I just happened upon this site, after looking into BuyEssay.org from Ukraine. Glad I did. Does anyone have a site that I could order a Psychology Masters Research Proposal? Obviously something legit. I have the bibliographies, but no time to write. The prof. is a real ditz researcher, with no incite as to how to teach. Boring as hell. Any help would be appreciated. If you can not post, advertise, please PM, if you can. Thanks for any help. It needs to be done by Wed. 1/7/10. Thanks, Elizabeth

You better take time and use the search box above. You will probably get discussions of what ET has to offer.

I've been writing about 50 papers a month for them since 2003 so I know what I'm talking about.

I wish you had been my writer when I hired them!!! The writer who took my order misunderstood the question, wrote on a tangential topic, gave erroneous facts, & falsified citations. To the writer's credit, he/she did do 2 minimal re-writes, but in the end still did not complete the assignment. I did contact Customer Service & unfortunately never heard back from them. That said, I still think ET is legit - it's just the luck of the draw who gets assigned.

I've written for US magazines and wanted to expand my horizons.

If you have enough experience writing for US magazines and you want to expand your horizons, why not try to set up your own e-magazine instead? Write most of the articles yourself and work with the web hosting company to gain advertising for your e-mag. You can also try to branch out by setting up a regular column at Patreon. Writers who have a knack for niche writing often move to that format of writing to help augment their income. It also helps keep your magazine afloat and exclusive in both content and readership.

Independent writers who have talents far beyond simple and advanced academic writing have a future in the direct writers for hir business. While I cannot mention the specific companies that allow freelancers to sign up for these opportunities, I can say that a simple Google search will return the wanted results when the correct keywords are used. Multi talented writers should find themselves within the qualifications needed by people who hire ghost writers for blogs, speeches, journal writing, among others. The academic writing field is too crowded these days with many independent writers breaking away from company relationships. It would be better for any truly gifted writer to get out of this field and go into another, more professional, and less of a gray aread field of writing.

The academic writing field is too crowded these days with many independent writers breaking away from company relationships. It would be better for any truly gifted writer to get out of this field and go into another, more professional field of writing.

I don't know that the academic writing field is necessarily getting more crowded, but to whatever extent that might be true, it would be because there are more totally inexperienced new entrants to the field, many of whom probably aren't even qualified to do it very well. I'd never suggest that highly-experienced academic writers --some of whom have been doing this pretty successfully for more than two decades -- should vacate their long-time field of employment just to make room for brand new entrants, many of whom aren't likely to make a long-term career of it. That's not doing customers any favors, either, because customers are best served by highly experienced writers with extensive project portfolios of thousands of projects in hundreds of different academic areas.

I greatly reduced my work in this field, briefly, to take a much more "professional" legitimate job writing for the US Federal Government and that work was actually much easier than professional academic writing, and my paycheck was constant, even though there were many months of the year where I had almost no work to do at all. Still, just having to get up every morning at 6:00 AM and get my workouts in after work and rush to get to bed by 11:00 PM 5 days a week was sucking the life out of me. It left me with almost no life, with most of my weekends dedicated to just running errands like food shopping, doing my laundry, and preparing my clothes and meals for the next week of work. I actually "work" 10x more doing this for a living, but I almost never have to wake up to an alarm clock, and I can workout 5x a week and play hockey several times a week, and lie out to get sun on nice days, none of which I could ever do working a regular traditional job. Doing this for a living allows me to have a life that I can enjoy outside of my work. I've ghostwritten for lawyers, produced white papers and speeches for corporate clients, and I've had various other professional clients, such as veterinary clinics and hospitals that hired me to write patient-education materials and website copy. Unfortunately, those types of gigs come along very irregularly and it just wouldn't be possible for me to earn a decent living doing that stuff full-time.

If I were a customer in this industry, I'd much rather use a writer who's been doing this for decades and who fully intends to continue doing it until retirement than some brand new "writer" or some totally untested wannabe writer who just decided this year to try give this kind of work a shot for the time being.

