I don't view any company as a competitor; I am an individual writer.
You are a backpedaling stooge. You expose yourself in ways that you fail to understand.
So your reasoning is that because all of the previous advertisements where scammers, then the present advert must be a scammer. You don't see the logical fallacy, do you shill75?
exponentially more experienced in this industry than you are.
You are not one of these people. I certainly do consult with more experienced people in this industry and always defer to their judgment. These people also have the qualities of being kind and consistent.
Something about the site rings a bell, and it stinks, as far as I'm concerned, that they're advertising here at all...
Right, something does stink. It is the double standard that you apply to having suspicions about other individuals and companies. Does this mean when I'm done being a noob that I can make wild judgments based on my gut feeling?
I never claimed those threads constituted proof.
You directly stated in the form of a rhetorical question that EssayScam helped to expose Unemployed Professors as a scam. You can be obtuse and backpedal all you like, but you can't escape this simple fact.
A stooge or a shill is a person who claims to have no affiliations or vested interests and then goes about attacking the opposition. This description perfectly fits editor75 and is much more egregious than me being a loud-mouthed noob. At worst, my postings in this forum are annoying and somewhat embarrassing.
I understand that many forum members operate under the assumption that their potential clients are mostly not aware of what is actually happening here. The clients are expected to believe that 1) they can find unbiased and un-manipulated content on a company-owned forum (website) and 2) that the forum is populated with highly experienced, trustworthy members (experts) that have no affiliations and vested/biased interests that equate to gross conflicts. Every industry in the world practices something similar to this in some sort of venue, whether it be in a forum or otherwise. This, and editor75's obvious shilling, is why he cannot be trusted.
