The Perfect Definition for a Pro-Academic Writer

Unless he or she has exhibited, beyond reasonable doubts, the following professional traits,an individual is not certified as a Professional academic writer. A pro-academic writer is:

-A rigorously trained academic scholar with at least a degree or diploma in specific field of study.
-A vastly experienced master of law and ethics in the writing profession i.e. understands legal implications of plagiarism and copyright infringement
-An expert in using all sorts of citation styles and formarts
-An expert in conducting research
-Highly proficient in the written and spoken English
-Self-driven and independent minded
-Above average time management skills

Any persons that certify this accreditation criterion is a potential candidate for the profession of academic writing. For the purpose of making this definition more logical and by all means tolerable in the academic writing fraternity, dissenting but very constructive opinions are welcome.

There is nothing like a 'Pro-Acdemic Writer'. There are two types of writers, a) Honest and qualified writers who DO NOT engage in the fraudulent business of helping students cheat the universities and b) dishonest and (dis)qualified writers who purposefully engage in helping students defeat the whole essence of education.



Having defeated your argument from the onset, i don't need to engage in further discussions pertaining to definition of a pro academic writer

First and foremost, begin by learning how to use quotation marks correctly. Secondly, I would like to bring it to your attention that whether you hate it or otherwise, academic writing has become a profession, and very learned people are earning a living out of it. Please change your mindset about this fact.Thirdly,I do not see any aspect of "cheating the system" if the system can no longer function properly without academic writers.You are badly lagging behind serious facts, dear Queen.Lastly,because I already knew there was no such thing as "pro-academic writer," I just came up with the idea, how about that?

Thank you, Shakespeare wannabe


It doesn't matter whether it has become a 'profession' or not; the fact is- it is wrong HELP students cheat through the universities. 'Very learned people' as you put it are up there in the corporate ladder, not roaming writing sites scavenging for desperate and ill intentioned students.


No. Universities can function PERFECTLY well without students who shouldn't be in the university in the first place. If you cannot produce a decent essay, you have no business being at the university.

i am not lagging behind anything. it is you and co. who cannot see the intellectual damage you inflict


You sound corny.

It does queen,it does matter a lot to the writing companies.


What you do not understand is the fact that some of those "very learned people," had their PhD theses written by professional academic writers. It is not wrong or immoral for a student to seek help from the experts.This does not, in any way, make them dunderheads or unworthy to be in the institution of higher learning. Moreover,students have varied genuine reasons for seeking help in writing. Here are a few of them:

-Some are very bright but with a major weakness in English
-Some are extremely preoccupied in other academic related tasks and have no sufficient time to beat certain crucial deadlines
-Some just need the input of a second or third party to help accomplish their academic projects based on diverse ideas
-Some simply need assistance with research work
-Some seek help because of very logical personal issues i.e. sickness

What matters is that students complete their coursework, graduate, land themselves great jobs, and be able to deliver quality.They know pretty well what they are doing, aren't they?

It's like watching monkeys through feces at each other...

What happened pheeleaks? Is everything OK?


throw

You're right. That was a very silly mistake. It only took you about two months to catch me in a slip=up, too. You must be very proud.

Retard, you have began it again.......
Syphilis before you try to comment ABOUT anything, can you refund all monies you have obtained from students through pretending you'd deliver good papers only to deliver garbage.

Queenie, before you comment about anything, do you feel like being honest about your involvement in the industry?

Um, you may want to avoid remedial mistakes when referring to someone else as a "retard."

Finally, you admitted I was right. Btw, I have pointed out mistakes in your writing before, but you have been so ignorant that you do not accept this. I am not proud, but sorry that you have earned your so-called degree in English and still you are confused in using confusing words. I think you scammed your proofreader/editor by not paying him/her for pointing out and correcting mistakes in your posts. :D

Pheelyks, why have you turned our healthy conversation into an insults forum !?

Finally, you said something that was right.


Saying, "your writing sucks" isn't pointing out mistakes.

WritersBware: expectedly you have come to the aid of your subservient flunkey.
Does he reward you in any way?..............perhaps some ****** favours?

Do you really think that anyone believes your silly claim that you are a professor?

The resident psychopath isn't, so why should queen sheba?

I was responding directly to a question queenie asked of me. Before grasping at excuses to start in with WB, why not try doing a bit of reading for context?

look, i have no problem addressing issues in a civilised manner AND indeed i was very polite when i first joined this forum.
However, i have no problems resorting to dirty language if that is what you can understand.
I don't need to convince anyone i am a senior lecturer (not professor) . In fact lets put it this way: i am a high school dropout

That's a load of garbage. You joined on Januray 29, 2012, at 10:37 AM. Your FIRST POST was a an unsolicited, unprovoked, long-winded, dishonest, deceptive, lie-infested, already-defeated attack against me, you ignorant piece of trash.


You can't even keep your own lies straight:


They allow "lecturers" like you-below the level of assistant professors-to teach classes at private universities? I sure as hell hope that the students are paying JC rates, at best.

WB please forgive her, she didn't know what she was talking about. I am ashamed to be associated with Queen. In Kenya, where I hail from (unfortunately), we do not accommodate such low profiled lecturers, talk less of a senior one or a professor.

How do you write, if you cannot read? You may go through the posts again. I pointed out mistakes with your "conditional sentence" and another sentence in which you were referring to "a" writer by calling him/her "they".


from How to initiate the process of being an essay writer?



from I wrote a paper for a client. How to get paid?

