Drawn back before first editorial decision after 334.4 weeks
Drawn back
2016
Motivation:
Repeated attempts to contact the editor about the status of the manuscript remained unanswered. Even a withdrawal request remained unanswered for several weeks until I phoned up the publisher. It then took two more weeks to withdraw the paper.

Motivation:
It took very very long (16~18 months) for the first review for two of my papers in this journal (both accepted with little delay after first review). However, another paper took only 5 months from first submission to publication. So it was a mixed bag.
