The next phase will definitely shake things up a bit. 😉 Do you know if they'll make an announcement about the upcoming changes or where one is posted? 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiverr usually rolls out a feature and then there's a small announcement made on either the blog, the forum or a new section on the seller helpdesk. When this new set of features starts rolling out, you will definitely hear about it here, as I will be able to talk to people about it and explain how it works. 17 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No VPN, time travel. You are actually looking at my profile from 3 years forward, Fiverr dumped the blue check mark thing in early 2023. By the Way, @frank_d now is CEO, and @damooch916 is head of security. But the really good news is they say they will clean up the forum soon.

intel_007 Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 Our firm received the blue check mark last week. We're in a tightly regulated industry where many in our gig category aren't licensed or transparent with their credentials thus we see the verification shield as a good thing. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least tell me I'm in the nomination pool!' But then my brain kicked in and asked: 'Maybe it's because I'm not on Fiverr in three years?' Which... Perspective. Do I want to be in this mess of a forum for another three years? Do I want to tolerate this, day after day?

But we may have that “members only,” cool kids club section by then. Some stuffy, elitist paradise - where we buy into the torrid circus of it all. A place where long time members, with only defined forum personalities, are allowed. The sort of high society group where we grow fat from our power and we lose our sense of common humanity. Personally, it sounds amazing and I can’t wait. Or … ya know… the actual “regulars” cast could just organize a virtual mixer by invite, like we should have done years ago. @frank_dwhat do you think about that? Let’s organize a virtual mixer and do an invite only type deal. The sort of thing that you can make people wear funny hats in a bid to attend. Actually Frank, I’m realizing this is a phone call conversation and not really forum chatter. Nobody saw nothin. Go about your business, you. There, I fixed it.

So, in your vision of a three year future; your societally defunct, apocalyptic drama sequence … some amalgamated state of reality where fiverr manifests into physical landscapes … where new sellers in white hospital clothes line the walls of bleak buildings and sellers clog the roads, offering their goods for coins in an outstretched hat… In this “Kafka meets Road Warrior” dystopia, with its rows of big building desk attendees and it’s ravaged population - layered in torn rags and seeking pocket money by calling to you on the broken roads - “I just got my first gig dear…” they say in a gravel tone, “how do I get customer,” they whimper as you toss them to the ground … …In this place, you think that I’m some chain swinging, dystopian cowboy type? Some highly appointed specialist that deals in insanity and morbidity? Some weird shadow like creature- trading in fear, ridicule, physical imposing - and yet capable of loud outbursts and cerebral, yet bizarre, dissertations that aim to harm the wicked and disable the falsely righteous? Well Mike… I guess my only question is… How is that different from now? I didn’t make promotion in three years? I think your crystal ball is broken Cleo. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had several breaks, because I do get fed up with some things regularly, but I always gravitated back, so far. Perhaps, Fiverr not sending out mails about things you'll only find out about on here, and this quagmire of forum overload and white noise is by (forum attendance) design, after all... You just want to check for anything important, quickly, but can't, really, or just want to like a post, have to log in for that, and to not drown in the mire of redundant threads, see your notifications, and before you notice, you've spent far too much time yet again 😅 44 minutes ago, damooch916 said: he sort of thing that you can make people wear funny hats in a bid to attend. Reminds me of the Elementary series, where that, err, internet information collecting collective makes Holmes (later Watson too, one or two times, I think), umm, wear funny hats and stuff, that could be fun! And we could have a turtle mascot. Or just coffee, and that "eat coffee for lunch" Fiverr ad poster as a banner. Would be a bit troublesome to meet in person to eat real coffee, though, if that's what clubs are for, no wonder they are about meeting only people from your more or less immediate surroundings then. In any case, if an in flesh meeting place, I suggest a Diogenes Club style club then, so the eremite and not communicative in person freelancers among us can sit in their armchairs in community but in silence and chat digitally in one room, while the social butterflies can merge, mingle, and vividly discuss with facial expressions and using hands and feet instead of emoji. To be fair, travel expenses are a thing, after all, that club location would need to rotate, so at least one person per sitting could attend without going bankrupt. Oh. I'm spending too much time here, again. Edited June 3, 2022 by miiila 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
