Four months after submission, one article was accepted and one was rejected. The academic editor who rejected the manuscript was a Japanese scholar and his/her comments can’t be simpler. He questioned the binding site was wrong which was predicted by a software but not me. And the later results confirmed this prediction result. This rejection reason really made me sick!

I would like to strongly complain. I submitted the manuscript in February, under review lasted 3 months without any news. The reminder was replied that during the special period, the speed was so slow. Another month later, the manuscript was rejected in early July. It was still rejected by the editor. There were no review comments at all. Do you have to consider rejection for half a year? I totally suspect that the article was not sent for review at all. One article took 5 months, and I am also speechless. Contributors, wish you good luck.

An annoying journal, a waste of my time! There were three reviewers who raised comments, two of them accepted it after minor revision, and the other one rejected it after major revision. The reviewers were of low levels. There were a lot of English grammatical errors in the comments raised, in reverse, he pointed out the language problems of the polished article. The opinions given were not professional, and they were basically incomprehensible. The impact factor is decreasing year by year, and it can be said a valueless journal. The quality of the articles is not bad. Be careful to submit, there are a lot of tricks.

Just got accepted the day before yesterday. Submitted in 2016.06; 2 months in the first review, so we got the comments for major revision in August; and then in September, 2 weeks after resubmission, we got the comments of a minor revision. But then the editor was replaced, and the new editor repeatedly asked us about the results and methods, and also pointed out that there were similar articles. We had to go back and forth with the editor a lot to explain. 2017.01.12 finally accepted. Since I already have a paper published and this journal has a publication fee, so I wasn’t eager to get it published. If you need a paper published soon, better not submit it here. Well, maybe if you have a paper much better than mine, it would be accepted sooner.

Hello, is the current journal still considered as a SCI journal during the warning period?

Review speed: 3.0 | Submission success rate: 95.0 Experience sharing: The impact factor for the year 2023 is 2.3, but the journal was recently removed, so the risk is still high.
