Writing Careers / How to avoid dishonest clients? [20]

The fact that you have to admit to some students that you are not confident writing their essay to their desired standard is a red flag. If you stuck to topics in which you have qualifications you would not have to admit your unprofessional ineptitude.

"Unprofessional ineptitude"? What's wrong with you? This is exactly what clients should hope for anytime they consider hiring a new writer. FYI, every other good writer I've ever known in this biz handles all sorts of subjects outside of their own degrees. Even within any writer's own degree areas, there are some topics that are harder to do well than many topics outside of their degree areas. Seems to me that openly disclosing anything less than high confidence is the mark of an honest writer with a very "professional" approach to dealing with clients.

Unfortunately for you the lies and deceptions you have wielded on this forum have been exposesd by myself and others. Students, beware egotistical hacks.

FLW has always been one of the sanest and most honest/forthcoming contributors to this forum. In fact, his posts alone make it pretty obvious to anybody (including you, I suspect) that he might be the most talented writer who has ever posted on this forum. Your unmitigated hatred and obsession with trying to discredit him seems like something extremely personal and plainly rooted more in your jealousy because of that than in any intention to "protect" anybody from scams or anything else. Same goes for your repeated accusations about his "ego" and about "boasting" or "bragging," all of which makes you sound like a tweenage girl trashing the object of her jealousy.

I've also had a few clients actually mail me cash over the years.

VS.

I wouldn't be so stupid as to give any client my home address.

It also seems to me like you're the one with something to hide from your own clients, not FLW. FYI, I sent several clients to FLW for projects way beyond my own capabilities and never got back anything but great feedback and thanks from those clients.

I don't qualify as 'unscrupulous'.

I don't care where you've worked. There's nothing remotely "scrupulous" or "honest" or motivated by trying to "help" or "protect" any clients, whether in the UK or elsewhere, in attacking a good honest writer like you've been doing. There is no justification for perpetrating this kinds of sustained, highly-personal vitriol and untrue attacks against someone who has probably been the best and most reliable writer active on this entire forum for a very long time. It's shameful and somewhat sad that someone would invest this kind of energy in such undeserved malevolence, especially in his supposed "retirement." I've also known FLW's work, firsthand, and have seen the feedback from my own clients after referring them to him for very difficult projects that I couldn't handle. He's always been as legit and honorable a writer as any client possibly could hope to find on this forum, and nobody who actually knows anything about FLW would ever believe a single word of your months' long disinformation campaign against him.

I'm not them; it's not for me to say what they will or won't do. Doesn't seem like suing students would be a very profitable business model. Lawyers are expensive.

I do think Jesus may be unhappy with you, though.

I think the essay providers just get a really disapproving look on their faces and maybe do a judgmental "tsk tsk tsk" sound ...

Grapho,

I believe the answers you seek lie in Google search.

If a company is from the Ukraine, Pakistan, etc., chances are someone here is going to point that fact out. When a random student sees an ad for such a company and decides to check out its reputation on Google, one of the results may well be an essayscam post along the lines of, "Company X is a pack of THIEVING LIARS from country Z ... AVOID!" The student will probably then look for another essay provider.

Why would anybody want that outcome to occur? Your guess is as good as mine.

Grapho: similar to you, but without the chemistry, and a little bit less sleep -- a few two-night no-sleep stretches thrown in there. And yes, it does suck.

What's the longest you've gone without sleep in the service of essay-writing? How long have you been able to keep up an insane pace?

Crystal Gale,

I don't feel comfortable calling you Chris, because I've been a long-time fan and your music has meant a lot to me. I just wanted to say that I think you're one of the best country music singers out there, and I think your long hair is awesome. I never imagined that you would show up on this website.

Crystal Gale herself! Absolutely fantastic ...

Still, it costs $10 to register a domain and $1 per month to host a branded email (total cost: $22 per year).

Which also means that doing so is not much of an indicator of quality.

Like I say, I'm not disagreeing that there is a ton of fraud. I just don't think that this particular method of identifying likely fraudulent writers/companies is of much use. W2B has listed site after site after site that have been proven to be fraudulent. On the other hand, Professor Verb is known to be an honest writer and, if I'm not mistaken, he has dealt mostly or entirely from an aol account for years. To further muddy the waters, there are reputable writers like FreelanceWriter, who has a site but chooses to use an aol account.

Using this method to figure out who's legit is like using a speedometer to check the weather. Are you statistically more likely to get someone legit through a site than through a yahoo account? Yes? Maybe? I don't know? If you were to choose one of each, randomly, I bet you'd end up with two frauds.

Students are much better served by some of the other techniques that have often been suggested, like placing a small order for an assignment with a long deadline and seeing how it goes. If they want to stick with websites, that's fine, but I wouldn't encourage them to think that's a mark of quality. It just means that someone had $22 one given year.

Some of the very top writers in the business are on this site and are using email addresses of the type that Major mentioned. If Major's "rule" is a rule, then it falls under the category of "rules are made to be broken."

Yes, many people -- perhaps most? -- who use such addresses are frauds. But I could also make this true statement: Many essay websites -- perhaps most? -- are fraudulent.

Buyer beware.

so whatever anyone posts in here is mostly like talking to yourself.

Seems that you read it, though.

but it's not possible to tell who they hire or if they plagiarize unless you order from them?

Hmm ... I'm not sure, but the Smoothie was good.

They have drastically improved. They have all suddenly developed native English writing abilities and honest business practices. They have stopped plagiarizing and they no longer argue with you, give you the runaround and threaten to report you to your school when you call them on their charades. (But, as noted, they no longer do the charades.)

Last time I did business with one of them, they even sent a free Smoothie with my order.

There was a lot of tension, but it's getting better. We're all heading to the massage parlor and sauna later.