@FreelanceWriter

All writers start out as novices and so why shouldn't a client hire them? Everyone starts out this way and it is churlish and petty to deny them a chance.

Your second para is off topic autobiographical irrelevance to people using this forum.

I would advise clients to use a reputable essay writing company providing qualified writers specialising in the subject(s) relevant to those qualifications(s) or freelance writers who write only on subjects in which they have an appropriate qualification.

I always recommend that a writer qualified overseas should be avoided in favour of a writer qualified in the country where the essay is required. This way clients avoid writers professing to write competently in all topics in "a Jack of all trades master of none" unprofessional manner.

My post was in response to the suggestion that the best and most experienced writers who are good enough writers to find other types of writing jobs should get out of this business to make room for all of the new writers who are now crowding the field. I happen to prefer this type of work to a traditional writing job; and after doing it for 20+ years, I'm very good at it. So, I'm not going to consider leaving it, especially for the purpose of making room for novice writers because the field is getting more "crowded," to whatever extent that observation might be accurate.

All writers start out as novices and so why shouldn't a client hire them?

Obviously, clients may hire whomever they want to hire. However, if clients want to be sure that they're going to get high-quality work for their money, they should use the most experienced writers who've been doing this for decades rather than complete novices. The vast majority of novice writers who enter this field don't actually continue doing this for more than a few years; many of them do it for only a few months. As is the case in any other field, anybody who has been doing this work for decades and who has already written (literally) thousands of projects is much better at it than someone who just decided, a few months or a few days ago, to try this kind of work for the first time, often mainly because they can't find a traditional job and/or just to earn some money while they're trying their best to find a traditional job. Frankly, even those of us who have been doing this forever and who were already very good writers when we started would never compare our own "novice" projects to the projects that we produce nowadays, myself included. If that's true of the best and most experienced writers, just imagine the difference between our current work and the work of novices who don't actually end up doing this for more than a few months. Aside from not being as good as very experienced writers who have been doing this full time for many years, most novice writers don't have as much at stake in terms of establishing and maintaining an impeccable reputation for always delivering work of the highest quality as do writers who've been doing business under the same ID and email address for decades. When clients hire a novice writer, they're doing business with someone with much less to lose by providing bad work, and the odds very strongly suggest that they're doing business with someone who won't even still be doing this kind of work for a living a year or two from now.

When I was a complete novice at this particular kind of work, 22 years ago, I was already a very good writer; and it was on the basis of my writing samples and my law degree that the first company that hired me departed from their usual hiring practices (for the very first time, according to what they told me back then) by agreeing to start me out at their highest pay rate instead of at their usual pay rate for all of their new writers. In doing so, they also made it explicitly clear to me that my pay rate would only continue to be at their highest level if all of my work turned out to be as good as was expected of me. After only a few weeks, and after almost all of my company clients started requesting me for their subsequent orders, the company started offering me bonuses to take on some of the most difficult projects that were lingering on the assignment board; they also started offering me bonuses to take on some private projects for their family members without ever posting them publicly on the assignment board. My own "novice" work was much better than that of my peers at the time, because I was already a very good writer. Nevertheless, it still doesn't compare that well to my projects, now; and I'm someone who did actually end up doing this full time for more than two decades, which, by itself, is an extreme rarity. If my own novice projects don't compare very well to my current work, just imagine the comparison between my current work and the work of complete novices today, especially when a much worse current economy and many fewer employment options likely motivated those new novice writers to explore this field, now, for the very first time.

@FreelanceWriter
Rather than giving hope and encouragement to novice writers you trash them. I was not suggesting that experienced writers make way in the crowded marketplace by removing themselves. A novice writer who concentrates on writing essays on topic(s) in which they have an appropriate qualification is to be preferred to someone who brags about writing on topics in which they are completely unqualified. Self promotion at every opportunity smacks of insecurity.

