    Someone translated my novel to Chinese and posted it on Qidian

    Or anything pro Hong-Kong independence.

    Has your story been copied to a Chinese site called Quiana?

    Yep chapters aren't locked unless the author contracts their work with webnovel. Reason fanfics aren't is because you can't contract a fanfic(I think fanfic of an already WN contracted story might be able to, but definitely not stuff where WN doesn't hold the rights)

    Their first born.

    Is this fanfic, inspired story, or something else?

    Well theres whether you are looking at it from a legal perspective or an audience perspective. Legally change names and backgrounds or they will consider it infringing. As for audience perception it gets more nebulous. It depends on whether the source is public domain or not, how much it has...

    Writing If it doesn't have perfect logic, there isn't even subpar reality.

    Does you MC want to purchase something like property or business in your story? Make sure you detail your MC filing all the right paperwork and walk us through them filing their taxes for that extra punch of realism. No shortcuts like them walking in and just buying stuff to get on with the story.

    6 Types of Narration - The strengths and limitations of each

    What about second person future tense though? "You will go to the grocery store to buy ingredients for dinner." Feels very intimidating...

    Illustrations in a novel - yay or nay?

    Generally I would say it's value added to the novel. However it is going to cost time(if the writer is also the one making the art) or money to get the art made which is usually the problem. Because the time could also be used to write more and most people here don't earn at all or enough to...

    You open up a Cultivation story, what do you expect?

    Most of the Xianxia/Wuxia/XuanHuan MCs are no better than the young masters they fight again the only difference being that they are the MC so we are supposed to be on their side and they have plot armour. Like usually they are just as arrogant, prideful, vindictive, lecherous etc.

    Why would you feel obligated to respond? You aren't even obligated to write.

    Facial hairs anyone?

    I took it as innuendo, but who knows.

    What did you learn today?

    Also why your AC/Fridge/Freezer work and use a compressor.

    Facial hairs anyone?

    I mean there is no contest. Without eyebrows people just look very strange. Next would be eyelashes. Only then are any of the others even a consideration. Only one I would easily choose to give up would be nasal hair. That is if we are just talking about the hair by the opening of the nostril...

    Annoying Tropes

    That wasn't the thing you questioned though. You questioned one kryptonian harming another when even a nuke can't hurt a kyptonian. You're completely right that for one kryptonion to hurt another it would require them to punch hard enough to output enough force to exceed the amount of power a...

    Annoying Tropes

    The one that gets me is the oppressed child in a noble family. I have no problem with the other family members oppressing them, however in royal and noble families there is no way servants that were considered barely above slaves would be allowed to denigrate someone with royal/noble blood. Like...

    Depending on what they meant I would be for anyone being able to comment on a review. That would be more useful than just the author being able to do so.

    If people can comment on reviews doesn't that potentially help readers too? I know on web novel if I check out a novel I check the controversial reviews and then also check the comments by other readers on those reviews to get what is in my opinion a much better idea about a particular novel...

    Someone translated my novel to Chinese and posted it on Qidian

    I would probably ask the author first. Then if they deny report it to the platform. Just be prepared that both might deny at which point unless you want to go legal, which for most web novel authors isn't viable, you're pretty much at the end of your rope. We aren't a multinational corporation...

    Eh I think it's just as likely to show how bad an author is. I've seen cases where an author gets super defensive in the comments and it doesn't help their case. I would take the option for people to comment on a review over the option to remove it. As for whether it can be abused, just about...
