonus Spirit Stone (1st type). These types of Bonus Spirit Stones come along as a free gift whenever you purchase Spirit Stones. They have a 90 day expiry date. These are used before bought Spirit Stones but after your 2nd type Spirit Stones have run out.
Bonus Spirit Stones (2nd type). These types of Bonus Spirit Stones are given whenever you vote at https://www.webnovel.com/vote, spend power stones on a novel, or when you complete your daily check in. They have a 30 day expiry date. These Spirit Stones will be used first, before bought and 1st type Spirit Stones.

===============================
Why am I losing Spirit Stones?

Normal Spirit Stones that you obtain from daily check-ins expire in 1 month. If you’re an older user, you’ll probably see 2 rows of Spirit Stones expiring every day. This is because older Spirit Stones that used to have a 3-month-expiry date have changed to a 1-month-expiry date and so those Spirit Stones expire alongside Spirit Stones you gained a month ago.

===============================
How do I get more Spirit Stones?

Check in every day to earn Spirit Stones. You can vote at https://www.webnovel.com/vote to earn Spirit Stones, as well as spend power stones on a novel to also earn more For app users, tap explore and then tap the yellow lightning bolt icon to view this page. You can invite friends for Spirit Stones. The higher your level, when inviting your friend, the more Spirit Stones you’ll obtain. These will give you Bonus Spirit Stones that expire in 30 days. There’s also the option of buying Spirit Stones, which will give you non-expirable Spirit Stones.

App users can tap onto their profile, click ‘Get Free Spirit Stones’ and watch ads for Spirit Stones.

===============================
How do I invite a friend here?

When on the main website, if you hover over your profile picture in the top right of the screen, you should get the black drop-down menu where you can check in, go to settings etc as well as invite friends. Click on that button and it should take you to a page where it'll give you your 'special code'.
Share this with your friend and they'll be able to join. Keep in mind that friends can only join using a social account (Twitter, Google+, Facebook) not by using email.
A phone user can tap ‘Get Free Spirit Stones’ on their profile and then tap ‘Invite friend’. You can then follow the same instructions.

===============================
My country doesn’t let me pay using PayPal. How should I buy Spirit Stones?

Not to worry! If you have an Android or iOS device, you can install the ‘Webnovel’ app on your phone. You can add money to your Google Play account or Apple account and pay for Spirit Stones via Google Play or Apple’s in-app-purchases!

Premium related

Why can’t I watch an ad anymore? And why has the price increased from 4 Spirit Stones to X Spirit Stones?

There are three types of ‘barriers’ for novels:

Completely free. These novels have no form of barrier or walls, allowing anyone to read them.
Adwalled. Usually, the latest two chapters for these novels have an adwall. Anyone can view the ad to read the chapter (even if you’re not logged in, however, if you log in again, the system won’t realise that you’ve already seen the ad) or they can pay 4 Spirit Stones (you have to be logged in for this) to read the chapter.
Premium walled. Some novels may be premium walled which means that you won’t be able to watch an ad to read the chapter. Roughly, for premium chapters, one must pay a Spirit Stone for every 200 words. However, if a chapter is 1000 words, for example, you might not necessarily pay 5 Spirit Stones. There may be other factors influencing the Spirit Stone price.

===============================
What is Premium?

Some novels may have a Premium wall placed over it. This means that the novel will release a few regular chapters every week as well as even more ‘Premium’ chapters. These Premium chapters are like ad-walled chapters except you can’t watch ads to read them, you can only pay Spirit Stones. Read these links for more information:

https://forum.webnovel.com/d/2786-introducing-the-premium-program-beta-giving-you-advanced-chapters

https://forum.webnovel.com/d/3634-need-more-info-on-premium-program

https://forum.webnovel.com/d/2830-regarding-premium-what-it-means-for-readers

A lot of your questions should be buried in one these threads, mostly likely the middle thread.

===============================
How many Spirit Stones does each chapter cost, if it turns Premium?

Depending on the novel, the price varies, due to the number of words in it and other factors. Each normal, non-expirable Spirit Stone is worth USD 0.02.

===============================
What does Premium mean for a novel?

