WB, Joe asked you a question...

this is why they aren't paying you-- you can't write in appropriate US/UK English.

granted, they shouldn't have hired you in the first place.

if "$158 are due to me from it" is any indication of your US/UK English proficiency level, orders you "wrote" (this is my best guess) were contested by furious customers who thought they were buying papers from a native speaker. of course, they demanded refunds.

I hope this has cleared up some of the mystery for you.


nice try.

they are writing-- it's getting busy. you wouldn't know, because no one in their right mind would hire you to write in English.

"nowadays" is one word.

the present perfect tense is used incorrectly "both of them have fled," because this is a completed past action.

("fled away" is not a recognized phrasal verb in English-- it's either "fled" or "went away")

their real identities being revealed is also a completed past action, and therefore also requires the simple past tense.

"nowadays, I don't see WRT and Pheelyks. I think both of them fled when their real identities were revealed." -- correct

you are getting better! but don't overuse present perfect, when you can use a simpler tense. also, you need to practice active vs. passive voice.

if you keep acting like an arrogant tard, your English will never improve.

wtf; did I just type all that for nothing?


the facts of life are all about you.

I used to work for EW, but I got sick of the 300% fines.

I started working for academia-research.com after I quit. although some posters here like to lump AR and EW together, just because AR's owner used to be partners with EW's owner (whatever; who knows?), they are actually very different companies.

btw, WB, "some posters." that's your cue. remember to come in swinging.

there are things that are the same at EW and AR, and suck:

1. fines-- ugh. warn people, give them a number of strikes, and fire them. don't fine them. it is a disincentive, and while it lines the owners' pockets, it brutalizes the writers' motivation... not a good long-term management strategy.

2. admin staff with shaky English-- I personally don't have much of a problem with this. it's all about global vs. local meaning. the global meaning usually comes through-- I'm not going to go around correcting people's prepositions, off the clock.

3. questionable street addresses-- I could care less about this, either. these are internet companies.

AR does some things a lot better:

1. the fines at AR are light-- the most I've been fined is $15.

2. admin actually can be reasoned with, although it's a pain

3. they have never missed a payment-- so far.

hope this helps.

WB: "abracadabra! I declare myself winner!"

OK, whatever, WB.

speaking of default comebacks, how many times have you repeated yourself in this thread alone? remember your "monkey want banana" phase? unfunny, uncreative... no surprise.

"default comebacks--" this coming from someone who gets their material direct from *********'s FAQ on EFL writers.

"scam," "fraud--" WB, there are free online dictionaries now. you don't have to get up and go to the bookshelf, or library. isn't progress wonderful?

yeah, that's funny. finally. you were starting to sound like a broken record.

WB, face it. you are a pretender. your OCD and horrible people skills suggest you may have once owned or operated an essay mill in a management position. now, though-- you are not an active member of any organization talked about on these boards, are you? as far as I can tell, you are just some kind of deluded gossip, collecting names for nothing, going nowhere. I don't have to prove it; I trust my gut feeling. I have 500 posts; a lot of them are trash and insults, and a lot of them are legitimate comments based on my experiences as an active writer. you have 5000 posts that add up to ****-- a bunch of screenshots, straw man arguments, personal attacks, and various other roads to nowhere. what a pathetic waste of time and energy.

yes; that is exactly what we just said. what did you think, that people couldn't read it the first time?

ffs. someone needs to get a crowbar and pry WB out into daylight. they're starting to get loony. 5000 posts, WB. that's a great retirement number; don't you think it would be a great chance to get into something new?

you don't seem to be paying attention...

it certainly justifies yours.

WB, you seem to be confusing peer-reviewed journals and anonymous message boards.

"research data." you want me to quote your posts as "research data." that's pretty good.

research data-- on what, a message board post? you're insane!

the words "substantive" and "proven" become great facades the second you get anywhere near them. please stop using these words.


no-- I admitted I was wrong. I guess admitting you're wrong is an unfamiliar concept for you-- apparently it went right under your radar.

James Dean rules! everyone loves James Dean. you are really coming with your top game, huh?

another tattle-tale brat in WB's sandbox.

how did you know my name?

jk.

welcome to the madhouse-- a bunch of paranoid, jabbering losers, pulling their delusional strings...

