IEEE SIGNAL PROCESSING LETTERS

The first review did not pass the editorial pre-screening, and then it was modified and resubmitted.
The second review took more than two months. One reviewer directly accepted the current format, while another reviewer deliberately found faults. It was obvious that they were irresponsible reviewers who didn't even bother to read it. They were probably teachers who had students review it, and they just copied and pasted some review template sentences from the internet. It's really frustrating, and what's even more infuriating is that their opinions were completely opposite to the reviewer who accepted it directly! Although there were many comparative experiments with the new algorithm, they only mentioned one sentence, saying that there were no comparative experiments, and the editor accepted that sentence...
Then I sent a rebuttal to the editor, but they didn't reply. I sent it to the journal's assistant editor, but they didn't reply either.
After making revisions, I carefully wrote a cover letter and rebuttal, and then submitted it. However, the assistant editor replied that this manuscript had already gone through the second round and I should withdraw it, as a third submission was not allowed...
But I only went through one external review, doesn't the first pre-screening count?
I didn't give up and explained the situation in the cover letter, and submitted it again... But the editorial department took a long time to process it, and it kept showing "submitted". After a month and a half, it was withdrawn again... I can only say that I'm really unlucky... The processing speed and luck are completely different from what others have mentioned in the comments...
I'm speechless... Sob, sob, sob. It hurts.

The first review did not pass the editorial pre-review, so it was modified and resubmitted. The second review took over two months, one reviewer accepted the current format directly, while the other intentionally found faults. It was obvious that the second reviewer was irresponsible and didn't even read the paper properly. It seems like the reviewer was a student given the task by their teacher, as they used some template sentences found online. What's even more frustrating is that their opinion was completely opposite to that of the reviewer who accepted the paper. Although there were many comparative experiments with the new algorithm, they only mentioned the lack of such experiments and the editor adopted their opinion...
After that, a rebuttal was sent to the editor, but there was no reply. It was also sent to the journal's assistant editor, but still no reply. After making the revisions, a cover letter and rebuttal were carefully written and submitted. However, the assistant editor replied that this was the second time the manuscript had been submitted, so it was being withdrawn and not allowed for a third submission...
But there was only one external review, shouldn't the first pre-review count?
I didn't give up and explained the situation in the cover letter, and submitted it again... But the editorial department took a long time to process it, and it kept showing as "submitted". After a month and a half, it was withdrawn once again... I can only say, I'm really unlucky... The processing speed and luck are completely different from what other comments have mentioned...
I'm just speechless...