I do wonder why someone who spends so much time stating how great they are feels the need to advertise on a forum rather than relying on their website.

@a1writer Self publicity may be different from the truth. He may act confident and insist his business is successful when the exact opposite could be the reality. His age old website does not evoke a sense of confidence in a modern student. It is too self centered and does not really consider the client's needs. Specially since no prices are mentioned for even the most basic services he might be offering. Students need specifics these days. They also need more engaging websites to deal with. I do not think his website works as effectively as his self promotion at this forum. Which is why he is more focused here than on heightening the profile of his website or increasing his social media presence like the others have successfully done.

Having checked out his website I agree with you 100%.
Writers whether novice or experienced should display a standard pricing structure so clients know the cost before ordering. Haggling over prices is unseemly and unprofessional.

Having checked out his website

"Checking out" is hardly synonymous with stalking like an obsessed jealous psychopath.

Haggling over prices is unseemly and unprofessional.

You know what's "unseemly and unprofessional"? Obsessively stalking a competitor and constantly instigating vicious totally unprovoked one-sided attacks full of totally disingenuous purported criticism and outright lies. Given that you've obviously spent more time on my website in the past six months than I have, you undoubtedly already know that I never "haggle" over prices, at all, ever. My FAQs specifically state that I never negotiate prices; it says that I provide a price quote for projects and that whatever price I quote is going to be the price of any project ordered from me.

Writers whether novice or experienced should display a standard pricing structure so clients know the cost before ordering.

Obviously, my customers know the cost of their projects before ordering, because they're always prepaid in full. My only clients who don't know the price of projects before ordering are those who have already used me for so many regular projects that they trust me enough to hold onto their lump-sum prepayments from which I just bill off their projects as I do them, and to just let them know, on delivery, what the price of that project is and how much credit they still have remaining for their future projects.

Typically (but not always), these are very busy professional nurses pursuing advanced degrees who need numerous small projects, such as class forum posts and short responses to their classmates' posts, projects whose length is assigned as a range rather than as an exact page count, projects for which the written page count doesn't accurately reflect the amount of work and time involved, and larger projects that must be submitted in very small weekly increments. They know me well enough to trust that my pricing after the fact isn't going to vary at all from pricing in advance and that I'm never going to take advantage of their trust. It's much like a "retainer," except that nothing is ever billed off their pending credit until it's for a new project; nevertheless, it saves us both time emailing about every project one at a time. Currently, I have only one (MBA) academic client who is doing this, replenishing her account with $500 - $1,000 payments whenever her account credit dips below a couple of hundred dollars, and one professional client who does the same for his promotional materials and client communications.

Specially since no prices are mentioned for even the most basic services he might be offering.

As I've explained before, there are several very good reasons that I don't include prices on my website:

1. Because I work alone and don't have a staff of writers, I price projects (partly) on how much time and work they're likely to involve for me. Likewise, because I'm much busier at some times than at other times, I also price projects (partly) on how much I need to take them at the particular time that they're needed. The busier I am, the more I might charge for projects that would require me to squeeze them onto my calendar and/or to rearrange (or cancel) elements of my non-work life to fit them in. Essay companies with many writers don't have to worry about that, because if some of their writers are too busy to take the project, plenty of others might take it off the assignment board.

2. Many times, when clients, especially new clients, email me for the first time about a project, the only information they provide is something like "Hi. I need a 5-page college History paper due in a week. How much?" This is simply insufficient information for me to price it. I always need to see the exact topic, and the exact specs, and any and all sources or other materials they'll be sharing for the project. There's just no way that I'd want to try to automate that process. After I review the topic, specs, and any sources or materials that the client will be providing, I respond with an exact price. If this were done through an automated process, sometimes, I'd have to contact the client after placement of the order to explain that a 5-pg essay critically analyzing a 30,000-word source cannot be done for the price of an ordinary 5-page essay. The same goes for projects whose specs greatly increase their difficulty and/or the time that they'd require. If I allowed customers to place (or even just price) their orders automatically, some of them might accuse me of a "bait and switch" after I informed them that their projects would cost more than indicated on some general pay chart. I don't need that.

