“Enjoy myself”

Jeremy K.
3/8/18

There are many great and entertaining comics on the site. There are great variety in the genres and topics so there will be something for everyone. The people there (readers, writers and artists) are mostly friendly and the forum have some great tips and advises to help you improve your skills. I've a great time there, maybe because I'm using it as a free user and I do not pay for anything.

“A Joke”

Sally J.
10/15/17

Honestly, this website is a joke. The comics are good, but the people who run the website are awful. The "premium" stories they charge readers for are poorly written, cliche, and are written by writers from other sites like Wattpad. If you're going to charge for stories, make sure it's quality content, not the crap you pulled from another terrible writing site. Edit: As another reviewer pointed out, this website is worse than we thought. Not only do they charge for unedited, poorly written content, they also dont allow accurate reviews. If you write a negative review about their premium content, they threaten to remove you from the website. Removing negative reviews about a product they are selling violates the Consumer Review Fairness Act. For a writing website that charges readers for money, that's poor taste. Tapas management, take a page from Amazon and Goodreads because they know how a real review system works. If you sale a poor quality product, buyers have a right to say so.

Members who became supporters over a year ago added money to their Tapastic account to support their favorite comics. In 2015 Tapastic took away the support system while there were remaining cash in the accounts. At the threads below you'll see that they failed to give back cash on time to some supporters. Maybe some supporters already got their money back. They replace the supporting system made for all devices with something called tipping which can only be used for mobile so half of the members won't be able to use it.

Tip for consumers:
If you're going to use their tipping system, don't use more than 5$ at a time in case they decide to get rid of their new support system too.

Now there are a lot of comics that will be locked and you've to pay to read them which is pretty lame.

I prefers the older site more. But still, they have great collection of creative and nice comics and many nice artists too.
