(kind reminder for potential customers) Never ask anyone to write your essay !!!

theguardian

This is the link from the Guardian, which explains why you should write your essay by yourself.

For those potential customers who may be hesitant about whether to place an order with essay-writing companies or any individual writers, please think carefully before making any decisions. (Of course, if you'd like to take the risk, it's totally up to you).

This link is absolutely reliable. This is meant to protect potential customers. Of course, I do think there's a slim chance of getting decent writers. If you do find one, please buy Lotto! You're incredibly lucky !

There's a thread about law teacher written by me. Please read it as soon as possible before it's removed. That thread has been closed.

This site is very likely to be crooked. If they had done nothing wrong, who are they so scared of being discussed? After all, I'm not slandering them. I've provided reliable sources to support my idea. For those people who try to argue that the passage by the Guardian is unreliable , they are very likely to be writers who are fraudsters !

It's simple logic. Whose opinion do you tend to trust? The Guardian's or the opinion from someone whom you don't know in the forum?

Of course, I do not agree to the idea of submitting the work without any amendment. You won't learn anything. However, I'm shocked at the quality of essay in which lawteacher or perhaps other companies provide. For example, in order to help you write a 2.1 essay, a decent reference guide should at least consist of

1. cases correctly used
2. all the necessary cases required for essay used
3. all the necessary legislation used
4. include relevant journal articles as opposed to giving you some references which are irrelevant to the sentence being quoted
5. give suggestions as to how to critically analyse the issue (which is the key to a 2.1)

As the essay they provide does not even qualify to be a normal reference guide, their way of doing business is so nasty.
You can have done it yourself.

Even though I know it's old-fashioned to talk about conscience nowadays, I didn't expect the quality is so crappy. It's even worse than the Q&A reference guide from the bookstore. At least correct cases have been used in those Q&A reference books. However, I don't recommend those Q &A books cos they're too descriptive, which makes me place an order with essay-writing company and pay for a FXXking expensive lesson.

Actually, it is not difficult to understand the situation. If writers provide a genuine 2.1 or even a first-class essay, they need to spend so much time on research and amending the draft for a number of times before giving the paper to customers. This can imply they cannot take up multiple jobs at the same time. If they want to make more money, they will focus on the quantity instead of quality. After all, what the market aims at is first-time customers. This kind of strategy fits perfectly for essay-writing companies and writers.

I sympathize with your disappointment over your experience with the company you used, and I know nothing about them whatsoever. But your subsequent campaign against the whole industry is a little silly, because, among other things, you're generalizing very broadly based on an isolated experience with one writer at one company and on the way that one company handled your complaint. Frankly, you really don't know what you're talking about.

Certainly, there are many large essay companies whose entire business model is based on a steady stream of first-time/last-time customers and they operate the way you describe, mainly cobbling together any combination of words to constitute an "essay" that is useless to their customers. There may also be freelancers who try to do this as a side job or as an attempt to make a living that way. But it would be impossible to do make a living steadily and successfully, especially over many years under the same online user ID and email address that way. The few other good writers I know and I depend on repeat business from happy customers to earn a living and the quality of the work we do really has nothing to do with how many project we have pending at a particular time.

We have our range of topic areas that we can handle competently and within that range, there are some that are easier for us than others. The specific details of each project is the principal variable that determines whether the product we provide is the equivalent of a "B-" or an "A+" in terms of quality. As is the case with even very good students, we may also occasionally write a "C" paper, too; but not too often or we wouldn't be able to keep customers' business for dozens (and dozens) of consecutive projects, often over several years per customer. Whatever the quality of one of my papers, it's almost exclusively a function of the topic and requirements of that particular paper and never a function of whether it's the only project I write that day or the fourth project I write that day. Just looking at one computer, I have 100+ folders for individual clients for 2013 and my other computers have folders for more 2013 clients that aren't on this one; and out of 100 folders, there might be 10 that have only one project rather than 5 or 10 or more for each person.