3. Sometimes, the deadlines about which clients originally inquire turn out to be either completely arbitrary rather than reflecting the exact due date on the client's end of things, or they include a week-long deadline cushion on the client's end. Plenty of times, I get requests about projects with a very short proposed due date for which I'd charge much more than for the same project with a longer due date. During the busy seasons, especially, there are (initial) deadline requests that either just can't be accommodated because of how booked up I am, already, or for which I'd charge substantially less with a longer deadline, also based on how booked up I am and how inconvenient it would be for me to add that much shorter deadline to my calendar. Sometimes, the client has no wiggle room on that initial deadline request; however, much more often than not, when I respond indicating what the price would be for the original deadline vs. the price for delivery a few days later, clients immediately respond that they'll take the longer deadline. None of that is anything that could be executed through automated pricing.

These are only a few of the very good reasons that I don't advertise prices. I review every project inquiry, ask whatever questions I need to ask, and then, I provide the price of the project. None of my clients has ever complained about this, either. The only pejorative comments about this have been from my competitors scraping the barrel to disparage me publicly on this forum by implying that there's something "shady" or "unprofessional" about this. There isn't.

@FreelanceWriter

When someone has to resort to preposterous claims that the same person has been "stalking" him over many years creating successive aliases I think that speaks volumes about them. It screams insecurity on your part that you lash out with pathetic accusations against anyone who dares to criticise you even when their reasoning is justified.

FW quote "Obsessively stalking a competitor and constantly instigating vicious totally unprovoked one-sided attacks full of totally disingenuous purported criticism and outright lies."
Have I hit a nerve? I am not a competitor since I am a retired writer. As usual your comments are inaccurate.

As for "outright lies," that is your domain (50% revised down to about one third of writing for UK market). Is that the correct figure or maybe it should be 25%. By posting lies you dent your credibility. I would like you to point to any outright lies that I have posted against you. Delusions of grandeur can lead to paranoia.

FW quote "Essay companies with many writers don't have to worry about that, because if some of their writers are too busy to take the project, plenty of others might take it off the assignment board." This is an endorsement for clients to favour essay companies over freelance writers since any unforeseen situations can be easily addressed by other writers.

Your excuse for your lack of transparent pricing doesn't stack up.
If you had a decent website clients would complete a contact form, state the essay question in full, number of words, deadline, grade, referencing, required sources and any other relevant information. This would permit a definite price to be given to the client assuming you put the pricing information about qualification, word number, grades, and deadline on the website. Reputable essay writing companies and freelance writers have no problem with being transparent in this way.

My aim, as per the purpose of this forum, is to protect students from freelance writers and essay companies whom I deem unreliable for various reasons. Being British I have a special interest in helping students studying at British universites and am keen to call out writers who can't even produce a website fit for the 21st century.

This is an aim that I share with you. I try my best to share information to the best of my abilities but am often challenged by his likes simply because he believes that anybody who says anything on this forum is working against him. There is a problem with the way he views the other participants here.

He is not working along the lines of the forum objectives because he views other freelancers at this forum as competition. He sees this forum as his personal hunting ground just because he pays to advertise. He is not one who believes in fair play nor fair competition. Which is why he is pointing the students towards the companies he used to work for, without actually naming them. He can only hope the students stumble across his companies and he gets the work order that way.

I can only presume that he has gone back to company attached academic writing because he is not getting any clients for himself based on the way he has been acting and actively lying at this forum. Of course he will not admit that and will instead attack yet again based on "unfounded claims", showing he does not understand what "presume" means.

Students know better than to trust a person who retracts his statements for recalibration when he realizes his exaggerations will and have gotten him into trouble.

