Well.. i guess we are 1 step closer to 100% pay to read..

I read some novels that are premium, but I have always read the free chapters..it's been always a week and still no free chapter for these novels..is this a thing now?

CKtalon even if we got it for free back then, why is it locked right now?

I never bought any chapter, but still..the chapter is unlocked now and i need to wait for months if i want to continue read the novel for free.

I'm not asking for qidian to unlock it for free, but at least tell me what's going on. This is super annoying.

I think the way to go is to have different free chapter release per account. Correct me if I am wrong, but i think the current scheme is really hard on the occasional spender.

E.g. if i like a novel and it currently has 100 locked chapters then I proceed to unlock them all, the free 1 chapter/week will only caught up with me after 100 weeks.

Not only that means that the app becomes (pseodo) full pay to read app, it discourage me from ever buying any stones.

It would be great if I still got new chapter per week AFTER I do the purchase. This scheme will also help Qidian to hoard more $ as occasional spender will be more likely to purchase stones.

*but then again, I'm not quite sure if the free chapter release really works the way I thought. Can anyone confirm?

Let's say a certain webnovel has 100 locked chapters and has 1 free chapter release per week (readable without stones).

If I am to unlock all 100 chapters, do I need to wait for 100 weeks before I get my free chapter? Because I can handle occassional stone purchase, but if by doing so I need to wait longer for my free chapter, I'm not doing it.

Thx in advance !
