Motivation: The review process was quick; I had the decision in my email in a month time.

However, one of the reviews did not match the content and the nature of my article, which I considered a serious ethical problem, especially because decisions are based on the reviews. Additionally, I noticed a lack of balance in the comments; both reviewers over-emphasised the downsides of the article, but no mention whatsoever of its potential contribution for this or other readership.

I tried to reach the Editor to explain the issues with a breakdown of the mismatching review. After the second attempt, he answered very briefly that the decision would not be changed.

I am very disappointed about this journal, and I doubt I'll ever send them an article again.
