    I was getting tired of having to read around the intrusive Welcome Gift, so I made a Greasemonkey script and thought I'd share it with others who don't want to deal with the pink box following you as you scroll.

    This Greasemonkey script is very simple, and removes the node for the link that wraps the Welcome Gift. If anyone wants to do more, feel free and I'll edit the code below.

    Code:
    // ==UserScript==
    // @name webnovel.com remove welcome gift
    // @description Removes the link node that holds the gift
    // @namespace   http://forum.novelupdates.com/
    // @version     1
    // @run-at      document-end
    // @grant       GM_xmlhttpRequest
    // @match       http://www.webnovel.com/book/*
    // @match       https://www.webnovel.com/book/*
    // ==/UserScript==
    
    document.getElementsByClassName('g_task_a')[0].remove()

    What welcome gift?
    Edit: Nope, Can’t find it with a new account either.
    Edit2: Probably because I already took the 100 Free stones.

    The insides of the welcome gift is a big fat bill. You not only used their site or app but even had the audacity to open the free welcome gift. Honestly however I dunno bout no stinking welcoming gift, then again don't visit qidan stuff anymore so your guess is as good as mine.:blobmelt:

    I don’t get it. What welcome gift? Is it the 100 SS you get when you activate a new account?

    It's small and only shows up on desktop. Is it really so annoying?

    Thanks, I use the dark mode and having a bright pink box on it was very distracting while reading.

    For those that don't know, it is a quest type system to earn spirit stones. (Add a book to your favourites, start a new novel, finish a novel etc. and you get set amount of stones for those actions).

    This is absolute bullshit, before when you opened up an account your were offered 100 spirit stones right away, now you must do their stupid task before getting your stones
