After urging, finally got a reply, saying waiting for the assignment of reviewers. Oh my god, it's been over five months and still no reviewers assigned, really frustrating.

Oh my goodness, it's been almost 6 months since the first review and I've followed up twice, but it's like talking to a brick wall. Can I please get a straightforward answer? Any fellow researchers with similar experiences to share? I feel reluctant to withdraw the submission, but I'm also anxious about leaving it hanging. It's a difficult situation to be in.

There is no fixed format for submissions, as long as the layout is neat and easy to review.

Are there any requirements for the submission format? Is it a free format? Can you provide some information on the acceptance criteria? Thank you.

The overall process was very fast, with efficient review, taking less than 3 months in total. However, I have not yet received a payment link. Does anyone know how long it usually takes to receive a payment link?

After one month of major repairs, a minor repair was done half a month later. (It was quite speechless, just one word was misspelled in a sentence). The reminder for accepting the minor repair was sent three days after the rework.

Submitted in January 2024, received major revisions in April, made revisions in May, received minor revisions feedback in June, and resubmitted a week later. Accepted in July. The overall process was efficient with two reviewers providing professional feedback.

However, the publication fee is $2520, which is expensive!

After minor revisions were made, the status changed to "Under initial checking" after submitting the revised manuscript. After a week, it directly changed to "Pending Decision". Does this mean it will be rejected?

The article was put under review on the same day. Oh my, most of the revised drafts in the comments were accepted directly, but I ended up with a second review.

The initial review status lasted for over 20 days; after several weeks of sending emails inquiring about it, it finally changed from initial review to Awaiting EIC Assignment. I don't understand.
