Submitting to this journal was just a waste of time. I've never experienced such a bad author experience at any journal before: Our submission was completely ignored. Also, contacting the journal staff after 3 months did not help to speed things up. After 4 months, still no academic editor was assigned to our submission. At the end, I was forced to withdraw my manuscript. The only positiv aspect: Journal staff confirmed my withdrawal request on the same business day.