I haven't taken a single order from any essay company since 2013 and I can't even imagine anything that I've posted recently that would suggest that I'm "pointing students toward" ANY essay company (other than towards my own sole proprietorship) through my authorized advertisements on this forum. Kindly quote anything I've posted anywhere recently to the contrary.

I can only presume that he has gone back to company attached academic writing because he is not getting any clients for himself based on the way he has been acting and actively lying at this forum.

This "presumption" is so nonsensical on its face that nobody even needs to trust my refutation. Your premise here seems to be that my advertising and self-promotional efforts here have been unsuccessful. Therefore, precisely because I've been so unsuccessful at marketing my own services, I've switched to using those exact same promotional efforts to steer customers towards an essay company for which I used to work, and with the goal of allowing me to take orders from that essay company and to get paid approximately half as much per page as I earn from direct clients. Does that sound the least bit sensible to you? Why would my indirect efforts to steer clients towards a commercial essay company be any more successful than my very direct efforts to advertise and steer customers towards my own essay company?

Of course he will not admit that and will instead attack yet again based on "unfounded claims", showing he does not understand what "presume" means.

I'm not "attacking" you; but I do know what "presume" doesn't mean: it doesn't mean making nonsensical things up out of whole cloth.

He is not working along the lines of the forum objectives because he views other freelancers at this forum as competition. ... He is not one who believes in fair play nor fair competition.

First, by definition, every freelancer (and company) here is a direct competitor of every other freelancer (and company) here. Second, I have a very long history on this forum of competing only fairly and above board and without ever resorting to criticizing, much less defaming any other legitimate service provider here. Before they retired, Professor Verb and Pheelyks and I always competed against one another without resorting to attempting to undermine, disparage, or post negative comments about one another. The same applies to my competitive relationship with Meokhan, and ResearchPro, before he died in 2015. Both Professor Verb and ResearchPro referred to me as the best writer in the business, because all of us shared the same approach to competing against other legitimate writers only ethically and fairly.

Probably the best example is that when someone posted this thread to try to ruin his business "Pheelyks Versus Freelance Writer: A comparative analysis" https://essayscam.org/forum/es/pheelyks-versus-freelance-writer-comparative-analysis-3051/ , I could have simply remained silent to allow him to absorb as much damage as possible, because he and were direct competitors, at the time. Instead, I was the first person to defend him, because I knew him well enough to know that what was being said about him just wasn't true. I doubt there's a better example anywhere on this forum refuting your claim that I don't believe in "fair play" and "fair competition."

You, yourself, posted many times about my hard-earned reputation for delivering only the highest-quality work to my clients:

From what I have read, you come highly recommended by most students and, dare I say, even some of your previous competitors.

essayscam.org/forum/gt/good-paper-1546/#msg85332

Although Freelancewriter and I may have our differences and disagreements at times, the one thing that will never change is my admiration for the work he has done for previous students and other working professionals. ...

And:

There are no negatives to be read about the work he provides, even if you try hard ... to find one. ... you will not lose anything by trying his services. He is worth the risk.

essayscam.org/forum/es/genuine-companies-outsource-esl-writers-personal-473/#msg85609

How do you know it is an original paper? You don't. With the exception of Freelancewriter who takes pains to ensure the originality of the paper he submits to the student, everyone else must remain suspect.

essayscam.org/forum/gt/original-papers-1618/#msg85389

Then, all because I made a very polite (complimentary) reference to the fact that your English is excellent for an ESL speaker/writer, you seem to have completely reversed your statements about me, because you took that as a horrible insult, even though it wasn't intended as one. What I can "presume" from that is that you're incredibly-thin-skinned and extremely defensive about your English Language skills, and that you were terribly insulted at the notion that your writing, although excellent for ESL, is still recognizable as ESL, which it is. You then responded as follows:

Which was done when you thought I was a competitor in the field to try and discredit me in the eyes of potential clients. I am confident enough in my English skills, both spoken and written.

