akshay_anvekar Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I have experienced in numerous times that sellers use bots to bid against buyers request Sellers like me who give a 100% custom bids to buyers get steeped by these bidders due to the buyer not knowing about, At least this gives bad experience to buyers as mostly these sellers can’t fulfill their request and eventually they leave Fiverr . It’s my humble request to you take strict actions against this and give justice to the seller like me. I have myself used Buyers request as I buyer and experienced this number of times 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonbaas Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 And what evidence, or proof, do you have that “bots” are bidding against you? There is no way for you to see who submits a response to any buyer request, so how do you know that “bots” are submitting seller responses and driving buyers away from Fiverr?I have been a buyer, and I have submitted project requests, to which sellers have responded, and never once – in all of my five years here, have any of those seller responses been from “bots”. You’ve been here for less than a month, and you’re already accusing Fiverr of wrongdoing.Please do not make up false reasons or assumptions so that you can seem like you deserve BR jobs more than anyone else. If you aren’t winning jobs as a seller in the Buyer Requests section, then perhaps you are just being out-competed by better sellers, who submit better seller responses.“Bots” are NOT stealing all of the jobs in BR. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When many people see a BR, you’re going to get a lot of quick responses. This is simple math, not a complex “bot” conspiracy.If you want to win the job, write better responses. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Period. None. Nada. Just sellers, like you competing for the job. Some of those sellers copy-paste their response. Others write custom responses. And still others will win the jobs, because they wrote the best response.There are no bots.If you want to win the job, write better responses. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arty182925 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 If this is true what you are saying, that there are many bots, don’t you think you should be better then “bots”?There are many sellers competing in buyer request. Many of them just copy paste their message, but rarely any of them are getting orders.You might want to improve your message in buyer request to stand out from all that “bots” (even there aren’t any). 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frank_d Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I posted a couple of BR back in the day and I can assure you:There’s a person on the buyer’s end of things as well.Not some mindless mechanism that rewards speed and irrelevant responses.If you think people are pasting in garbage responses then it’s to your advantage.Write in a better response and get the order in. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You joined Fiverr in March 2019 – last month – less than a month ago. It would be unwise to call your competitors “scummy sellers”. You aren’t winning any reputation awards right now either. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariashtelle1 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Buyers are new and yet dont know that their are some scummy sellers on the site and therefore they fall for it😁 Are you trying to blame imaginary bots for you not getting orders?I think it’s time to stop looking at others and concentrate on your work.Believe me no buyer likes copy pasted responses and most likely wouldn’t fall for it. What you don’t know is how many other sellers wrote better response than you.Don’t look for problems in fiverr algorythm. If 100 sellers bid on a request and buyer choosing some one else but not your very well written response then that means that that person had better message than you (or price or whatever else)Concentrate on yourself and if no one responding on your requests then most likely problem in your responses but not “bots” that doesn’t exist. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
