Dear Editor,
I wrote my first article "Linking Physical, Mental and Social Health" for a public request. I think that the content was powerful enough as i did enough research about the subject matter. Since this was my first post it was really disappointing when my account was simultaneously suspended with rejection of the article. It would not have be so hard to accept rejection but suspension seems unbearable. Following is the review i got for my article:
We have reviewed your content, "Linking Physical, Mental and Social Health." Unfortunately, this article requires revision before we can accept it.
==== Editorial Information for Your Article: ====
We do not accept content with grammar errors. Your account has been suspended because your submissions do not meet our requirements. We will consider no more of your work.
==== End Editorial Information for Your Article ====
Please take this information into consideration for future submissions. In addition, Submission Guidelines should be followed to avoid repeated rejections:
Would you please let me know why my account has been suspended even when there is no clause advocating suspension of account on grammatical errors in 'Writer Guidelines'. It has been explicitly mentioned that 'plagiarism will not be tolerated and will result in immediate account suspension' and was not the case with my article.
I hope you understand that this practice of suspending account is discouraging to budding writers who has the potential and quality to become good writers.
Kind Regards,
Grammar Errors and Suspension of Account

Re: Grammar Errors and Suspension of Account
I'm sorry, but the quality of the content submitted was well below our expectations. Basic grammar and clarity errors were found throughout. Because this is a site for professional writers who have already developed the skills necessary to produce quality, error-free content, we cannot continue to review articles from writers who clearly require more practice.
There are many sites where budding writers can practice and perfect their craft. Good luck in your future writing endeavors.
Thank you,
Ed

Re: Grammar Errors and Suspension of Account
Thanks for replying to my question Ed. I was really impressed by the way CC works and the way it maintains the quality of content. I accept that I am still learning to write and it was a grave disappointment. I want to know if this suspension is permanent and I would never be able to post articles on CC even when I think I have gained good writing skills. Or when the time comes, making an account using another E-mail ID can be a solution to this problem?
Thanks for the good luck too!
Thanks for the good luck too!
Re: Grammar Errors and Suspension of Account
I'm sorry, but account suspensions are permanent and we are unable to consider content submitted under accounts by those who have re-registered after suspension.
Thank you,
Ed
