It was a privilege since I had yet to be accepted as an editor. Seeing as you noticed I posted prior to the changes that have just recently happened, I would assume saying what you did would have been unnecessary. I do understand where you're coming from though, and respect your thoughts as well.

No, no...I totally understand how you felt. I was excited to be made an editor, too. But that's because I actually like proofreading, and wanted to see more readable reviews, even though normally people who do this work as employees get paid much more, and in cash.

I sure won't be editing a single word now that the new changes are implemented. What a waste of time all the few past weeks of editing have been. Complete rip off from a dishonest company.

Agreed. What a joke. And they don't stop you from taking more than 2, so I end up editing an extra review for no compensation because they didn't announce the new limit.

Send it back with comments that sentence structure and grammar both need work before it can be published. At least let them know what the problem is

This is exactly why I wanted to be an editor. I was approved and selected one review, then returned it to the author for a revision, and never heard back. And now My Tasks says that I never took any tasks, and my Task Market is completely empty. I don't know what happened
