So here it goes people:
I'm a writer who is currently under the employ of some non-American essay writing companies who lie about where they get their writers. The websites where my mother company supposedly gets its orders from claim that they only hire Americans. This is a lie because I'm not American and have in fact never been to America. I am an established university professor from a third world country which I would rather not mention since my line of work is not very shall we say "appropriate" considering my day job. So far, I have done close to 700 projects including PowerPoint presentations, resumes, statistical researches, and the like mostly for American and European students. I have not had any complaints from approximately 94% of that total and the complaints that I've had have rarely been valid (but of course, I also make mistakes at times).
Here's the gist as to why I made this thread. WritersBeware, one of the older people on this board has been claiming time and time again that I am a crook because I work for the companies that I described. I'd like to ask the people of this forum whether or not they agree. That is all. Thanks. ^_^

Hi
Do you also work at writers.ph? Actually, I also have a good ratings in that firm, and so far, I believe they do pay their writers, although sometimes it really gets delayed but they do pay. Are you working in their firm or at least had the experience?

@EW: If you're a crook, then, so am I since I knowingly write every now and then for a non-American essay writing company that claims it is only hiring native speakers. Don't worry about it. There are bigger crimes in the world.
Anyway, I'm a managing editor of an American publication. Surprise, surprise. I wonder if our subscribers know that Asians write and edit what they're reading everyday. ",) Now, does it make my American publisher a crook?

Quoting: margie Now, does it make my American publisher a crook?
If your American publisher OPENLY ADVERTISES that all of its editors are native English-speaking Americans, the answer is a resounding "Yes." However, I doubt that's the case, and you are comparing apples to oranges. Quite frankly, I think you know better.

Just wanted to clear the issue up here once and for all. Thank you for your input. :D Any other takers?