If a novel turns Premium, then they’ll release premium chapters every week, as well as at least one free chapter a day. If your novel turns Premium, you will still be able to read it for free. The following will happen, for example:

Week 1:
Free chapter released: 342,343,344,345,346,347,348
Premium chapter released: 349,350,351,352,353,354,355,356,357,358,359

Week 2:
Free chapter released: 349,350,351,352,353,354,355
Premium chapter released: 360,361,362,363,364,365,366,367,368,369,370

Week 3:
Free chapter released: 356,357,358,359,360,361,362
Premium chapter released: 371,372,373,374,375,376,377,378,379,380, 381

You'll still be able to read free chapters, it's just that they'll come in lesser numbers. You can either wait for the chapter to be unlocked, or unlock it yourself, however, it’s advisable that you carry on spending Spirit Stones as the number of chapters released is not dependant on what you’ve unlocked, rather, it will unlock at a regular, community pace. For example, if you, in Week 1, unlock chapter 359, your free chapters, by the end of Week 2, won’t end on chapter 365, it’ll end on chapter 355, like everyone else’s.

===============================
What is Premium For Free?

Simply put, it’s the mass unlock of Premium chapters for various novels.

Look at this for more information: https://acts.webnovel.com/2018/6094045/index.html

Account related

I used my social account to create my account. How do I use the email of my social account to log in to my account?

If you used your social account to create your account, you'll have to continue to log in through the use of that social account. If you used an email to create your account, you have to use your email and password to log in. You can’t log into the account created by your social account with your email and vice versa.

===============================
I changed my name on the main website but my name doesn’t change on the forums. Why?

You can change your website name as many times as you want, however, your forum name can only be set once, at the beginning. If you’re really desperate to have your forum name changed, you can always ping someone from the tech team.

===============================
Why can’t I edit my forum posts?

If someone has posted after your post, on the same thread, you will no long be able to delete or edit your post. This is probably to ensure that every conversation makes sense, instead of people editing their messages to make everyone else look strange. If you double post, then delete the second post, you will still not be able edit your post. The same applies with making a thread. If someone says something on it, even if it is later deleted, you will no longer be able to delete it or change the title.

===============================
How do I rate a novel translation?

You must be logged in for this. Right at the bottom of every chapter, before the next chapter, there should be five stars. Clicking the leftmost star means giving the translator 1 star. Clicking the rightmost star means giving the translator 5 stars. Once a star has been selected, you can’t change your choice.

===============================
my friend can’t see the email option when registering when I invite them. Why?

For now, invited friends can only use their social accounts (Google, Facebook ,Twitter) to sign up. Email cannot be used to sign up, when using a referral link.

===============================
What are Badges?

The Badges system act as a sort of achievements system. If you visit the following link and tap on each badge, you’ll be able to find out what you have to do to get the badge. For certain badges, there are levels: https://www.webnovel.com/badges

It should be noted that you cannot choose whatever badge you wish to display, for now.

===============================
How do I delete my account?

You can't delete your account. You'll need to seek out the help of a tech team member (look at the Tech Team section) who can be found on the forums. Simply create a thread, stating your desire to delete your account and why you want to delete it.

Qidian International currently only translates novels that have, originally, been published by Qidian, however, I believe the ability to pen your own novel may be in the works.

@zswaleh put together a website of all the cultivation rankings for most, if not all, the novels on Qidian International.

It can be found here: https://qidianwiki.wordpress.com/

===============================
What are Energy and Power Stones and how do I use them?

Energy and Power Stones are granted every day. The maximum number of Energy and Power Stones a person can have is dependant on their level. Learn more here: https://www.webnovel.com/privileges

Energy Stones can be used here: https://www.webnovel.com/vote
The novel with the highest number of Energy Stones at the end of the week will be released, allowing readers to enjoy a new novel.

Power Stones can be used on the webnovel’s novel page or at the end of a novel’s latest chapter. Voting with Power Stones can influence the novel’s position on the Power Rankings, which can be found here: https://www.webnovel.com/ranking/power
Phone users, when on a chapter for the novel they wish to vote for, can tap the middle of their screen. Two black boxes should appear from the top and bottom of the screen. Look at the top box. Readers can tap the leftmost icon on the right side of the box.

