Can someone explain, is using any of these essay companies for class work academic cheating, or not? There's so many companies. Pu-leaze, dumb it up for me; somebody you paid is doing your assignment for you to get the grade - how can it NOT be cheating? Do colleges allow it officially?

You could have found A LOT OF info regarding this issue on this very forum. But the fact is you don't bother to spend time in some simple research.

Ok, where? I did a search on 'cheating' and it turns up only 5 hits, none of which answer the q.

Sounds like a painfully long peeing contest between a questioner and a couple of sharky unscrupulous writers defending their lair; one of them couldn't even spell Felix. Don't see an answer to my question of whether colleges consider it legit, so I'm thinking it probably aint.
good of you to reply with the link, thanx.

Good thing I wasn't trying to spell "Felix." I was trying to spell "pheelyks," and I'm pretty sure I succeeded...

quondamphone: peeing contest
I think if you had seriously read through the posts, you would've found the answer to your question because the argument (though heated) does provide very useful information regarding the writing services provided by us.

some people like to pretend that they're doing something good and useful by operating in this industry... when you start out with that kind of deluded thinking, it's a slippery slope, at the bottom of which you'll find most of the regulars of this forum.
"lair" is right.

...whereas others have ideas about getting more money out of the industry, then rail against people that critique their ideas, then decide that the entire industry is no good.

I think that the scummy nature of the industry is actually something that contributes to writers being systematically mistreated and underpaid. I have never changed my position on the nature of the industry in general. nor do I rail against those who critique my ideas, as long as they have something to bring to the table, other than lies and insults.

Things like, "I make more money than I would as a staff writer in any other industry," and, "I'm happy with what I earn so long as I am treated fairly"?

not to beat a dead horse, but I have the feeling that your self-satisfaction is both atypical and somewhat deluded. your use of absolutes also suggests that you haven't really tried your writing out successfully in any other, less scummy industries. you also apparently haven't considered that most of these alternative industries have vastly superior opportunities for advancement.

I have, and am well aware that selling a single screenplay, producing a popular paperback novel, and a number of other creative pursuits could potentially have a much higher payoff. I make more than average journalists, copywriters, technical writers, and webcopy writers according to published statistics, and I make vastly more from my writing than do most people trying to sell screenplays/novels/etc. This job is also nice in that it does not preclude other endeavors, meaning I can write my novels and screenplays while actually earning a decent living.
editor75: you also apparently haven't considered that most of these alternative industries have vastly superior opportunities for advancement.
Sure I have. As I acknowledged when you first showed up, there are some definite downsides to being a freelancer, including the fact that I need to obtain my won health insurance and plan for my own future. Fortunately, I have a good enough head on my shoulders to have taken care of both of these fronts, and am very much upwardly mobile.

Again, I replied to your criticisms with rational, well-founded and full explanations, and this is all you can say in return? Stop pretending you were ever here to have a rational discussion.

pheelyks, yet again bragging about how much money he makes, and then patting himself on the back for being logical... and yet, at the same time, he seems to dream of fame and fortune with something on which his name appears. weren't you giving some newbie a hard time about this recently, pheelyks? so what do you tell the neighbors when they ask what you do for a living?

You brought the issue up, yet my responding to it is bragging?
editor75: he seems to dream of fame and fortune with something on which his name appears.
You're reading far too much into things and jumping to conclusions again.
editor75: weren't you giving some newbie a hard time about this recently, pheelyks?
No, I wasn't. Thanks for asking.
editor75: so what do you tell the neighbors when they ask what you do for a living?
I explain exactly what I do. What do you do for a living, Buford?
