I write for about 6 commercial websites and always notice orders that (probably) don't ever get taken only because of the way they're phrased. Orders that are extremely difficult or require obscure knowledge are one thing; but I'm talking about perfectly doable papers on fairly simple topics.
Unless your instructor specifically requires a citation style like Turabian or MLA, choosing styles other than APA only reduces the chances that writers who are already swamped with work will take them, simply because that requires more time and work. Same goes for asking for 6 or 8 references for a very short paper on a topic that really doesn't require more than a couple (if any). Requesting a specific number of quotes is also not helpful and only decreases the quality of your paper unless you've been instructed to include verbatim quotes. The worst are papers that are obviously supposed to be independent analyses or opinion pieces that specify unnecessary reliance on 5 or 6 sources. Also, don't try to "specify" your way into a 50% discount by asking for single spacing if the site says that all papers are double spaced.
By all means, always include as much specificity as your assignment requires, but if your instructor doesn't specify a citation style or a minimum # of references, or direct quotes, just let us do what's appropriate based on your topic and our professional experience. It could make the difference between getting a great paper on time or getting a notice that your paper was never taken and you're getting a refund on your next cc billing cycle, especially this time of year.

Some people post lengthy instructions exactly as they receive from their instructors. Writers tend to pick papers with short and specific instructions.

All I'm saying is don't add any more specificity than necessary. If the instructor says Turabian w/footnotes and 10 sources, you don't have a choice; if the instructor doesn't specify any citation style, your best bet is to pick APA and let the writer decide how many sources are necessary. Title is fine if it's clear what the essay is supposed to be about; I'm not saying to leave out details, just don't add rules for the writer that aren't necessary on your end. If your assignment is a choice of several topics, don't pick the topic either: let the writer have the entire assignment and pick the best topic unless you have some specific reason for choosing or eliminating any of them.

How's that, exactly? I have previously tried to explain how students sometimes place orders on essay sites in a way that tremendously increases the chance that those orders will just never get taken by writers and I've suggested ways of avoiding that problem. If anything in this thread constitutes "asking for" private business, why don't you explain what part I should have phrased differently to avoid that accusation.
If I didn't disclose that I write for companies, you'd accuse me of deception and complain that I must have some fraudulent reason for defending those about which I happen to have personal knowledge. I've openly admitted to writing for several reputable companies and I always defend them against accusations that I know just can't be true. When it comes to other sites, I always admit that I don't know anything about them because I don't and I've never said anything negative about any site that competes with any of those to which I have any connection.

Any chance of an example that a writer would like to see ? I am studying my MBA and have an exam in October this year, I am looking for someone to help / write the paper for me but due to this being an online course, it is delivered to us at 12am, and we then have only 24 hours to complete and submit the paper (4000 words to answer 4 questions) so I really will need the paper to be taken straight away ! any tips would be most welcomed, email me if you like, and thanks a bunch.

I don't like seeing a very detailed outline and/or notes telling me exactly what to write.
if you know so much about what the paper should say, ffs, say it.
also, those orders that just say, "see attached file," and you look, and there's no file-- hopeless!

Hi Freelancewriter,
can you explain a little more regarding the what's the best way to request a specific writer for a paper (more specifically on essaytown)
I was looking at ET website but there's no way of knowing writer's profile and area of expertise...

I was going to say the same ting...took the words out of my fingers, rusty. You're already being lazy enough not to do your own work; at least take a minute or two to type out what you want done (or copy and paste).

Almost no essay site allows you to see writers' information. Essaybay is an exception, but the writers there can say anything they want about themselves, so it's just as worthless.
The trick is to find a writer you like through trial and error (sorry, that's the only way), and then to keep requesting them. If one of your orders is on a subject that writer really can't handle, they'll usually let you now.

Also, if your order requires the use of a specific book that is not available online, try to upload some notes or even chapters from it. Many writers have access to libraries, which may or may not have the book you need, but no one is going to go out and buy a book to write your paper for you, few will travel to the library and search for the book (unless the order is for many pages and therefore pays very well), and no one is going to read an entire book for a short paper--it simply isn't cost effective (or usually necessary, to be perfectly frank).

Freelance writer, I am interested in the writing services you offer. I am new here so I am not able to message you privately because I have not posted on the forums enough to give me access to the private message feature. I could give you my email or if you could message me yours so I can give you some more information on the paper I need help with. Thank you.

I saw your order before but it's gone, which means someone already took it. There's not really an automatic function to let you know whether or not the order's been taken by a writer, but I don't have a problem checking the board for any ET customers here who need me to see whether or not a paper is still on the board. To do that though, I always need the 6-digit order number starting with a "1" not the other invoice number. I can also use a keyword (like "Sarbane") that I can search for with the Ctrl + F function. If your order # starts with "A2" I can use that too, but not if starts with "A1". Anytime.

If someone asks about a different company, WritersBeware would shout at him/her that: recommendations are not allowed!
FreelanceWriter, like a cheap wanna-be lawyer, only 'admits' he writes for 'reputable companies'. Duh, the fact that you admit something which is not allowed is still violation of the forum rules!