How do I make a Novel Pickup Request?

I made a thread and a few posts about this.

https://forum.webnovel.com/d/3912-novel-pickup-requests

https://forum.webnovel.com/d/3912-novel-pickup-requests/10

https://forum.webnovel.com/d/2127-howdo-you-make-requests-for-novels-do-it-can-be-put-on-the-what-s-next-list/2

The first link states some basic ‘rules’ as well as a template for a detailed Novel Pickup Request. The second link tells one how to find the raw link and status in COO for a novel. The last link will show you how to make a basic Novel Pickup Request, which I suspect most people will want. Take a look at the below flowchart, if you have doubts about whether your novel.

===============================
What is Thank God It’s Friday (TGIF)?

TGIF is an event that occurs every Friday (Thursday for Europe...). Its contents can range. Read the original thread for more information: https://forum.webnovel.com/d/3155-tgif-1

===============================
Why has XYZ translator stopped pushing out chapters?

Said translator may be very lazy. They could also be having IRL problems. Or, if their translators are really bad, they could be undergoing a Quality Assessment check. After this QA, the possibility of them being fired is high.

===============================
How should I report translation/grammar mistakes?

You can make a thread on the Webnovel Forums (scroll up, you should find a question related to making forum posts). Remember to add the tag ‘Report Translation Mistakes’.
You could also post the mistake on the chapter itself and hope that the editor or translator sees your comment.
You could also go to the #Suggestions_Bug_Feedback channel on the Qidian International Discord server (go to the World Portal section to get the link), post the mistake and chapter number and ping CKtalon.
You could also join the novel’s Discord server (go to the World Portal to find if your novel has a Discord server), find a channel for reporting translation/ grammar mistakes and post your mistake. If the translator is on Discord, you can directly message them with the mistake.

World Portal

I made a forum so you can make suggestions easier than on the Webnovel forums :)

Neverfire7 · Mar 5, 2018

Back again. I would've posted this on Saturday morning but I was waiting for an official list of the Tech Team here. I couldn't wait any longer... However, if I ever do get a list, I'll add them into my website... because I can't edit posts here... Thanks for reading!

Changes:

More questions… Obviously
I’ve created a website because I know a lot of people dislike reading through long posts
EDIT: I’m the process of creating yet another website…
I added pictures
Changed ‘Version’ to ‘Edition’
New categories ‘Premium’ and ‘Account’ added
A section dedicated to the tech team was added
A World Portal for all Discord servers and Facebook groups was added
A list of major contributors added
I read the formatting guide properly (it can be found here:https://acts.webnovel.com/2017/5949089/index.html)

I added a section for the Tech Team on the websites, but they’re empty. If I ever get an official list, I’ll fill up that section, but for now, it’s empty.

Here’s the first, finished website: https://sites.google.com/view/webnovel-faq/

Here’s the second website, but it’s unfinished: https://neverfire7.wixsite.com/webnovelfaq/

Before I start, I’ll just link this page, in case you want it:

What are Spirit Stones used for?

There are 3 types:

Spirit Stones. These are bought Spirit Stones that never expire.
Bonus Spirit Stone (1st type). These types of Bonus Spirit Stones come along as a free gift whenever you purchase Spirit Stones. They have a 90 day expiry date.

Normal Spirit Stones that you obtain from daily check-ins expire in 1 month.

Why can’t I watch an ad anymore? And why has the price increased from 4 Spirit Stones to X Spirit Stones?

There are three types of ‘barriers’ for novels:

Completely free. These novels have no form of barrier or walls, allowing anyone to read them.
Adwalled. Usually, the latest two chapters for these novels have an adwall. Anyone can view the ad to read the chapter (even if you’re not logged in, however, if you log in again, the system won’t realise that you’ve already seen the ad) or they can pay 4 Spirit Stones (you have to be logged in for this) to read the chapter.
Premium walled. Some novels may be premium walled which means that you won’t be able to watch an ad to read the chapter. Roughly, for premium chapters, one must pay a Spirit Stone for every 200 words. However, if a chapter is 1000 words, for example, you might not necessarily pay 5 Spirit Stones. There may be other factors influencing the Spirit Stone price.
