I am about the same time zone as you, but I still haven't paid the fee or provided proof.

How long does it take to decide whether to send for review or reject after submission?

The journal claims not to interfere with the opinions of the reviewers, mentors, and reviewer A uses AI for review, and much of the content is not from my manuscript. The first paragraph is scolding, the second paragraph praises the reading fluency, and I feel that his personality is split! Reviewer B is more professional, gently points out the problems, and then revises according to his suggestions. It is resubmitted. After 6 days without a response, I directly complained about reviewer A's exaggerated review and the use of AI to fabricate content. It took 7 days from submission to receiving feedback.

Is the rejection rate high for external reviewers? Submitted on 2.25, reviewed on 3.8, no news yet. Just worried that the external review might also be rejected!

After being hired, upon completion of payment, I will enjoy a 50% discount as a volunteer editor for journal articles, with an actual payment of 6300 yuan; I can submit the revised draft within one week after this employment.

How much is the APC fee? I saw on the official website that it is over 300 US dollars, and then some say it is over 2000 US dollars.

SAGE Open mainly publishes papers in the fields of social science and interdisciplinary research. The journal is indexed in the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) and is classified as an SSCI journal, not a Science Citation Index (SCI) journal.

Original: 楼主，请问您第二次怎么催的呢，我和你情况类似，是8月初让返修，八月底返修，九月底因为格式问题重新让提交，12月中旬发邮件问了一次，编辑说给我设为优先项，然后过了一星期还是没进度，想再次询问，你觉得是否合适呢，五月初就投了，到现在7个多月了

Translation: Original poster, may I ask how you followed up the second time? My situation is similar to yours. I was asked for revisions in early August, returned them by the end of August, resubmitted in September due to formatting issues, and in mid-December I emailed to inquire about the progress. The editor said they would prioritize my submission, but after a week there was still no progress. I am considering following up again. Do you think it is appropriate? I submitted in early May, and it has been over 7 months now.

May I ask if the editor's name is displayed in the system after the major revision submission? I only see "ADM: Editorial Office" here.
