There is a website out there claiming to be writing by pheelyks. I don't believe this is a TOS violation but can anyone confirm that it is actually a genuine site by that writer? There was talk on essaychat about it and that freelancewriter was a part of it. Not sure how much stock to put in that since later someone said there was no way it was legit. Thanks.
I can't send messages yet so this is why I cannot contact directly. I'm not a scammer or anything, just trying to get info.

I don't know whether to be flattered or pissed off--right now I'm definitely leaning far more towards the latter--but I am in no way, shape, or form attached to this website. Whatever scamming a$$h*les set this site up obviously can't get customers on their own, so I'd stay far, far away from it. There won't be anything I can do to get the site taken down, of course, as I have no legal claim to this name, but f*ck the bastards.

Thanks for clearing that up pheelyks. I sent in a quote request but glad I verified before I paid for anything.

Lean ALL the way toward the latter--someone's using your name and credibility to make money. That's the lowest of the low. My sympathies.

Someone's not making very much money (they charge about half of what I would be charging), and the only way customers would find the site is by coming here and deciding they wanted to order from me in the first place. I'll try and keep this thread at the top for awhile to dissuade people from using these scam bullshitters.
To restate: I am not associated with any website bearing ny username. These people are liars, plain and simple.

No way in hell did pheelyks make that site. Sorry, asshat.

Hey, mod, since the poster (Title: "Try Me Out") committed a crime by doing what he did, you are well within your rights to post his IP. How about it?

From what I've seen of pheelyks on this site, there's no chance in Hell he'd advertise his site in such a juvenile manner ("Try me out?" Really?). Hopefully no one will be tricked by this impostor... and hopefully karma will catch up with the site's creator.

Ok so who ever is running the pheelyks website claims to be the real pheelyks stating he/her (the real pheelyks) doesn't post on here anymore because of the lies and cheats. He/she claims someone else uses his/her name on here!!! Oh Lordy!
I think you... The real pheelyks would find the email an interesting read.

by all means, post the email here. I don't know of a way to prove that I'm the "real" pheelyks, but I've been using this nickname--with this spelling--for over a decade now. Anyone that has ever PMed me and received a reply email even knows my real name, because I'm not that careful about protecting it--I don't have anything to hide.
I feel like busting into some Slim Shady--is Eminem still cool?

Someone needs a course in Economics.. ever heard of Purchasing Power Parity, you ignorant fool. even if the website owner is charging $15/page, it will be worth lot more if the owner is from Asia...

I know quite well how the scam companies manage to operate from foreign countries, dipsh*t. I've been doing this longer than you )most likely) and am better at it, so calling me a fool is pretty ridiculous. My point was that the real pheelyks (i.e. me) charges a lot more than what they're charging. If they were better at cheating, they could be making a lot more.

Sorry Pheelyks but I wonder why someone would pick just YOUR nickname for an essay writing blog-like website?
There are other reputable writers on the forum as well... :-?

If others are making more money, they are cheaters.. what an argument. Anyway, I believe that you have created this website yourself to gain clients on this forum.

The prices on that site are substantially less than he already makes from company assignments. I know his private prices because we sometimes do work for one another's clients and there's no way that's his site, trust me. There'd be no point to taking on the hassle of doing our own customer service to take on cheaper work for the trouble when the companies handle all that stuff for us and pay us more than most of the prices listed on that site.
It's obviously some idiot here who's decided it might be clever to capitalize on the fact that Pheelyks has a good reputation on this forum, hoping that students doing a search for his forum S/N will stumble on that site and pay for services assuming that it's his site. Pretty sleazy move.

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. I'll start a website to customers from the forum, then come to the forum and trash the website claiming it's not even me. You might be retarded enough to think that's a good business move, but I'm not.

The fact that you create a website and trash it here makes me even more certain that it's you. You want to create an aura around yourself that you are so good that people want to take advantage of your name. F***ing loser..

Gee, I wonder who is behind the site . . . . Arsonists tend to hang around to watch the building burn and often insert themselves into the investigation.

Na! I dont believe that Pheelyks will do something like this. Why would he/she go through all the pain to set up and website then charge less that his standard rate? Doesent seem logical to be. I have it from another reputable writer that pheelyks is one of the decent person (meaning honest, can write a proper paper, ect) in this business.

Maybe you think this industry only contains liars and scam artists because that's the only way you know how to operate, but some of us are very up front about what we do and how we do it.

Yes, consider this scenario.. Your kid comes up to you "Daddy, let us go to picnic somewhere". You: "No son, I am writing homework for one of your friends." Quite honest, don't you think.
I joined this industry only as a temp as I could not find a job, now that I have a good job that pays well, I do not need to write papers for students.

I have a good job that pays well, too. Your claim of moral superiority because you only did this when you "had to" is a bogus argument, even if it were true. I am completely honest about what I do, and I really don't have a moral problem with it--you, apparently, did this job even though you found it morally reprehensible, and in other threads you make it quite clear that you are still trying to work as a writer in this industry. Yet somehow I'm the hypocrite?
Customers aren't supposed to use my products to cheat, for one thing. For another, most of the people that purchase essays through these companies really shouldn't be in college in the first place. The for-profit higher education system that exists throughout the world, including in public college and university systems, is a complete mess and an utter joke in terms of the quality of education delivered and the standard for admittance/graduation. The system has long been about rewarding those that can pay; I paid my dues, now I want my piece of the pie.

Really? That seems like a ridiculously-small target to aim for. If you're anti-hypocrite (and good for you for being so), why not attack politicians or businesses? Write for Politico or something like that.
