Verified Reviews
I submitted a review article on August 23, 2021, and received the review results on September 14 of the same year. The review process took only three weeks and twenty days, which is actually quite good in terms of review speed.
There was a delay in the publication materials because I didn't have time to check the editing emails. The editor sent me a second email as a reminder, which shows their responsibility and enthusiasm.
There were also some issues during the submission process, but they did not affect the submission results. The problem occurred during the proofreading stage when I had already submitted the proof, but later received an email reminding me to submit it again. After I emailed the editor, they explained the possible system issue of the foreign publishing company and assured me that the reminder email can be ignored as it will not affect the submission results.
Overall, I think the comments section may indeed be too aggressive. In my submission process, I did cause some trouble for the editor due to incomplete materials, but they patiently and seriously replied to my emails.
