Dear Sir
I believe you know what it means to tell part of a story. Is it appropriate use the conversations without my consent? What I am going to tell below will show what kind of people research helpers are .
1. The two (15 pages) you mentioned are about the same thing : the introductory chapter . [b]This is my original order "
subject:
A Pragmatic Study to Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass
pages: 15
sources: 20
citation: MLA
level: PhD
instructions: The 15 pages are the introductory chapter.
What I received was "A Pragmatic Study of Walt Whitman's Spiritual Meditations in Leaves of Grass". And this is a very big difference. I told both Writer 1 (the writer and James about it > Here are some of the points I raised and needed explanation before proceeding to the next chapter. These are some of them:1. The title has been changed without consultation. Adding spiritual meditations will take the work to a different direction and other conclusions. Better not to do it.
2. There is nothing about pragmatics in the first chapter. Not a single book consulted is about pragmatics. The only references in the text about pragmatics (PP12, 13) are broad and old books that were authored in the seventies and eighties of the last century.
3. The study, as she said, was not born as you said (I Quote "Subjective opinion causes many artists to receive unfair or harsh judgment "P.5). There is a believe that pragmatics could helpful in clarifying things in the interpretation of Whitman. Various approaches have been used, political, social, religious, and sexual, among many, to interpret Whitman. It seems that the room is spacious enough for other interpretations. "You are using Pragmatics for this end. Focus on that "She said
4. Genre theory is something different. It is not very connected.
5. She repeated linguistic framework very often. Is the study about linguistics or pragmatics? The theoretical background lacks theory!"
6. Two only of the research questions are valid (1&4).
7. The terms defined in the chapter have nothing to do with the subject of the study. It seems that we need only pragmatic terms. It is not the scope of the study to deal with romanticism, allegory, symbolism, spiritual meditations
8. Limitations of the study are about what to include and what to exclude. Are we going to use all pragmatic theories or we are going to limit or confine ourselves to a number of them. For example we might say that we are using only speech acts theory .Or we are confining ourselves to 1855 edition of Leaves of Grass and so on.
9. Talking about quantitative and qualitative phases without saying what they are.
One mistake I did and I admit : I trust untrustable people. Immediately after receiving the chapter from Writer,even without carefully reading it, I transferred another $564 for the first part of CHAPTER TWO:LITERATURE REVIEW.
For revising CHAPTER ONE they asked for $218, and I refused to pay anything because it was not my mistake.It was theirs, or at least the writer's and they admitted it .In her revision of the topic she again wrote something irrelevant to my original topic. The title was the same as mine but the content was about "The full scope of the study will address the application of pragmatics to interpret the poetry of Whitman, with a strong focus on using the lyric form to highlight poetic devices and the lyric form of the language used and their semantic and semiotic effects." She did that despite the fact that I had sent her a list of books and I wanted her to do something similar.Again I refused the work because "I am sorry to say that Writer 1 is not a pragmatics-oriented writer .Please ask Writer 1 not to proceed with chapter two . If a writer well versed in pragmatics is not available , please cancel my order and send me my money. I really feel sorry for that because the revision I received is only very slightly different from the first one. Instead of genre theory , for example , I have now lyric form which is again taking the study off track. Writer 1 keeps talking about linguistic framework , without stating what does she mean by that. She talks about linguistic pragmatics as having another pragmatics. She now , in her research questions, added semiotics and semantics to the analysis without saying why .Look at her books-consulted list , there only a couple of important references in pragmatics. I think she is very well in Whitman but not in pragmatics," and James said in his JUNE 24 e-mail" see see exactly what you mean and I agree. I already suspected this a few days ago, but since she felt confident I had to give her the opportunity to do it again. I was impressed when I read the email you wrote to her. Even under the (frustrating) circumstances you responded to her with kindness.
Some customers are not so kind even when things are going well, and to be honest. I feel very, very good about setting you up with a free rewrite by a different writer.
I don't know how to say this clearly... today I have two complications, and in one of them the customer be being very unfair to the writer. In your situation we owe you an apology and a rewrite, and I will arrange that immediately.
