jjr0808 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Hello,Fiverr does give a chance to rate the service delivered publically and privately which is great, If Fiverr could also give a chance to rate conversations, it would improve the quality of a conversation. 2 cents.Thank you. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humanissocial Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Spammers and unscrupulous buyers would be able to manipulate me and affect my image and standing if this were to take effect.I shouldn’t be judged by people who don’t treat me right and no conversation rating could factor in this context. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uk1000 Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Your right. It is not a good idea.Though at one time, not sure if it’s still does, they had an option to rate if a reply you received was helpful. Even though it wasn’t shown anywhere publicly that would have then been used by Fiverr in some way, maybe it could have been used in the search ranking algorithm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though it wasn’t shown anywhere publicly that would have then been used by Fiverr in some way, maybe it could have been used in the search ranking algorithm.I remember getting a popup after I had contacted a seller asking me if the information they gave me was helpful or not with a rating of one to ten or something like that. It was weird.Spammers and unscrupulous buyers would be able to manipulate me and affect my image and standing if this were to take effect.I remember this is exactly what did happen. Sellers were using this against other sellers, or malicious people were deliberately giving sellers terrible ratings to get their gigs to rank worse. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be so easy to use that as a weapon for fraud, blackmail or sabotage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benedictrm Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Yes, I could give a really intelligent response covering many helpul points, but the person reading understand nothing not say wood stupid useless I.Unfair judgment that would be (said in Yoda voice) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misscrystal Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 I would get these strange messages where people would pretend to get all offended and enraged, kind of like I get here sometimes lol. I stopped getting those when they abandoned that feature. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benedictrm Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 The only possible thing worth investigating some way of penalizing those who Ghost - people who ask for a price or something, you give a long professional answer, commonly having to ask for more info on which to base a valid quote, and pfft.People who do this could well do with black marks against their name.

You don’t punish prospects with “black marks” if they don’t respond. Honestly…If people are ghosting you, maybe figure out why and fix that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t aim for long chats. Make them as short as possible and have more of a standard price ready to give them quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
