Motivation: they stated our paper is not quite related to their journal topic, although the journal do publish many papers on this topic. this is ridiculous

Motivation: In the first round of reviews, I felt that the reviewers and editor put quite a bit of effort into providing really thorough reviews and I feel that my revisions, which required reanalyzing data, did improve the paper, but then they rejected it for lack of novelty. I just feel that if that is what they are going to judge a manuscript on, they should not invite a resubmit - that was irresponsible.

Motivation: The decision was based on the manuscript not being fit for the journal. The editor gave good reasons for this decision, even though he praised the quality of the study,