If you have any other concern, let me know and I'll be available to respond quickly. There is nothing you need to do at this time, because I'm taking care of everything.
Thanks, sincerely, thank you for being kind to the writer even under these circumstances.
And in another e-mail ( same day ) he said " Yes, actually, the first comment Writer 1 made about this was: "I love Whitman, and this project is one I'll certainly enjoy." So, she was involved because of Walt Whitman, and maybe her linguistics knowledge made her feel that she was ready for a pragmatics paper.
So now we have "experimented" with getting a revision from her, and we see that it's best for you to work with a different writer. As with all things, people who do not understand a subject may not understand that they don't understand. : )
Within 12-24 hours I'll put you in contact with another writer and bring them up to speed about the events that have taken place. I'm making your email message visible to a few of them so they can see how compassionately (and patiently!) you responded to the situation.
You'll hear from me again soon, thanks, "
Anew writer was assigned to fix CHAPTER ONE. His name was Writer 2 and he was according to James "Hello, this is a confirmation for your new writer to be Writer 2, one of the people I admire most. (June 25) and Writer 2 wrote (June 25) " It is great to be working with you! Please be assured that I will do my utmost to ensure that you are pleased with the project. I have assisted
clients on well over 100 PhD dissertations. I hope that by sending you an
outline of any chapters prior to my working on them, the paper will better
meet your needs."
I was worried about time and did not want to repeat the previous experience, thus I wrote to Writer 2 on June (30)"
Dear Writer 2
I am sorry for being late. I have been very busy because of the Summer Semester and some family affairs. The Outline looks OK ,but I need you to open the chapter with a broad review of the studies that led to the appearance of paragmatics , then to enter into pragmatics. Execuse me what do you mean by Tautologies & Contradictions . Sorry for the question because I could not trace them in the references I have .I want you to conclude this part by talking about literary pragmatics. Please try to focus more on pragmatics and less on whitman because the study is not a literary approach , whitman is merely the background against which the pragmatic analysis develops . Please try to use reference after 2000, unless necessary , better to be after 2005-2010 . These are the conditions of the supervisor . I do recommend you go through :A pragmatic Approach to Pintersque Drama & Pragmatic approaches to Shakespeare's play , I think that we need somehow to follow them so that not to go off track, One more thing Please I want you to make a decision regarding which edition of Leaves of Grass we are going to cover by the study . In whitman's section consider how the poet looks at language and I think there are more than one book about this topic.
Please Writer 2 keep me informed. "
ONE IMPORTANT THING : I ALWAYS APPRECIATED AND THANKED MY WRITERS FOR THEIR HELP, NO MATTER WHETHER IT IS OK OR NOT AND I AM PAYING MONEY. EVEN NOW I APPRECIATE WHAT THEY DID.
I received the FIRST CHAPTER from Writer 2 on JUNE 6 ." We still owe you 15 pages. Would you like me to proceed with CHAPTER 2? I
can have this done by Friday, July 12. Just let me know.
Thanks,
Writer 2
Immediately I asked Writer 2 to stop.I wrote an e-mail on July 20 why I asked him to stop "
Dear Sirs,
One expert says that "doctoral students need to be told that most examiners start marking from the back of the script. Just as cooks are judged by their ingredients and implements, we judge doctoral students by the calibre of their sources. The moment examiners see incomplete references or find that key theorists in the topic are absent, they worry."
I myself followed this piece of advice. I discovered the following differences, and unfortunately they are many. (Please compare the list below to the one provided by Writer 2).
The list lacks the key theorist in both domains of the study: Pragmatics and Whitman. How can a person who does not know the leading experts in both fields develop the theoretical framework in the literature review chapter? Usually this chapter constitutes almost one third of the thesis and falls into more than 60 pages. A background section in chapter one aims to orient the readers and grasp their attention. It should short, outline the broad field of study and then lead into the focus of the research problem. Please read what Writer 2 has written and tell me:does it do any of these? I find the in-text citations very irrelevant and weird. For example, does the first line need citation? Every three or four lines you have a citation. Go to the chapter you will find this in almost every single page: a couple of lines followed by a reference, and the following sentence(s) are not quite linked.