https://essayscam.org/forum/wc/takes-lot-competent-writer-3261/2/

As I mentioned in that thread, I wasn't trying to insult you or to "discredit" you in any way; but ever since that comment, you've been scraping the barrel to accuse me of "lying," mainly because I said that approximately half of my clients were from the UK. I then searched for something that I could upload to prove what I'd said; but the only record I found that I could post was from a month where I did roughly $10K in business, from 26 clients, 17 of whom were from the US, 8 of whom were from the UK, and 1 of whom was from Australia, and 75% of whom were repeat clients. In conjunction with uploading that document, I acknowledged that only about one-third of those clients were from the UK. Ever since, you and your tag-team buddy here have been trying to portray me as a "liar" who can't be trusted about anything that I've ever posted in 14 years on this forum.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/mx5jnc791qxbag2/30%20Days%20Customers.docx?dl=0

https://essayscam.org/forum/wc/takes-lot-competent-writer-3261/2/

Likewise, when your new friend here (who previously accused you and me of being the same person under fake duplicate IDs) claimed that I couldn't possibly be qualified to write UK Law projects competently, I provided proof to the contrary. First, I demonstrated that I'm honest and careful about taking on any projects that I can't take on with confidence, by quoting a UK Law client whose work I turned down (in 2011), precisely because I never take projects unless I'm confident that I can do them well.

I have never used FLW, But i can tell you he is the real deal. I asked him to do a fairly complicated essay on uk law, but he would not take it because he was more familiar with US law. ... FLW is legit.

https://essayscam.org/forum/es/amons-2176/#msg84449

Then, in Post #17 of this thread linked below, I updated my history with that same client. He decided to use me a few months after I declined his first project; and he was sufficiently happy with the result that he became a regular client, using me for numerous subsequent UK Law (and other) projects for several years (and then again, for non-academic work, in 2020). To prove that (because anytime I say anything, one or both of you call me a "liar"), I posted evidence of our email history, after very carefully redacting all but 2 letters in a very long email address to protect that client's anonymity. In response to that, you two started claiming that I'd violated various laws about "Internet privacy, " and, later, that I "don't respect" my clients' privacy, both of which accusations are patently ridiculous.

https://essayscam.org/forum/es/academic-writing-providers-orders-refunds-2897/#msg85797

He sees this forum as his personal hunting ground just because he pays to advertise.

Between the three of us, I'm actually the only one who's completely honest about what I'm doing on this forum: I pay to advertise here very openly and I have earned a 14-year reputation on this forum for delivering only the highest-quality projects; and my reputation as an honest reliable writer beyond this forum goes back 22 years. When I wrote for essay companies from 2003 to 2013, I also defended them against any accusations that I knew could not be true. I haven't defended, promoted, or had any association with or interest in any commercial essay company (other than my own) since at least 2013.

There are no disinterested individuals on this forum who don't earn a living from this business or who don't hope to find a reliable essay provider: there are only prospective customers hoping to avoid scams, disappointed customers who've already been scammed, writers and disclosed company reps who advertise and/or represent themselves openly and honestly, and undisclosed dishonest writers and company reps just pretending to be here for some "other" altruistic reasons, and, purposely, without ever admitting that they're really writers or company reps. There are no altruists or humanitarians here, spending many hours of their lives researching and posting about essay companies. Anybody who actively posts here who isn't a customer is someone earning a living from this industry in one way or another; and the more time anybody spends posting here, the more dependent he or she undoubtedly is on this forum for business.

I am not a competitor since I am a retired writer.

There aren't any "retired" writers here, either. You know who really are "retired" writers? Professor Verb and Pheelyks. You know how anybody can be sure that's true? Because neither of them has ever bothered to come back here even once to waste even a minute of his retirement posting about this industry since (really) retiring from this field. Nobody sane "retires" from this business but still wastes any part of his life posting about essay companies, much less lying about, viciously attacking, disparaging, and defaming legitimate writers with whom he "isn't" competing for business, and in the most dishonest, unethical, creepy and shadiest way possible.

