Hey guys!
I'm new to writing papers for profit, so I thought maybe you all could just give me a few heads up. I tried searching this forum but there's so many mixed feeling I thought I should just start my own thread.
Anyway, I just applied for CustomWritings.com or AcademicExperts.us....same guys apparently. After searching this forum, I have read some mixed opinions of some people getting paid and others not. So what is it, should I stay for a few weeks and see if they pay me or not or should I just drop them right now and move on?
Second, what are some actual good legitimate sites to work for that will pay(at least most of the time)? I'm not looking to make a lot or go full time here, I'm a student researcher at a university, I don't have all the time in the world..lol :)
Also, how much can I expect to make or rather-how long does it take to make a certain amount? So, let's say my goal is to make some spare bucks, 200 a week, that's all. So, I know you're all going to say, well, how fast you make money depends on how much you write and how good you are. So make an estimate for me, base it on this(haha)-I am a pretty good writer, at least I like to think so since I am an engineering major and I have several papers going through the publishing process.
Thanks in advance!

Stick to engineering. Improve your writing. And definitely improve your research skills--if you paid attention to the TOS of the forum as well as the countless threads containing similar questions, you would know that recommendations are not allowed, and that the companies you applied for are only praised by people who a) can't write a grammatically correct sentence and/or b) own/profit from these sites.

Well excuse me. All I want is a list, if you work for a company and they haven't scammed you then tell me. One way or another, all of those countless threads have heated discussions with one person claiming a site is good and another claiming it's bad-also, even though I applied for them it doesn't mean that every other site out there isn't just as bad.
Cheers!

p.s. I research high temperature composite matices, not endless threads of heated discussion. That's a waste of time, I want a straight answer. "So and so is good, I haven't been screwed" end of story, and "so and so scamed me countless times", etc...

I understand you consider basic research a waste of time, but again, READ THE TOS OF THIS FORUM. Recommendations are not allowed. The majority of companies out there will screw you. Don't work for them.

haha! Nice, well, alright. Will do.
But I've gotta ask, pheelyks, do you work for a writing site or sites? I don't care which, I just think it would make your last "Don't work for them" comment pretty funny.
Thanks though.

if you have a lot of essays, Academon is a good site to park them and get royalties.

So, we do all the work, and you think you can just make demands and break forum policy? Sorry. Bye.

Mod, how many times does Rusty get to spit in your face before you ban him? This is not a case of a newbie "not knowing" about the rules.

Strange researcher you are. You say you are good at research and then solemnly declare that some basic research is merely a waste of time. Hm....
On the other hand, there is a lot of controversy going on here (and you have spotted it I think): while some people say a company is good, other say it's a rip-off. To find an answer, you'd better start looking for alternative sources of information. Your research skills will for sure come handy in this case.