Nobody's going to argue with you that there aren't many shady companies (and individuals) in this business. It's also difficult to find a talented and honest mechanic or repair shop for your car, because that industry is notorious for ripping off customers left and right, too. But if you do your research and/or go by reliable referrals, it's definitely possible to find a great car mechanic who does good work and doesn't rip anybody off, and who routinely fixes several cars equally well in a single day. It's basically the exact same situation with this industry; and your diatribes are roughly the equivalent of someone who got ripped off by one lousy mechanic posting over and over that nobody should ever trust any mechanic with any car repairs.

I agree.

Clever customers will be able to distinguish whose opinion is more reliable. Since you're a writer, of course you need to defend yourself.

I don't expect what I say can have a significant impact to the whole industry. I just want to remind and warn people who can see this post to keep away from those fraudsters by using relatively reliable sources instead of sheer slander. No matter how small the impact is, it is better than nothing.

If I were a bit unscrupulous, I wouldn't say anything about my experience on this forum. I would just let other customers suffer. After all, whether other people will suffer is none of my business. However, I'm just so furious about their nasty way of doing business.

They are like 'murderers'. Although they won't kill you, you'll ruin your future, which is no different from killing you.

I guess it is very likely that no matter how much you pay, say if you pay 2000 pounds for a 2.1 3000-word essay, you will still get the same crap. It's not because the amount you pay is not enough to find competent writers. It's because their way of doing business is terribly intolerable.

If you can genuinely provide a decent reference guide, I will pay double or even triple the price.

Actually, since your experience was with an essay company and not with a freelance writer, your comments are probably much more helpful to me than harmful, and I don't need to defend anybody.


Luckily, that's probably very true.

let us see how good you can be by posting some of your papers.

I can only say : placing an order from anyone after thorough consideration and at your own risk.

I hope I have made myself clear of what you should do.

Since the admin keeps on removing my post, I'm disappointed about the whole essay-writing industry.

But for the "marker" from the marking service gives me a 3rd, I would not have noticed there are a lot of errors in my essay delivered from the companies and rewrite the essay thoroughly.

Thank you, marker. You really save my life.

Good luck with your coursework. Sigh. Law is not an easy subject at all ! Support you.

Thank you for your post. I would place an order if I didn't see your post.

It's right that we should write our own essay. This is the only way to learn.

Lawyers are professionals. Even if you get a high mark by asking someone to write for you, you're likely to be fired very soon when working in a law firm.

You need to be competitive enough to stay in the law firms. Buying a degree is not a way to earn you a place in the law firms.

Law is a super tough subject. It's not easy to understand the concept easily. I understand your situation.

Thank you for your post anyway. This saves me hundreds of pounds. I should buy you a decent dinner. :)

Yeah, whatever I find it odd that university's can charge so much for tuition and all of that crap yet say it's wrong to hire someone to write an essay for them.

I could care less; what is the saying money talks and everything walks.

Well, of course students should papers themselves. If you hire someone to write a paper and turn it in as your own then you're committing academic fraud.

So then let's close down all of these essay writing websites while we're at it. People are making money off someone else's laziness. that above is such crap if you ask me. This is why you should write your own damn paper; you should also clean your own house or watch your own children to. Nevermind

Though you tried to sound really philosophical, you missed being so by a millimeter.

Students will not stop hiring others to write model essays for them; nor will they ever think it right that they must write their own papers.

Why?

Instead of preaching in vain, you should question the flawed education model of today's institutions that ask everyone to WRITE. What the heck? Whether it's an engineering student, a fine arts major, or even someone pursuing a degree in dancing - ALL OF THEM HAVE TO WRITE term papers, essays, etc.

If writing is so crazily imposed on every single person on earth, it would certainly give birth to professional help that we so proudly provide to a number of students whose talent lies in some other area but writing.

@Meokhan

I really don't think I fault the students or the education system. I feel it's like this. If you need money and if you're good at something; then you make money at what you're going at it. so you can write an essay for someone who'd rather pay someone else to do it than I for one would rather be that writer that the student hires to write my essay for me. I need the money; yet i may write my own essay this time. custompapers is going to charge me $729 to write an essay for them. That is a lot of money in my opinion. i may have to buckle down and write it myself. that's my rent money.

Geez . . . .

You're not qualified to judge the "quality" of writing in the English language. Plus, your argument is asinine.

