Hello Community! What's it like if Fiverr restarts '' Buyer Requests options?''

Question

Like other platforms, there are two types of buyers. Posting a job by describing their requirements and others coming by clicks. While posting a job, Fiverr can verify the payment methods of the buyers, and then allow the buyers to post the job, otherwise not. If this is done properly and strictly, I hope there will be few fake buyers in the platform and all sellers will be able to get more or fewer jobs through algorithm-sorting the particular Gigs. The Fiverr authority wanted to stop FAKE buyers and nothing else.

When there were buyer request features, all sellers might get jobs because they might describe the job how they would like to do it. The buyer messaged the seller who was the perfect fit.

 In some cases, those sellers who could do 70-80% of the work might apply/bid a proposal. Then the sellers got bad reviews or something else. 

Now, the algorithm detects different criteria which are quite impossible on the part of many many sellers! And a large number of sellers are not getting briefs. In this way, most of the sellers have been waiting---

Looking forward to hearing your conscious opinions!

The buyer request option is already replaced by the brief and basically the concept is the same. Here buyer can also describe his needs and if your keywords match with his requirements, you will get the notification. Before, we had to wait all the day to apply on these requests and applied on those request without read the requirements properly. WE had a limit as well. Now, we can take our time to read the text, understand that and apply  if everything matches with us.