OK; I hate to play the grammarian, but if you insist--

"I have been writing for X for 5 years," by the use of the present perfect tense, implies explicitly that you are still working for them-- this is why the present perfect is sometimes called the "continuous."

when you combine this with "... but I no longer work for them," suggesting a past action that is complete rather than continuous, your sentence becomes nonsense.

"I have been working for X for 5 years, but I no longer work for them--" grammatically sloppy, confusing garbage.

I'm sure it's clear to you-- you wrote it.

of course, you made it clear later that you are under some sort of siege by AR, who are begging you to continue working for them... that's fine. I might mention here, though, that in the midst of this situation, you don't appear to be able to access AR's "available orders" to give any specific examples.

"Standard editing orders, 5 days, minimum order £88. Maximum academia-research CPP is $6 but generally $3."

as to the clarity of this choice passage... the first non-sentence seems to be talking about the subject of "Standard editing orders" (if one can guess the subject of a non-sentence); the subject of the 2nd sentence is "Maximum AR CPP..." and no mention is made of editing. you expect the reader to assume that the subject of both of these sentences is the same... it's reaching, once again, and sloppy.

comprehension, wtf. the problem here is that you are as clear as mud, and have your head up your *** about it. my guess-- that's exactly why AR fired you.


that would be you, and 2 or 3 other freaks who would actually do this-- pop. 3.

have you sought help for your OCD yet?

the problem is that your lackey is even less legible than you are, lunatic outsider.

yes; you!

take it easy. it would have helped if you had included "editing orders" and "maximum CPP" in the same sentence-- but now you've made everything very clear.

I did get a couple of $8-$12 CPP editing jobs from AR, but they were in the minority.

personally, I do not beat my head against the brick wall of what I could have been paid. "if only the company had no overhead, and the customers just appeared, I could be making 100% of that!" it's unrealistic. AR seems competitive with other companies, if not a bit better, and they actually send payments... they are, of course, imperfect, but there are certainly worse examples out there.

I was right with you, right up to here... it's always the last little bit, isn't it. when you should have just stfu...

you obviously haven't worked for AR in years, if you think this is avg CPP, and that now that you have let this slip, I somewhat doubt the veracity of your story that AR is somehow knocking down your door and begging you to write for them. you obviously have no idea what average CPP is on the site; maybe these figures were accurate 5 years ago... maybe...

let's get with the new millenium.

presently, AR CPP maximum is $16-20 (technical/rush), but generally $7. these figures are based on my eyeballs, looking at current orders-- if you are still a member, WRT, you should maybe check out current orders before posting inaccurate CPP figures.

more facts and eyeballs, people. fewer screenshots, stalkings, and hindsight biases.

good night... and good luck.

exactly! well put...

I love it. "someone here," or "someone else here..." no name mentioned... and WB comes running.

unfortunately, WB, we have no evidence that you have any real-world experiences. perhaps if you could post a few links to threads where you "prove" some.

OK, like I said, everyone gets a different spin from management, I'm sure. I wasn't being personal; I realize that I have to assume things. thanks for filling in the blanks; at least someone else here actually posts about their own real-world experience.

any site will naturally keep a large percentage of the profit, because you are doing nothing to get customers, process payments, do the webpage, etc. most writers accept this, because it is a saturated market in which to start your own service.

academia-research.com has competitive rates as a contractor, especially during the busy season, but their scale for rush orders is very imperfect. in my case, although I do dislike that they fine, and find their management approach occassionally inappropriate, I have never seen any of these claimed 300% fines-- people may be confusing them with essaywriters.net. I have never personally been fined more than $15 on an order by AR. also, I have received $ bonuses. and, Paypal didn't remove them. I think overall, we can perhaps agree that every writer has a different experience. objectively, it would seem that someone not currently employed by the company, may know less about their current policies.


this is a disturbing and perhaps somewhat telling misuse of the present perfect

academia-research.com is an essay mill that delivers essays to customers, and pays its writers. as a customer, there is the off chance, as with anywhere else, that you will get a **** writer-- if this happens, and you complain, the company does offer refunds. as a writer, there is the off chance, as with anywhere else, that you will get a **** administrator-- AR is notorious for its random and aggressive punishments. if this happens, and you go over their head, the company usually reduces or cancels the fine. academia-research.com is not going to win any management awards, but they are not a fraud or scam-- they offer a service for a fee, and have many satisfied customers. they have been in business for several years.