@FreelanceWriter

Interesting how you persist in name calling in order to detract from the valid points raised in my earlier posts. Most people can see through your tactics.

I cannot recall accusing of you and @noted of being the same person; another of your frequent lies. The damage to your reputation has already been done all by yourself without any help from me. Exaggerating and stating false information do not equal trust. Your attempt to make me out to be a stalker shows your frustration and delusion.

It seems I cannot even retire in peace. Maybe you are too dense to appreciate the new legislation that has been mentioned and fail to understand this is why I have given up writing. If you comprehended the recent change in law you wouldn't need to question my reasons. Your failure to grasp the law is a good example for people studying in the UK to stick to qualified writers who have achieved relevant qualifications in the UK.

I didn't realise that 'retiring' meant I shouldn't be allowed any views in this forum. I am not familiar with Pheelyks or Professor Verb (well before my time) but I might not have had cause to comment on their respective writing ability.

Unfortunately for you I only comment when I see the need to protect students from unreliable second rate essay companies or freelance writers. I have a particular interest in protecting and alerting students studying at UK education establishments but will also do the same for global students where I can.

It's a shame that you are so blinkered by spewing hatred towards anyone who dares to criticise you instead of revising your website after my (free) advice.

Your attempt to make me out to be a stalker shows your frustration and delusion.

Here's only a partial history of the most recent series of unprovoked attacks against me, which should suffice for any objective reader to decide whether my characterizations of attribution are "delusional" or well-supported by a wealth of circumstantial evidence. I'll refrain from making any specific characterizations or from offering any of my own conclusions about what IDs might be related to the same individuals and/or other IDs. Readers can draw their own conclusions from the objective evidence:

On April 16th, a (real) client of mine posted a genuine review of my services, here: https://essayscam.org/forum/es/experience-nycfreelancewriter-6683/

That post included some pricing information about the project that Admin removed, at my request. Apparently, that (real) client's positive review of my services provoked UKLawEssays to initiate an all-out attack, accusing me of having used a phony ID to author a fake testimonial. That attack featured various negative comments about my website, the fact that I prefer not to publicize a pricing chart, or a phone #, along with pejorative comments about my having worked as a US Federal Government writer, my grammar, and about what he characterized as my "self-publicity machine," coincidentally, all favorite characterizations of someone who also used to initiate totally unprovoked vicious attacks against me years ago, under the IDs RustyIronChains and Editor75. He also accused Noted and me of being the same person using two IDs and accused me of trying to "pass myself off" as the individual whose (very obvious) stock photo appears on my website, along with all of the other (equally-obvious) stock photos:

putting that image directly by your bio infers [sic]* that the person is you. You could have chosen another image whereby you couldn't have been passing yourself off as that person.

*[The word you're looking for here is implied, not "inferred," Mr. Grammarian. Writers and speakers imply; only readers and listeners ever "infer."]

That attack prompted Noted to say the following in Posts #15 & 17, respectively:

He is just filled with rage and jealousy for you at this point. He is just looking to start and prolong senseless arguments. Something that I choose to believe is beneath you and I.

Then there is a high likelihood that he was also the person who started attacking you in the chat section.

Then, "OrchidGoblin" chimes in with equally nasty unprovoked attacks, also commenting pejoratively about my having worked for the government and refers to my posts as "hacky" "run-on" "drivel," all favorite lines of attack from RustyIronChains and Editor75, years ago, before both of those IDs were banned.

In Post #15 of this thread, Editor75 admits, both, to having been a "fraudster" (his own words) and to being the same person as RustyIronChains: https://essayscam.org/forum/ot/editor-pathetic-idiot-5123/

I was a fraudster for about six months in an industry unrelated to essays.

