The purpose of bringing this up was to let the fellow members know that they could meet people speaking English as their first language anywhere in the world.
And they would not find every American speaking English as his/her first language.
I am really tired at the moment and dont feel like proofreading this post. =)
WritersBeware
Non-American does not mean poor quality, ESL Garbage, Fraud and scam.
Never once have I claimed such. In fact, I have qualified exactly what I mean on numerous occasions.
American does not mean qualified writers and good quality.
So, are you suggesting that the average, ESL writer overseas is as qualified to write-professionally, for money-in the English language as the average, EFL writer in America?
I refer to people speaking and writing English that would be acceptable as "American" English in any school or university.
Well, in my experience, those are few and far between. They may get there with further instruction from American professors in America, but cultural differences make it nearly impossible for an ESL writer's text to be indistinguishable from that of an EFL writer in America.
They may have been getting a false impression that "Non-American" = scam
As I have proven time and time again, nearly 100% of foreign (non-American/British/Canadian) sites are fraudulent. Why/how? They blatantly lie about their location, qualifications, and experience. If you feel that my assertion is false, I welcome you to provide evidence. (Don't just claim that I'm wrong because you think that I'm "mean.") I could provide you with a list of about 700 fraudulent, foreign sites that engage in verifiable fraud. Have you seen any of my investigations in this forum?
I have not found a single, American site that engages in verifiable fraud. Believe me, if American sites were engaging in any sort of fraudulent tactics, the scammers from Ukraine, Pakistan, Philippines, etc. would have posted about it 1,000,000 times by now in order to take the well-deserved heat off of themselves.
In certain cases Non-American service could be as good as any American service and yet cost less.
Every dog has its day. However, American customers shouldn't have to roll the dice every time they order.
Tell me-when you go to a restaurant, do you willingly sit at the table knowing that it is overwhelmingly likely that the food you receive will be contaminated? If you were aware of the odds of contamination in advance, I doubt that you'd ever walk through the door.So, are you suggesting that the average, ESL writer overseas is as qualified to write-professionally, for money-in the English language as the average, EFL writer in America?
I do not have any statistics on the averages.
"However, our essay writers complete orders for students from all countries, Australia to Zaire."
Do you know the site I am quoting?
The Site you recommend does not hire Americans only. They hire writers from all countries so would you now please warn everyone about the possible contamination here ;)
I know two American Sites that are involved in Verifiable Fraud! Please do not ask me to name them. I do not have legal evidence.
I so enjoy your posts :D
WB:
I am extremely upset and depressed. Defend this!
At one instance the legit company your recommend says: "Our professional, AMERICAN writers produce new research documents on an individual basis, so our research materials are unique, original, technically precise, and up-to-date."
At another places says: "However, our essay writers complete orders for students from all countries, Australia to Zaire."
Please :(
