Let's see...15 bucks per page, means a writer makes 5 USD per page. What kind of writer will be fine with such slave rate? Exactly! Kenyans, Indians and Pakistani.

Students need to realize that nothing is important (website, promos, all that jazz) but the writer working on your assignment. Find one and stick with him/her.

It is not difficult and there are many honest freelance writers out there (yours truly for example). The sole purpose of this forum is to badmouth the competition and push certain people/companies as the only ones being "legit". This forum creates paranoia among students and false perception that legit writers are non-existent.

Yes everything is "doable" on anonymous forum, it is not like anyone can check person's bank account to verify all these wild claims.

When something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Nothing is as easy as you argue here. I know tons of very talented developers who are really struggling and cannot sell anything to even support themselves. But 100 K through academic writing is equally bullshat. People just BS-ing each other on this forum, pretending they are well-off while in reality everyone is barely making it.

Here is what you do:

1. Go to essaychat
2. Post brief yet informative description of your project
3. Post you email
4. You will receive offers from freelance writers, scammers and companies.
5. Make your selection

Many of us legit writers also have similar accounts. I have hotmail account and I am in the USA. I do not need a website, I work directly with clients, you cannot judge the writer just because he has gmail or hotmail.

yes they are

why not post on essaychat and find a writer instead of a company?

I am finishing my PhD so I try not to advertise my writing activities much. It is possible, you just need to be careful and mindful of what to disclose and where.

oh, please! All Unis and colleges are scammers nowadays. They accept international students who cannot speak/write in English because of the income they bring. Then they leave these students to fend for themselves and to fail, as they do not give a hoot what will happen to them once the tuition is paid.

The whole education situation is one huge scam, be it student loans, inflated education costs, lousy teaching, cash-cows undergrads and even better cash-cows international students, slave adjuncts and grad students and I can go on and on.

Unis and colleges should stfu, because we do exactly what they do, plus they created this whole mess when they forgot what they should be and got greedy.

Are the colleges and Universities not the same? They scam their students just like anybody else. For example, undergrads are cash-cows that sit in overcrowded classes, where no one has any desire, nor the capability to teach them anything. Their teachers are bitter and disillusioned grad students and adjuncts, same slave labor to the Unis and colleges. They work for laughable wages, have zero job security and can be fired at the end of every term. Grad school admits more graduate students than there are positions for them. Grad students are slave labor for Unis and their advisers.

Universities and colleges scam students just like any essay mill. They sell them overpriced, overhyped, worthless degrees and use slave labor to do so.

So please, this little rant of yours indicates you have no idea how modern higher education scam works. It is more sophisticated and masked scam, but in its core essence it is all the same. Unis and colleges have turned into corporations that support bloated administrative staff and sports (in the US at least). Education is secondary and not important.

I personally think ESL with a degree from the North American/European University is much better compared to a native speaker without a degree. The reasons for that are: a) writer with a degree knows how to do research and understands the essence of academic writing; b) has critical thinking skills and other valuable skills; b) knows proper formatting, structure, reference styles, knows and has access to peer-reviewed articles and databases. Clients need to realize if a writer has a degree from the North American/European University this alone is a very good qualification.

The worst thing however is ESL without a degree and without a clue. Just last month I saw a master level project written by some Kenyan villager and I felt so bad for a client. Total rip-off and scam. How did this Kenyan villager get such order and what possessed the client to work with him is a mystery for me.


Not necessarily true. Some writers can do it for lower taxes for example.

We know that they are scammers and invaded this forum. We also know that they are not qualified to write anything. Not only they have been soliciting clients here, now they have a nerve to solicit and scam writers as well.

there is also student version you can use to check, it is as good as Turnitin but it is not free, sadly

Why Kenya writers suddenly became so active on Essaychat?

Has it always been like this or have they become more desperate and hence more aggressive?

[Moved from]: The main problem with Kenya, Pakistan, etc writers...and clients need to recognize it

There have been plenty of discussions about bad language skills of ESL writers from Kenya, Pakistan, etc. But what is missing from this conversation is the fact that clients most of the time attend North American, European, Australia/NZ Universities and these writers from Pakistan/Kenya do not have formal education to even rise to that level. I have seen numerous essays written by such writers and while their English is awkward and weird, the essay structure and research are even more troubling, because in many cases the stuff they write does not even make any sense. The bottom like is, these people are not qualified to write essays at such level not only because of their poor language skills but because they do not have education, training and abilities to handle this level of work. Solution: hire ESL writer with diploma from North America, Europe, etc. You will get high level of ESL plus ability and education to understand assignment and do required research.
