Motivation:
I submitted in July. After months of being "under review", and no response to any emails, we received rejection on new year's eve.
From a different editor.
Who couldn't spell the name of their own journal.
Who quoted our own conclusions as a reason for rejection.
In an email with more spelling and grammar mistakes than there were lines in the email.
Finally, the rejection was stated as being due to the paper being unsuited for being sent to review. After 5 months under review!
We received no reply, or reviewer's reports, despite contacting the journal for an appeal.

Motivation:
Although, the initially, 2 reviewers suggested major revision and one reviewer rejected the paper. The editor asked for a major revision which was made but the reviewer who rejected still didnt agree with the quality of the paper after the revision as well and later, the paper was rejected.
