    Release that witch is crap translation compared to before. You seem to think quantity is better than quality. The other novels i listed are crap translations that is akin to MTL yet you seem to argue about it not being translated before. Sorry but if you are going to ignore the other arguments about QI and focus on quality(which is objectively good in your eyes no matter what) then I'm going to stop arguing to a brick wall. Continue to pander to QI though and ignore the monopoly and the dangers it represents since they don't care about the community. Bye :p

    I will not say the translator that unstable, goes mia for month, and run with 10+ donation queue is good tho. Grammar and flow is not different that much

    Why i argue like that? That is because you provide sample for great translation become crap. Meanwhile, there is no translation before qi take that project. How is that relevant?

    Your point about danger literaly posted in my previous post
    The price is too expensive? Don't buy it. As simple as that.
    Doesn't care about quality? I already make a post about that and you don't even read

    Actually QI can't take translations unless they pay for them. I don't think they actually take translation without paying from them aside from the ones from WW where they "claim" to have the rights to take it. But I don't think there been a case outside that where they took translation without paying author for it? Someone can correct me if I'm wrong here.

    Wait, doesn’t munpia contract are different with Qidian contract? Qidian own the work that why they can force other TL to take down their translation, but Munpia doesn’t. Right?

    Beside that, assuming munpia own the full right like QI, what are the deal between QI and Munpia? Do munpia transfer those right to QI?

    Dumb, paying to a crook when you can get it free with a little search. Normally support translation sites but not crooks!

    Care? Whenever I see that word. I laugh my ass off haha.
    It is just used by elitists to feel entitled.
    I care so much that I translate a novel to perfect quality one chapter per month VS the money grubber who is doing daily releases.
    Hahaha. I wonder whom these readers who want care will support :cookie::cookie:
    It is a size issue, the bigger the website the more likely you will see trash since you have so many translators
    Given that the Korean novels are not stolen from translators since Gravity Tales is owned by QI and the novels just switched websites
    I have no idea what you guys are raising pitch forks for

    Hahaha I wonder lol.
    It is quite funny.There is a Google document that ranks Munpia novels via money spent on it
    That is what was used to pick novels.
    It is pretty ironic that the same leechers want the best selling novels translated but are shocked when best selling novels are being sold

    Will refer to this post again when QI takes a KR novel from another TL group already translating it. Because they have done it in the past with CN novel then they will do it again with their Munpia KR partnership. I don't know what are you arguing to be honest? People to start paying for premium chapters? Because all I hear is you pointing out the obvious as if it needs to be said already. Please contribute instead of "Most readers pay for quantity not quality" which en-capsizes your entire post.

    Hahaha, contrary to what many like you in this community think. I look forward to QI poaching Korean novels.. It is a good thing for the community as a whole.
    We don't need more hobbyists
    When they hopefully succeed, we will get English Zongheng , 17k and even English version of munpia.com thereafter.
    You guys are too blind by your entitlement that you cannot see Mt Tai.
    Over and out .
    Pointless thread is pointless.

    QI shilling intensifies
    Nice to see how much you care for the TL community. All the TL groups should bow to your unparalleled intellect. Reading a fan TL without paying means you are acting entitled(Better stop reading anything not on QI then since you love QI so much). Indeed.
    Edit: Better yet why aren't you translating on QI yet??

    Haha. Anyone who disagrees with me is a shill.
    You guys need a better comeback.
    Pathetic!

    I rather go do something productive instead of jump on a bandwagon.

    Yup go play along with the children dear, the adults are talking.
    Seriously you speak like a mob character who dies in the first arc or a child pretending to be one.

    Onto the point of the thread, I wonder what's QI next moneymaking move.

    Munpia is mostly a hosting website. Most of their good novels are owned by the author. Novels actually published by Munpia are few and pretty bad, so don't worry too much

    Won’t happen. At least not in the near future. How many funds have Qidian burn for QI? Paying the TL and editor, development cost, operational cost, legal cost, etc?

    How many profit do they earn until now? Ads got blocked, chapter is pirated, people create multi account to abuse SS, low loyalty from user to QI, their business model is not working on global level.

    Do you think other players have money to burn for something that may not work?

    It's already happening. Zongheng is already preparing to launch their English site. They're aiming to get it up next month.

    There's a clear demand for these things, which means that they can be monetised.

    Complimentary sessions, free samples... If you get it, you get it. No point arguing in here.
