Dec 28, 2022 at 15:09 comment added Allure @BryanKrause You have said "I am suggesting that their hyper-accelerated review schedule is intended to get money in their pockets quickly with little care for quality", but you have not been able to suggest a mechanism whereby hyper-accelerated review results in "little care for quality". You could say it's strawman, I suppose - but it's what you've written.
Dec 28, 2022 at 14:52 comment added Bryan Krause @Allure I don't understand why you keep inventing straw man arguments that I have supposedly made, and I assure you that this argument style does not inspire confidence.
Dec 28, 2022 at 14:24 comment added Allure @BryanKrause are you suggesting MDPI are able to control what their reviewers write? Because I am not seeing a mechanism which links a journal's average review time with quality. Conversely, if taking longer implies higher quality, all journals would just sit on their hands for a few months before starting review.
Dec 28, 2022 at 14:02 comment added Bryan Krause @Allure No, I am suggesting that their hyper-accelerated review schedule is intended to get money in their pockets quickly with little care for quality.
Dec 28, 2022 at 14:00 comment added Allure @BryanKrause Are you suggesting MDPI write their own reviews and fake them as written by actual reviewers?
Dec 28, 2022 at 13:52 comment added Bryan Krause @Allure Indeed, and from what I can tell that hyper-accelerated schedule is all about getting money in their pocket with little care for quality.
Dec 28, 2022 at 13:03 comment added Allure @BryanKrause there are people/cultures in the world that don't celebrate Christmas. This also sounds like an MDPI journal, i.e. runs on a hyper-accelerated schedule.

Dec 27, 2022 at 15:23 comment added Bryan Krause @Snijderfrey The issue is less about the 7 day time limit (which is in fact short), but about the unlikelihood that a paper submitted last week would already be reviewed properly by now.
Dec 27, 2022 at 15:22 comment added Azor Ahai -him- @Snijderfrey I meant the interval between submission and Dec. 23 reply, not the 7-day deadline
Dec 27, 2022 at 15:22 comment added Snijderfrey The answers here might help you: Request an extension of revision deadline over the holidays or Asking for extension in submission of revision

Dec 27, 2022 at 14:52 comment added Azor Ahai -him- You received a review in less than a week, at Christmastime? Are you sure this is a legitimate journal? Although I suppose why would they bother with revisions?
