    For the others that still think Qidan is a "GOOD TRANSLATION HUB".

    Why can't we blame them for translating more than a hundred new novels with stable releases and a mobile reading app which no other true translation site has? Even if it hosts a bigger royalroadl inside THEIR APP IS FULL OF MALICIOUS ADS (probably rights because its QI !) and they even MADE A GODDAMN PAYWALL ,so if we want to enjoy the hard work of those translators we have to pay !

    How dare they !
    I will go to those real piracy sites and support their sites with their ads !

    HOW CAN QIDAN NOT UNDERSTAND THAT ,WE (THE READERS) ARE ENTITLED FOR FREE STUFF!!!
    I mean yes,there is a way to read free novels ,it's not like they limit account creation ,it's not like they have this thing called earning free spirit stones ,BUT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BOTHER YOURSELF AND WANT TO READ ONLY WHY PAY THEM WHEN YOU CAN PIRATE?!?!?

    Fuck translators and publishers ,their work is shit ,only by getting free stuff can we validate ourselves in this higher-level existence forum !
    Making paywalls to profit off their hard work ,damn bastards!

    ...

    After all is said and done it's all "feel good" threads about trying to say piracy is okay if it's qidan. Is piracy okay if it's printed book like Branden Sanderson and so on? How can we pay a 20-50$ for a new book when we can easily read it from the internet ?!
    Example - why pay on WW for Coiling Dragon book when you can read it entirely for free on Webnovel
    It's okay to pirate ,why should we pay this damn greedy translator?!?

    Every time I visit this forum and see this entitled mentality it makes me remember when I was a kid and didn't work so I pirated games to play.
    As that chick author said " I can understand if you don't want to pay" which for some reason made people think of blizzard saying don't you have phones. These things are totally different and the intent is also different.
    I know people don't want to pay when you can for example read free here and there. But living with this feel-good piracy mentality won't lead you to more socially - healthy lifestyle. That's what I believe anyway.

    Please see for yourself how shitty is to boast that pirating is "okay".

    Let's see how many people only read the early part of OP's post and think this is a rant aimed at Qidian

    EDIT: SEE!! The one above me just boast about being pirate

    So whats new? There even a pirate site of qidian just read there. Qidian makes buseness out of translations.
    Edit: after reading the entire thing. So? Yeah sure pirating is bad thats normal.
    But if you have a free version then people will choose that instead of paying for something that could be read somewhere thats free.

    What's wrong about your post is the word ENTITLED. No one is ENTITLED to free stuff!!! It's either the author's or translators or publisher's prerogative.

    Also, if you have patience, you can read as much as you want. In fact, I have 10 qidian accounts for this sake alone hehehe. One of them has over 700 star stones already!

    Piracy is bad, yes, but Qidian is worse so
    Bad > Worse. I'm merely choosing the lesser evil as you don't have a choice.

    umm.. no. the original content isn't free, so we aren't exactly entitled to get it for free.

    but you're right that their pricing is ridiculous.

    EDIT: forget it, sorry I didn't read it until the end.