These are grammatical mistakes by a writer having degree in English!

The solution for "they" can be:


from WRITERS PLEASE BEWARE OF ALERTPAY

No, they aren't. The first case isn't incorrect at all, and the second is a matter of changing usage; while "they" is not considered acceptable as a gender-neutral pronoun by textbooks and some academics, this usage is growing in popularity and in justification. Using it when referring to a specific, identified individual in the sentence I corrected is silly, though.

Once again, making invalid claims isn't the same thing as pointing out actual mistakes.

You are wrong, illiterate writer.

NEWSFLASH: "Were" is correct, you fu**-n idiot, because he is referring to a possible/hypothetical event, not one that actually occurred.

Earth to idiotic cretins. If "were" was correct, the next sentence should have been in past tense. For instance, "if that were correct, I would be still one up on him", because he was referring to a situation in past. The result could be present, if he was drawing a conclusion with his statement.

How can it be that you haven't studied grammar? "Uneducated buffoon", WildBoar! Now go fu*- off.

And regarding the use of "they", "the one" should be used in the sentence, if not "he/she".

LMAO x3!

1. You made the exact same mistake AGAIN by using "was." You are referring to a HYPOTHETICAL situation, you uneducated nitwit.

2. In a subjunctive situation, the secondary sentence has no bearing whatsoever on the first sentence.

3. The "would be still one up on him" text in your "example" follow-up sentence is NOT past tense.

However, your use of "would" is proper because you are referring to a hypothetical event that is attached to the subjunctive "were."

Do yourself a favor by studying the subjunctive.

This, my friends, is why uneducated, unqualified, ESL writers continue to damage the research industry.

"Was" can also be used, and if you can understand, please consider the use of "should have been".

I know what subjunctive mood is.


This is what I wanted to highlight. This industry needs proper use of English grammar, certainly not the one your goat, pheeleaks uses.


Tell this to your goat pheeleaks by replacing "ESL writers" by "pheeleaks".

You could use "was," "flapjack," or "banjo"-they'd all be wrong.

"Note: the verb to be can be specific in the if clause.
If I were rich, I wouldn't work. If he were younger, he would marry her.
(But was is also possible: If I was rich, I wouldn't work. If he was younger, he would marry her.)
But: If I were you, I wouldn't do it. (In this expression, were is much more usual than was.)"
from: e-grammar.org/if-clauses/

I really wish you could attend grammar classes. Two "uneducated buffoons", WildBoar and pheeleaks!
If you don't agree, just go to hell, you idiots!

Your source says I was correct to use "were." So basically, I was right and you were wrong. Thanks for playing.

You are an idiot. Really. You can't understand logical arguments, and I can't help it! Lol!

You haven't made one yet.

Instead of continuing to mock me when anyone reading this can clearly see you're a moron, do you want to take a second to explain how you think you're being logical here?

You haven't got any.


I have far better things to do than to engage in a debate with an illiterate monkey. Lol!

Basically, you know you're beaten, but you're just going to pretend you're not.

A quick recap for anyone who's interested:

-I began a sentence, "Even if that were true..."
-amadweeb insisted "were" was incorrect and should have been "was"
-I ask amadweeb to cite a source backing up his claim
-amadweeb posts a source quite clearly saying "were" is preferred in many cases but that either word is correct
-amadweeb pretends he proved his point when in fact his own source defeats his argument
-I am left astounded by the willful ignorance of this assh*le

You are wrong, again.


Wrong, you illiterate monkey. Go read the posts again. LMAO!
I bet you will not understand the topic even if you read the posts hundred times. Let WildBoar herd you! Hahahahahaha

I am making it easy for you.



Illiterate monkey, pheeleaks! I wish you were a human! LMAO!

If you're still hung up on the non-existent past tense issue, your own source yet again demonstrates your idiocy. Thinking that the clause, "I would be still one up on him:" is correct reaffirms this once more.

"Were" is not past tense in context, just as "was" would not be past tense. You're an idiot. All of these are simple facts verified by your own posts.

You did not use "would be" in your original post, cretin.
Would is the past tense of will, idiots! LMAO!
And this conditional sentence had been used for referring to a situation in past!
What is verified here is that you two, WildBoar and pheeLeaks are "uneducated buffoons" of this forum! Period

I can't continue my English lectures for you two. I would charge you cretins for that service from now onward. If you don't pay, you two will remain ignorant fools. LMAO!

Don't over-complicate things. An academic writer is somebody who has graduated from (at least) college and can write proficiently in English ( UK or US). They are writers who know how to do research and understand that research for the benefit of the student. It isn't rocket science. You cannot even go to school for specific academic writing training as a profession because, it is something you should have been doing your whole academic life, thus preparing you for this occupation upon your graduation from any college course.

The last time I checked, there was no certification giving body for this occupation. There are no training materials provided nor courses we can take to prove we are trained academic writers. Our own claim of expertise will rely on our academic background and the fact that we had to write hundreds of papers during our time as college/masteral students. That is the only training we were provided if one thinks about it in hindsight. Real time application of writing and research skills.

It is improper to imply that academic writers need to have specific skills to be "certified" because these are skills that are developed during your time as a student. The only certification we have is our college degree. Do not imply that actual training is involved in this job because that is not true.
