    Actually I make a decision to make this thread after 4 or 5 novel which I read from the start until 1/3 of the story (CN Novel), then I choose to search for spoiler mainly in the potential love interest and their romance and eventually stop to read the novel once and for all.

    Maybe some will say "Stop reading the spoiler damnit !", but you know that Curiosity kill the cat. Actually I'm searching for spoiler after the novel get to repetitive and the plot is not moving forward. Or that mostly chinese novel have quality downgraded after 1/3 of the story progression?

    Anyone with the same problem with me? :blobcry:

    NTR, Main charactar forgiving someone painted as evil. Someone painted as evil not recieving just punishment. Main charactar not being epic in the end. Main charactar pining after a women or the novel being about women. <= This is the #1 reason for me to drop novels.,

    The story makes no sense, contradictory or weak story telling.

    Stop reading the spoiler damnit!

    I read spoilers. There are some questions that I have and a spoiler is the only solution. I’ve never had regrets after reading them~

      No drop but I'll send that novel at the bottom of my list.
    2. Unnecesary filler and plot
      Realms in the Firmament and Otherworldly Evil Monarch (Fengling Tianxia's novels, I was in love with those novels due to many recommendations but the fillers...my god.....why?.............rip) "Oh! another novel of my favorite author Fengling Tianxia" "The best author is Fengling Tianxia" GOD WHY, I WILL NEVER LISTEN TO YOU GUYS ANYMORE!, THAT WAS ALL FAKE!

    It is a bit late to stop reading a book because of an unsatisfactory ending as you should have already finished the book :rolleyes:

    Sometimes I stack chapters up for any novel and then a few months later I lose motivation for reading this fat wad of chapters.

    In your situation I tend to read ahead with MTL and am usually more then happy to continue the story when TL chapters have stacked up.

    This !
    Sometimes you want to stack up the novel to get the tension but suddenly you got busy IRL or other novel caught your interest so you forget the stacked up chapter

    I don't mind spoilers, unless it's a detective story, it increases my interest in the novel, to me what's most important is the journey up to the events not the events themselves. Also, a single sentence can't possibly compare to seeing the whole story during and leading up to these events and all the tension and action taking place before them.

    I believe it is meant as you read a spoiler describing an unsatisfactory ending. At least, I undestood it as such.

    This is why spoilers are count as "risks" and people Hide "spoilers".

    I have lost interest in a few stories after reading the spoilers; Chaotic Lightning Cultivation, Dragon Marked Emperor, Slaughter God. The reason was because I found out the entire story was just going to be a monotonous continuation of the status quo. Just a tirade of endless amounts of bullshit and plot less drama.

    In the end though I think losing interest in a story because of a spoiler is a hundred times better than losing interest after wasting months of your life following it. Seriously some of these stories have thousands of chapters and take years to fully translate, could you imagine being invested in a story for that long only for to flat on its face on the last rung of the race? Motherfucking quincy bitch.

    Just avoid spoilers if you're going to be like that. It might not be as bad as you think.
