Really sorry to hear about that mate.You have to be careful when dealing with online services. In all honesty it is best to work through a site that you were referred to by a friend.

I have picked up writing too and probably spend 20 hours a week on it. The income is certainly better than what I earn as a full time white collar professional.

If you can become efficient at writing and have a entrepreneurial mindset, the situation can certainly be optimized.

Alright. I am just trying to be honest with my prospective clients. How do you know the size of my pool of writers?

And what is it about my business that involves scamming?

Okay. Really just here for a constructive discussion. Not for blind judgement.

Okay. So what portions of my site need improvement?

In terms of grammar, syntax,etc.

Honestly I've a client base of about 80 uni and college kids who have reaped great results from me. I have an entire following of patrons on the bodybuilding forum.

Why is everyone so angry?

Look into writing up resumes,cover letters,college entrance essays.

They may not be as profitable as term papers or essays, but it'll help you stay busy.
Keep in mind some people do go to school in the summer!

Should just go with companies that friends referred you to honestly. Hehe, you can just go with me brah? writemyessaytoday.com

Understandable. Hopefully you're able to find a better provider in the future.

I can do that same paper for much cheaper. And I am legitimate :)

You've never been scammed by writemyessaytoday.com.

Why is everyone in here so negative ?

Didn't know it was against forum rules. Sorry won't happen again. How is my site full of blatant lies and misrepresentations? You've never received an essay from me.

I am not aware of this rule. Thanks.

Do you run your own gig too?

Yes. Please go there. I am interested to see where you got this evidence from :)

WritersBeware,Where you at brah?

Thanks for catching that mistake. I appreciate it. I made the necessary changes. I just launched recently and WP doesn't have a 'park option' so the 'under construction' phase is visible to the public.

Any suggestions like that are very helpful.

I've already taken note of the anti-promotion policy :)

Thanks Khan

Thanks Twig appreciate the suggestion!

Hey Grammarly,

I just realized the majority of the 'errors' were from quoted text from an actual source. If a quoted source has errors I leave them as they are. As I believe, that is the point of pulling a 'direct' quote, leaving it as is.

Y u mad tho?

I haven't said anything about my services since I was told not to the first time

You must do a good job of chasing people out as this forum seems to be primarily occupied by you. However, I see the benefit of sticking around here, so I have no intention of leaving.

And in regards to my writing services, keep disbelieving :)

Good luck with your writing goals in 2011

I don't think having turn 'in my work as their own' is directly against the law within the U.S.A.
I'm assuming you live in the U.S.A. though.

If you are American, do you have a source to such a service being illegal?

This is what I found:

legalzoom.com/intellectual-property-rights/copyrights/plagiarism-what-is-it-exactly

As far as that snippet goes theres nothing illegal about a writing service from the writer's perspective.

I know what I'm doing :).

I'm just learning about the industry as I go.

I tried searching for the list of laws, but I don't see anything. Also, you mentioned they were state laws. Did he list laws for every one of the 50 states?

I've actually been running my service for 3 months. Website came later after I established my client base after being encouraged to set up a store front by them.

To me success is running a very profitable and sustainable business. I run my gig in a very customer-centric manner where I put an extra effort in customer retention.

So yeah, successful in my perspective is a high level of lucrativeness + high customer retention

However, we are all entitled to our own opinions of what successful is :)


Not all of my customers are off BB.com. I've already began projects on a few customers I've gotten through here this past week. Additionally I've began building my international student clients locally. Either way they are all getting good marks :). So that says something.

And I clearly put a different effort in my papers versus a forum. Reason being papers pay, forum posts don't. :)

O I C


Thank you so much!

Yep.
Its not that hard.

Yes beware that its not that difficult to pump out a good paper :). All you have to do is develop an efficient process for writing.

Yikes...That honestly sounds shady. Sorry that happened. You can try filing a dispute with Paypal or a chargeback with your bank if they fail to deliver a legitimate essay.

Why would I know these things? I've never paid for an essay when I was in uni. And I don't have a need to ask for peoples IDs. I've had success just using Paypal for everything.

r u a wizard?

And yes you can 'try' to file a dispute with paypal. Otherwise they wouldn't keep the option there.

Yes I do know the protections it provides the buyer/seller.

I asked you if you were a wizard. You said you are a wizard because I'm doing magic? That makes no sense.

You can file a dispute such a service on Paypal. Didn't really understand the point of that intadasting analogy.

Do you run a brick and mortar writing service? or click and mortar? or just online based?I am really interested to see what your business is like.

Don't think I've found one positive post by you in this entire forum. y u mad tho?

Really here just to get information. Don't really care about getting 'owned'. Just happy I was informed and was able to make the appropriate changes/modifications and get a Terms of Services page added on my site.

Thanks EssayScam!

I certainly understand where you are coming from Perry. Ethical or unethical, people make their own choices. I just worry about myself.

On a side note, are you an American living in the Phillipines? What is it like over there if you are a migrant to the island?

Yeah. I was a bit ignorant though. Didn't know we couldn't post URLs at all. But I got a lot of constructive feedback. As much as animosity there is towards me since I joined a couple days ago, I've learned a lot about ways to improve my site and cover my butt.

Nice. Are you Pinoy originally or are you married to a pinay?

And to answer your question, right and wrong are incredibly subjective.
I do not think its wrong to provide people with a structure/sample of an essay to help them create their own essay. I do think its wrong if I'm strictly trying to create work for them to claim as their own.

In the same token, going by Academic Dishonesty policies, it is certainly wrong for students to purchase essays and submit them as their own.

I think the ball lies more in the court of the user when it comes to who is wrong though. Seeing that they are seeking out such services, requesting to purchase a service, and passing off a writing in their own puts them on the wrong end.

But as I said before, this is IMO. It gets way too philosophical lol

I no understand ilnglesh brah? Help out me plz
What do?

Are you really that mad that I'm generating so many leads with my 'horrible English'?

If so , you can always ignore me.


Okah brah, you from the west coast?

Your first claim is quite invalid. Unless you have access to my books and records :). Which I don't think you do.

But its good to know you're bothered. That would explain all this anger you hold behind the anonymity of a computer screen.

Khan,
I certainly understand and respect your request. I joined this forum to share ideas and brainstorm with other writers. I've created a handful of great threads.

But everytime I create a thread for discussion,Felix decides to derail it and start trolling.

If you Want to help you can always re-direct this discussion to it's original topic.

Felix,
Thanks for the offer but I'd rather not :). Good to know that you make money unlike the rest of the English majors I know who still work as waiters.

Eh
I honestly prefer to create a new thread if an older thread is more than a few months old. Its a good way to keep a forum active. Especially this one, which seems to be dying and the UI is incredibly outdated. Maybe if enough people start conversing on here they'll consider upgrading to a forum interface that isn't from the early 90s.

My threads are primarily in regards to running a more efficient business. Old threads have little use to me. Would rather create a newer thread that'll have information more relevant to the time period.

Is it possible to discuss things without insulting one another? Its immature and incredibly counterproductive.
