I had the questionable pleasure to be asked to review a paper for JAS-CSSE. Despite my outright REJECTION on the poor, poor paper (in my opinion fully justified, based on duplicatory character of the studies, awful writing, poor presentation and formating), the “editor” – Anne Brown I think – seems to have advised the Authors to apply my editorial comments, and accepted the paper.
If that doesn’t put doubt on the already questioned OA, WHAT would…?!?
Also, the same journal title issue applies for Bothalia (http://www.abcjournal.org/index.php/ABC, ISSN 0006-8241 (print) | ISSN: 2311-9284 (online), who even on their webpage prewanrs on the predatory copy of theirs, bothalia.com.
