lloydsolutions Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 What was the exact wording regarding the warning you received? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyonagrapie Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Well, for starters you a re discussing things in discord. Why? Just why risk your account like that, you can have the same chat over fiverr.Just say no to any outside communication, unless absolutely necessary. Then say no to any scammy offers.Either they go away after that, or atleast you stand a better chance in dispute, if they try to report you or harm your profile in any other way.

uk1000 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 No I never did he gave me his discord and told me to join to discuss for a website design he had for universityYou shouldn’t have discussed it on discord and it it was academic work (the university project he was supposed to do) you could have got a warning for that. Doing someone else’s academic work is against the rules/TOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alyonagrapie Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 he said to discuss something over making a websiteIt’s up to you as a seller to evaluate whether there is something that must be discussed outside of fiverr. If you’re not sure, you can contact CS to ask them if that would be ok.Just tell them any polite version of “no, outside fiverr contact is not allowed according to ToS”. You might lose a client or two, but you won’t get a warning and won’t get banned.If they feel like they are more articulate in voice and can’t express what they need in text, you can ask to record a voice message or a video with their requirements for you and send it within fiverr message system.

uk1000 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 okay I just didn’t knew so will this warning affect me anyway If don’t do anything contact from now onJust follow the rules in future and it should be okay.

Plus if it is homework as it appears to be you can tell them it is against TOS and you do not want to lose your account.Fiverr does not allow services to be offered that involve helping students with academic work.ToS states:Taking part in doing someone else’s academic work (which will likely be submitted as the student’s own work) or requesting academic work to be done for you is unethical since it violates most schools’ Honor Codes and constitutes copyright infringement. Fiverr does not allow this type of fraudulent activity, and it will not be permitted on our platform.Just copy and paste the above into your reply to this buyer.If you already booked it, then cancel it and open a ticket with CS explaining why you cancelled it. Then they will adjust your stats to not reflect the cancellation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alyonagrapie Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 okay thank you for your help but I feel like this account will never become good with that warningOne warning is not that big of a deal, if you don’t break any rules again it won’t affect your account significantly, especially since you don’t have a level to lose yet.However as of now you might be breaking another rule. Just a hint: you might want to change your profile picture, if that young man is not you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
