Ok I posted at least three essays on various threads a while ago, and still no one had critiqued them. What is up? If the moderators are too busy to critique essays they shouldn't get everyone all excited by saying they will critique essyas and people them spend time posting them when in reality the essays never get critiqued. Was it wrong for me to assume that when someone posts that they will critique an essay that they will actually do it within at least a month?

I apologize ABTBluebird. At the time posted, I personaly had plenty of free time. I suddenely had alot going on in my life. Alot of personal matters that I'd rather not get into. I know that pianogirl has also be very busy.

Please also note, we moderators are volunteering for this postion. This is in addition to our "real lives." We give up a lot of our time to help the members here in anyway possible. For example, next week I have 3 midterms, a possible 10 to 15 page paper (profesor is still iffy on it), 3 tv shows with a total of 4, 8 hour shoots for one of them and a additional shoot that will last a minimum of 12 hours. There is a whole lot more, but you start to get the jist of it.

It's ok. I guess I can wait. The exam isn't until May anyway.

Good luck with your busy schedule!

I hate the idea of writing more essays than I need to but I realize I do need a lot of improvement.

I'm in. I'm not sure I have the time to critique every essay but I'll do my best.

One more thing...

I apologize as well. What and I have had a busy schedule lately, I'm sure we can vouch for each other. But I have critiqued two of your essays and shall be posting my thoughts momentarily when I get there.

And yes Effervescent, that's where the questions are posted.