The methodology section disappeared from the introduction, whereas the theoretical framework, which has nothing to do with the title of the section, is repeated in the operational definitions of terms. The introduction did not clearly state why we have chosen Leaves of Grass or what characterizes Whitman's poetry and makes it suitable for a pragmatic approach. The only references to Whitman and his Leaves of Grass came in page 4 ,which practically says nothing , and in page 10, which cited the same references used elsewhere. What's the connection between (Sbisa, 2011) and Leaves of Grass last edition? Can you tell me? Or (Aijmer, 2011) and Whitman's poetry? Is it a matter of putting a reference here and there? What about the trust I put in the writer? The objectives are repeated in the questions and the thesis structure disappeared.
Unfortunately, the chapter lacks the coherence necessary to make it convincing and forward-going.
I feel uncomfortable about the situation and would like to repeat the questions: do you have a writer capable of writing about pragmatics with a solid background about PhD thesis? Yes, I will carry on, and I assume he/she knows what to put in each section: what to write in the background, theoretical background , the objectives, methodology and so on. He is an expert and knows what relevant material to be put in each section. Otherwise I would like to apologize and request you to send me back my money. I really do not have time for another writer to try his luck with me.
Please do I a favor: would just focus on these questions? I am late because I do not have time for long e-mails. I work from 8 mornings to 10 evening to make a living. I apologize for not having time to read or write long e-mails.
Thank you for your time and attention
Mohammed

And I asked them to send me the page number of the reference used by the writer .They have not , simply because the writer just put any reference anywhere.
I requested a full refund for the part that has not been started by any of the two writer 1 and writer2. And I thought of giving 30% of the first $ 564 to be given to them because James suggested in his e-mail (Aug.5)" I'll say that I would request a 50% refund for the part of the work that has been completed and a 100% refund for the part that has not been completed. "
This is the whole story.
I have a second part for this story. Before concluding I wonder why James was insisting on me to call him
It is really unfortunate that a company like Research Helpers who describe themselves as big and experienced company tell lies for $ 800 only. To answer your lies (I feel sorry to use the word)
1. Your writers failed to stick to original plan of the thesis. The first took it the way she liked by first talking about meditations and genre analysis and then about lyric form and the second writer submitted a paper that missed many things , the simplest of all was lacking the ability to differentiate between an author and an editor of a book. (PLEASE SEE ABOVE mohd55 #6). Both writers failed in writing the same chapter i.e chapter one ( 15 pages).
2.I did not say I did not like THE WAY IT WAS DONE as you claimed. I SAID THAT BOTH WRITERS WROTE PAPERS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ORIGINAL TOPIC. They were very irrelevant to the topic and I can put the two papers .
3. A third writer was suggested , but I said PLEASE ASK HIM WHETHER HE WELL VERSED IN PRAGMATICS AND WHITMAN. Simply because I did not want to repeat the same experience.
4.First could you tell why people approach you as a company ? At least some of them do not have enough time to write. I am not different. Two you were the reason for me thinking to quit the program. You know why. I put my order in May and I was supposed to put two chapters by August. Your writers failed to submit something acceptable , not even the minimum or a skeleton of a chapter (ONLY ONE CHAPTER ). Since MAY and I have been fighting to get one chapter and eventually I ended up with nothing.
5. What service that have been rendered 100% ? Both failed to write 15 pages . I was hopeful that I was dealing with serious, honest and people of trust ,that's why I committed the mistake of sending money for the first part of chapter two before finishing chapter one. Have you written a word in chapter two?
6. I believe that a Company like Research Helper should not be trusted after what they have done with me and after twisting the truth.
PLEASE HELP ME TO EXPOSE THEM
THANK YOU
NEXT TIME I WILL PUT ALL CONVERSATION PLUS THE PAPERS SUBMITTED BY WRITERS just to see what kind of a company Research Helpers are.
