Is the response rate still calculated in a 24 hour period?

After a recent demotion back to level one (technical issue led to THREE orders being delivered late - not to mention a tonne of missed messages.) I’ve been taking a look at the analytics and notice that my response rate is far lower than it should be and could lead to further demotion.

As a copywriter, my inbox is filled with requests to write for “cancer-preventing” energy drinks and other snake oil products that IMHO Fiverr shouldn’t be associating itself with. But that’s for another topic. The fact is I’ll be punished if I don’t engage in some form of conversation with these people - which leads me to my question: if it’s been longer than 24 hours since receiving the message, is it still worth replying?

I was under the impression that after a day has passed, it has no effect on your analytics score - but the analytics page now simply states:

Respond to 90% of the inquiries you received in the last 60 days

Does this mean I should go back and reply to any unanswered messages for the last two months, or are we still under the 24 hour system?

According to the link from that page it’s (still) based on if you reply within 24 hours. I haven’t seen anything from Fiverr saying it’s changed.

Response Rate is the percentage of first responses to new messages that a seller sends within 24 hours.
