Yo yo yo...
By webnovel I thought you were calling your novel as 'webnovel'.
I didn't think about actual WebNovel platform....

Amazing, every alternative channel has a different account name. Totally not suspicious.

Webnovel is the biggest scammer with their slave contracts though.

I would find it interesting to see how much money they make. By doing this because it has to be worth their time. I guess is like starting a cult.

how much money they make

Enough for it to be a viable method.
And as in the "AI era" the cost is basically zero...

Note to Self: Making Money on Sh.

I've read ALL your stories, especially the ones with the cats with the nunchucks.

Okay. Give me money.

Still waiting.

There wasn't any money.

Okay, maybe next time.

Most of them live in countries where $10/day is normal.

but you've practically gotta be living under a rock to not know about these scams. I've only been publishing online for 50 days or so, and it only took like 3 days to see those messages multiple times, and even if I hadn't seen it multiple times, it's just SO sus.

this. my first WN site ever (not here) I admit it, I was all excited like a kid on christmas eve, I reported back to my writing group, and... guy was like "oh, you mean you're all excited to see an art scammer, I bet."

and yeah, that made *way* more sense, lol.

Trying to dodge the 'AI'/'mindless comment' tag, huh? Thanks for sharing this.

Welp, just posted my first chapter on here and kinda sad to see that all the glowing feedback is from scammers. Ah, well. Glad I looked at the forums before replying, at least!

The "Hey, buddy" as a form of address was funny, at least. Half tempted to reply with "I'm not your buddy, pal."

Edit to add: Very glad this resource exists! I wasn't planning to respond to this message, but regardless, this is invaluable. You've helped at least one newbie out.

Just because why not.

Thanks for this reply.

I hope the naysayers of this thread will read this and bump their toes on a corner, like our everyday scammers. /s
