PLOS ONE is wasting my time. After 170 the academic Editor reject my paper because paper is not following guidelines of the journal. I am wondering if it is not following the guidelines why the accept it and sent it for reviewers who gave constractive comment?
Hi,
Observing PlosOne from a researcher's point of view, I recommend this journal. The papers I read in this journal are interesting and useful. I think you should check again your paper. The fact that it was sent to reviewers does not mean that the paper was accepted. Please check why, exactly, the paper was rejected, it could be the scope of the paper, or the style or the references that need improvement.
of course I expect the rejection , no Problem, I mean they took 170 days to give me reason that could be written early before sending to the academic editor. that could be the editorial team did not check carefully or they need to build the capacity of the team to be more efficien.
