Hello everyone

I have been associated with the online writing industry for about 2 years. I wanted to make a few points here. I do not intent to offend or provoke any one, just want to know what you people think.

I very much agree with some of the members on the quality of papers written by ESL writers. I have worked for one such company that does hire ESL writers. I must say there are competent people everywhere. Some ESL writers write essays that are pretty OK as per the American Standards.

The problem is that people think this is easy money so they jump in. And the reason why they stay there (atleast for sometime) is that not everyone who order papers is a native with good command over the language. So the bad/average quality papers are sold without complaints most of the time. And now the term ESL has become such a taboo that if some one genuinely admitted that they have ESL writers would mean inferior quality.

I am also very concerned about ethics, can we use this forum to come up with a code of ethics for the industry. A code that would address concerns from every quarter, the faculty, the students, service providers (websites) and writers.

P.S.I am new here and English is not my first language, but I feel I am reasonably proficient in it.
