you should understand that while you use language so carelessly, you don't deserve to object to how someone else uses a language. Simple. This is why I passed the comment above.
To get a detailed response, you might want to read my reply to HEREMEOUT's impassioned plea.

Kay, then maybe you should refrain from calling my English 'horrible' when your own writing is hardly nice to look at. ^_^ That's called being hypocritical.
MeoKhan: you should understand that while you use language so carelessly, you don't deserve to object to how someone else uses a language. Simple.
You make it out to be such a terrible thing, and yet you do the exact same thing yourself when you're feeling butthurt from a comment that wasn't even directed at you. :P Why don't you take your own advice?

That isn't what you said, hypocrite. :) You really don't like owning up to your mistakes, do you? O.o
In your last two comments you've been having a go at me, with my 'poor language skills,' for insulting others and their use of language.
MeoKhan: Your English is horrible. You should be ashamed of the fact that with the poor language skills you're shamelessly victimizing others.
Um, derp?
MeoKhan: while you use language so carelessly, you don't deserve to object to how someone else uses a language
Thing is, you're a writer in this whole essay business, and, let's face it, you're no Shakespeare. ^__^ So the fact that you are insulting my writing and condemning me for doing the same to others, while you freely pass judgement, is pretty damn hypocritical. In fact, you have even less of an excuse to be bad at it, because people actually pay you to write for them.
I have just as much right to post freely here as you do. I'm not making a ton of new threads for no reason, I'm not throwing around horribly abusive language unprovoked, and I'm not seriously obstructing your whole scam gig in any way so far. Not only that, but you're joining in with this pointless thread yourself right after complaining about wasting time.
MeoKhan: most of my posts I have tried to help people rather than write crap
MeoKhan: Lolz! Your indecency reminds me of a child in my neighborhood who always shouted at older guys and had to run away leaving his thing behind.
MeoKhan: You have serious reading disability.
MeoKhan: Don't hesitate to find medical care as your case is of high priority.
That is no better than what anyone else has been writing here. Seriously, feel free to join in, I have nothing against you as yet in particular, except for your insults and this hypocritical business. If you're going to join in with stuff like this, though, don't bother with all the holier-than-thou bullsh*t.

My point was: I did NOT specifically PICK OUT words, punctuation from your posts (as you did with others). I did also NOT pass any judgment for this reason. My purpose was only to show you the mirror.
This was stance and this really is. It doesn't make me a hypocrite. If you, however, think I am the one, you're free to have any opinions.
Inasmuch as your freedom of posting on this forum is concerned, you're absolutely on your own. Except the Mod, no one can stop you. However, if you're spending so much time in pointing out errors in others' posts, this is no use.
You should contribute to the major focus of this forum - SCAM.

^___^ Oh, right, because all your posts are helpful and focused:
MeoKhan: Lolz! I see the fight is getting rough. No blood please.
Look in the mirror yourself. :P
MeoKhan: I did NOT specifically PICK OUT words, punctuation from your posts (as you did with others). I did also NOT pass any judgment for this reason.
I think you'll find that making an absolute judgement about someone's writing, regardless of the amount of depth you go into, counts as passing judgement. You're just changing the rules to suit yourself. It would be funny to see you try to find real errors in people's writing though; with any dumb luck, you might stumble upon a few. ^_^
Sigh. It's clear we'll have to agree to disagree on this one. I wouldn't want to distract you from a heated debate with Rusty -- I mean, editor75. :P It's all good. You think my English sucks; I think you're being a bit of a moralfag. We both think that the other one is being a hypocrite. That probably isn't going to change in the next few posts, so I guess we should just do what you said and move on.

"Why every writing company needs a Kenyan Writer"
In theory, I suppose the statements made in this thread make sense...
In reality however, it really doesn't work like that.
I've spent a lot of time 'vetting' writing applicants for the company I used to work for - I've been out of the game for over a year now, but my experience still holds water.
Out of all the applications I've been through, I can think of no more than 5 or 6 writers whose writing lead me to believe they were native English speakers, who it then turned out were ESL writers.
It's all about the details - the subtle nuances in the language that you only pick up by using English with other natives on a daily basis, the sentence structures that just don't 'feel' right.
That said, I've also seen applicants who are native English speakers who wrote junk as well!
Ultimately yes, the question is not 'Are you an ESL writer?', rather 'Can you write native-standard English?'.
Unfortunately, for 99% of ESL writers, the answer is 'No'.

Heremeout, you're useless. Whatever bickering might have been occurring, at least MeoKhan and itsme used some actual logic and information in their posts. You add nothing here, and it's almost like you're proud of that.

Your talk makes a lot of sense. However, it is also equally important to note that many a company in the essay writing industry is fooling their customers as most of their writers are from an ESL/EFL background.
Someone who believes in him/herself doesn't really need to lie to anyone or hide anything about their skills or background.

This comment of yours simply means you want attention on this forum. We're here to discuss scam. For a long time people like you have joined this forum only to waste our time. Shame on you.