there are those on these posts who will lambast companies without ever working for, or ordering from, them. before you believe people like WB, ask yourself what they are basing their information on: is it the complex nature of actual experience, or is it a biased and simplified distillation of second-hand news? WB's Chicken Little histrionics about "Ukrainian scams" are where they belong-- an anonymous, unchecked message board with no empirical value.

if you want facts, you need to get up, go out, and collect them. having worked for AR for several years, I can tell you this: they are not perfect, but they are certainly not a fraud or a scam. it's a fee for service enterprise; you receive a product, and you have full rights to refund.

WB does not work for myessays.com.

WB knows nothing about myessays.com HR practice.

please read the title of the thread you are posting in, before you post there.

good night... and good luck.

still waiting on those posts of yours on myessays... take your time... although, it isn't as if you have anything better to do, is it?

far be it from me to expect you to provide inside information on companies for which you don't work-- exactly!


good idea! but no one was accusing you of this-- how do you have to be the moderator to backdate posts? you just have to mislabel the link.

for all I know, you could be the moderator, though. I doubt you are competent enough.

here is some advice-- mind your definition of the word spam. nothing I am doing here even vaguely constitutes spamming. your tendency towards hysterical over-exaggeration and simple-mindedness really shows itself in your tendency to label things "fraud" and "spam," which technically, by definition, are not.


, who are just as narrow-minded and ignorant as you are.

WB does not work for myessays.com; I do

WB knows nothing about myessays.com HR practice; I do, although my knowledge is limited by my experience

WB has captured some real neat screen shots from the website, but added absolutely zero in terms of helpful information to myessays.com writers, regarding contacting HR, problems with payment, etc.

and WB... I'm still waiting on those backdated posts. what's taking so long?

lied, hell, I just didn't know. what an accusation... ridiculous. like I said, I only bank essays with them. you're the one who lies-- and ruins informative threads with your personal attacks and ravings.

pheelyks: I don't usually see their homepage; I guess they do Custom stuff too. I only essay bank with them personally; sorry about that. I just work for them; they pay me thru Paypal, and I don't know or care where they are in the US.

WB: good looking out; they are in Phoenix, huh? that's useful of you. so, where is *********? any ideas?

WB = the "hear no evil" monkey.

thanks for the advice, th63. I didn't even think of emailing them directly.

I have more on my plate than I can eat right now; thanks.

5000 posts, WB... you'll be reaching it soon. you should have a party, and invite all the new friends you've made. ;)

that's funny, because this was the only post I could find on myessays.

let us know when you have some backdated "evidence" fabricated.

Dissertation Research & Review is located in the US where?

what town?

In CA where?

right? what town-- big states!

the least you could do, given your obsessive, informative up-side, WB, is track down Dissertation Research for us. some are very curious!

thanks for deleting my last post-- just calling you a liar.

WB-- I think s/he works for *********-- 4000+ posts-- liar-- viper-- backdates posts-- has posts and entire member threads deleted (remember ***********? WB doesn't want to. he was a writer for ***************, and defended them because they paid their writers-- which they do)-- WB, now deleting all cogent counterarguments from industry insiders, throwing sand once again, messing up the sandbox for others.

lying hag? u are a fake. no insider here. you're welcome for the tip-off-- yet again!

myessays.com-- a good essay bank site to write for.

wait for their Paypal, and respond.

thanks a lot.

WRT, you are such a boot licker.

btw, this is all stuff I have already posted... Jason... Atalus...

have a nice day!

pheelyks-- thanks for the support, but you are def thinking of some other company. myessays.com is an essay bank; they don't have custom orders or require a certain number of pages per day. the owner has a sense of humor, but I don't think it goes so far as to fool new applicants about the nature of the essay bank system-- it's like getting royalties on one thing, rather than just churning out the same thing over and over. so, it pays less, and it is more stable.

WB, unless you have some information on myessays.com... or maybe you'd like to start a post "of your own" on essay bank systems, everything you're saying on here is sort of turning out BS-- maybe you'd better take it elsewhere.