FreelanceWriter: Again, explaining how things work at a company is not the same as recommending a company; I didn't recommend that anybody use any company and all I've ever said about ET on this forum is that it's a totally legitimate company that provides an honest service, which is 100% true.
OK, old man. Watch when I open a new thread and write:
MyEssayCompany.com is a totally legitimate essay service (thread title)
I do not recommend MyEssayCompany.com, but they have been serving customers around the world for 15 years and 99.8% of them are always satisfied. They beat their competition as far as the price and final product is concerned. This is all my experience and this thread is opened for information purposes only.
Let me explain how things work at MyEssayCompany.com. It's simple - we are cost efficient so we can charge our clients only a fraction of our competition and at the same time we hire the best writers in the world. All requests are answered by our customer service persons within 5 minutes. We provide free revision and unconditional refund. Our company has been mentioned in the world news media and on a number or respectable websites, including Facebook.
I write for them and I know they always pay on time, never had a problem with my payment. They do not impose any penalties on writers and their payout rates is one of the best in the industry.
Now I hope the world knows how MyEssayCompany.com works and if you need further explanation let me know and I'll clarify. But do not ask me for recommendations, these are not allowed!
----
Hopefully now you'll see you aren't fooling anyone by your 'explanations'. If you still don't get it, get a brain fix.

Funny, I'm gone for months and the forum is exactly the same.
FreelanceWriter is still out advertising his services (something he's been banned for in the past) by posting his background and subjects (there was zero reason to post all his writing areas). If you're this desperate to get more work, you're not as busy as you claim to be.
WB doesn't bother to point out that FreelanceWriter is recommending ET by calling it legit, despite accusing me and others of recommendations for doing exactly the same thing. Where is that holy indignation now? Oh that's right, it's about ET so it's OK.
Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.

Lavinia: there was zero reason to post all his writing areas
The forum member spontaneously inquired about requesting me on ET. Nobody advertised anything. I responded so that the customer would know what topics I handle because every time a customer requests me for topics I don't do I have to contact the administration and waste their time opening up the order to other writers and maybe also explaining to the customer later why the requested writer didn't provide the paper. My post was directed at anybody who already chose ET and/or me and not to anybody else still undecided about what company/writer to use.
As far as being busy goes, I don't care what you think and I'm never too busy to tell you to line up with Stupid4 to kiss my a$$.

FreelanceWriter: The forum member spontaneously inquired about requesting me on ET.
There is nothing in Biennist's post that said s/he wanted to request you on ET. Here is the post in its entirety.
biennist: Hi Freelancewriter, can you explain a little more regarding the what's the best way to request a specific writer for a paper (more specifically on essaytown) I was looking at ET website but there's no way of knowing writer's profile and area of expertise...
That's a general request about finding out writer quals and not remotely a request for your writing competencies.
You may be on OK writer, I don't know, but your reading comprehension blows.
But hey, if the readers are lucky, you'll get banned, again.

Seriously, I thought we were OK, considering that I tried to smooth things over with you numerous times. I guess you prefer conflict. Knock yourself out. I've actually cut back on my posting, trying to avoid useless confrontation as much as possible. I've also been trying to limit my responses to unprovoked attacks (like yours).
By the way, would you like me to quote the post(s) in which I specifically asked FreelanceWriter not to recommend ET?

WB, it's puzzling that, for this thread, you can be bothered to call Stu4 a criminal and you can accuse me of liking conflict, but you selectively choose to not point out FreelanceWriter's blatant advertising again. It can't be that you won't do it now b/c you have done it on another thread, you have no problem calling out others multiple times for doing the same thing (hence, stu4 getting called a criminal again, ad nauseum, by you).
How about this as an extension of an olive branch? Admit on this thread that FW's post breaks rule #9 and should get him banned again and I won't address you again on this thread. You've had a couple of chances to do it so far, on this thread, and chosen not to, so just do it now and eliminate my concern.
Fair enough?

I will acknowledge that FW's inclusion of areas of personal specialty is a violation, regardless of intention. However, it is absolutely not a violation to defend a person or entity against competitors' libelous attacks. If "Member A" (e.g., stu4) falsely claims that ET is fraudulent, "Member B" (e.g., FreelanceWriter) has every right to prove wrong that which he/she has direct knowledge is an intentionally false statement of fact for commercial gain.

WB, since you addressed me directly, I'll respond. But since you're the one who is choosing to defend FW, it sure looks like you are trying to draw out the conflict betweeen us and not me.
Look at post #19 in this thread. He clearly quoted Biennist and then posted his subject areas in the same post. There is no attempt to quote radicalrev, that's all you.
But really, is that your defense of FW? Do you want me and every other writer on this forum to start soliciting work as blatantly as FW has, on multiple occasions, and then give all writers the chance to post their quals?
That seems to me to be a pretty lousy direction for the forum.
Not to mention it's still breaking the rules of the forum, regardless of your attempt to defend him.
I will never understand why you continue to defend FW when he's a frequent and flagant rule-breaker on this forum.

I could have asked why you have decided to defend stu4, a proven criminal and fraudster from Ukraine. I didn't. You don't think that I could have instantly taken that inflammatory route? I don't have the energy for bullsh*t fights any more.

In Post #19, FW included his areas of specialty in a response to biennist. (I think that I made my position on that act quite clear. I'd hardly refer to my stance as a "defense.") In Post #21, radicalrev specifically requested that FW take an order that he/she (radicalrev) had already placed at ET. It is in relation to radicalrev that I believe FW posted his "The forum member spontaneously inquired about requesting me on ET" comment.