My Rustyironchains SN was banned for incessantly trolling WB while adding nothing else to the forum.

In Post # 24 of this thread, OrchidGoblin introduces himself as "Ed75":
https://essayscam.org/forum/es/genuine-companies-outsource-esl-writers-personal-473/#msg85600

Ed75 here. Here's what's up:

LawEssaysUK was suspended on May 16, 2022 and last posted on that same date. Here's the profile info: https://essayscam.org/forum/index.php?action=userinfo&user=8520

Then, on the exact same day that LawEssaysUK was banned, a brand new member, EssayScrutiny, registered and immediately complained about posters being banned for "pointing out bullies [sic] shortcomings" as that new identity's very first and only post before also getting suspended. The link to that thread is here: https://essayscam.org/forum/ot/random-discussion-5233/36/#msg85773

The link to EssayScrutiny's profile, created on the same day that UKLawEssays got suspended, is right here: https://essayscam.org/forum/index.php?action=userinfo&user=13668

Then, exactly one day later, "Jeannie" showed up, on May 17th, and in her very first post on (supposedly) a brand new forum for "Jeannie," "she" proceeded immediately to this thread here, to pick right up where both OrchidGoblin and UKLawEssays had both been obsessing about my website, my writing ability, and my phone #. Here's "Jeanie's" profile displaying "her" join date of May 17, 2022; and here's "her" first post (supposedly) on a brand new forum for "her" attacking me about my phone # not being displayed on my website, in the same thread where both UKLawEssays and OrchidGoblin had been tag-teaming me about the exact same issues right before those IDs were both banned.

Jeannie's ID was also banned, on June 9th. Then, five days after Jeannie's ban, another new ID ("a1writer") pops up on June 14th, and immediately starts making obvious insulting references to me:

https://essayscam.org/forum/index.php?action=userinfo&user=13671

@FreelanceWriter I would never recommend a student orders an essay from a Jack of all trades master of none, freelance writer.

https://essayscam.org/forum/index.php?action=userposts&user=13696&page=2

It is ridiculous for a writer with a degree in Ancient History to write essays on Dentistry.

https://essayscam.org/forum/wc/takes-lot-competent-writer-3261/#msg86043

Incidentally, that Dental client just left the following review on my Review thread a few days ago, in connection with the project referenced by a1writer in one of his very first posts 5 days after Jeannie's ID was suspended:

Thank you so much for all of your effort on this. ... I am very happy to have found you on the forum. ... I hope you don't plan on retiring any time soon as I am your latest very happy repeat customer!

[The full quote is viewable on my Review thread; it had to be edited for length to be quoted here.]

https://essayscam.org/freelance-writers/FreelanceWriter/

Finally, I'd also suggest that readers review and come to your own conclusions about the profile and posting history of all of the following now-suspended/banned IDs: cruciandiem, mitsubishipier, writerUK, essayscrutiny, masonaid, greencarpet, maltedbickle, grammartarian, ninjawarrior, and wildsquirrel.

Wrong again! You're lucky free email addresses are so easy to come by. Otherwise, you might crawl into your own navel and get lost.

Here's a clue: I'm Ed75, aka RIC. Also, masonaid et al. (you'll notice a theme in those names, assuming you don't have paranoid, delusional tunnel vision). I'm not this UK dude-- he calls you "blinkered" or "blindered" or something. Similar idioms, different sides of the pond.

Do you really think your obtuse schtick doesn't stink on both sides of said pond? Correlation is not causation, counselor.

As your punishment for ******* things up constantly, you can go write term papers for the rest of your miserable life, and never see the grades.

Now, as they say in jolly old England, "**** off, you ****!" Stop bringing me up.

@spacemic

Thanks for clarifying that despite FW's endless nauseous claims that anyone who criticises him is the same person going back donkey's year is a pathetic lie and goes to his honesty and credibility.

Np! If it weren't so funny, it would be tragic.