@Mcafee66
I am very sorry to say but my ESL proficiency has failed me. I do not understand what you're really trying to say.


If you do not consider the system at fault, it doesn't really mean it is not faulty. If I consider Obama ineligible for US presidency, it doesn't disqualify him from holding office.

I've already given a very objective reason for this argument. Another proof is the steadily thriving essay writing industry that can situate writers like me.

Whoever devised or proposed this magnanimously flawed notion that 'every student, regardless of their areas of interest and talent, must write, in one way or another' was not a rational mind. The follower of this paradigm, the global education system as a whole, is also irrational in this regard.

Let me tell you one thing very clearly. Sooner or later this paradigm will change. If it doesn't, it's doomed to fail miserably.

I never ask people to write essays for me. I would rather have them do other things for me (or to me).

Sent from my i-phone, mutha fkaaaa!

I don't agree with asking anyone to write your essays all the time. But in my case, I'm a part time model and I just don't have time to finish my assignments on time. that's why I have to rely on the services of this company. So far so good. My experience with them is amazing. Prices are really affordable and they don't plagiarize. Believe me. I've been using them for over a year now.

Littlemisssurfer is a dirty, lying, dishonest agent of smart-writer.com.

All of the academic writing companies, and even the individual writers, inform the students that these papers that are written for them are not to be submitted for a grade. Sure it is formatted in a submittable format, there is a reason for that. The student is supposed to paraphrase the paper given to them prior to submission. They must change everything about the paper except the quotes and paraphrased citations. That is because the model paper is meant to make their research and writing work easier. The essay was written for them, but the students know, as it is always clearly stated in the service agreements, that the model papers are not to reach their professors / teacher's hands. They must change the paper enough to create their own voice. Display their own writing style, as known to the educator, so that the fact that the student had someone else write the paper for him will be covered up. Any student that does not do that is really asking for trouble in terms of being caught with an outsourced paper for his class.

I have experiences wherein the student approaches me for coaching in terms of how to best write their essay or research paper. These are the students who are diligent enough to make the time to actually do the research themselves, relegating me to the position of adviser instead. Basically, what I do for these students is I guide them in the rough draft development of their paper. Once they have complete the rough draft, I take over and polish their work through my editing services. This way, the student does the work on his own and learns how to develop his own writing style based upon my guidance. Now, in instances when they feel like the paper could be improved further or needs improvement, they ask me to take over. I only do so when asked and after the rough draft has been completed.

So basically, I wrote the essay for the student by guiding the student in the development of the paper, then I polished it for them before it was submitted. This is an indirect way of asking a professional writer to "write the paper for me" while going around the academic honor code of the university. No rules were broken since the student did write the paper himself, I just edited and polished the content, without actually changing anything that he wrote. It's a loophole that my clients have effectively used over the years.

And who went to whom to engage in the use of academic services? Did the company track you down? I don't think so. ;)

Be more careful selecting a writing service and you'll be less like to get "murdered."

I would never advise a student to never ask anyone to write the essays for him. I mean, what if the student is actually helpless when it comes to writing? What if the ESL student has such a bad command of the English language that he just, by some miracle, passed his English language test by a hair? There is no way such a student would be able to compete in the English academic world. He will need all the help he can get. He should definitely ask someone to write his paper for him. From there, he can train himself to write his own paper. That way he will never be reliant on an academic writer. Of course, he will have to make sure that he doesn't hire a scam writer or writing company first. Now that, is another story.

This smacks of what psychologists call "projection," which, no doubt, becomes 100% more likely IN AN EMPTY ROOM.

We can try to convince the students today that they should write the essays themselves, or that they should hire a human writer to help them out until we are blue in the face. The truth is, technology has made it way too easy for students to not even care about writing their own essays anymore. Just punch in some keywords into an AI and it will spit out an essay for the student. The problem is that the student is not even going to check the AI essay for accuracy, validity, and proper content. They will simply pass the paper to their teacher and then complain about their grade.

Ironically, all of the specific failures detailed here by the OP in connection with unqualified writers, way back in 2014, perfectly describes exactly what to expect in 2025 from the same essays generated by AI programs.
