Flag/Report Gigs

[dsaidov]

Hello,

As the title says, I believe and suggest that there should be an option to flag and report gigs that are against fiverr’s ToS. What do you think about it?



Warm Regards,

That feature exists, actually, but it is hidden. I imagine it isn’t live for these reasons (guesses):

-Some would abuse it to flag competitors
-Some would report by accident taking up staff time
-Some would be honest but misunderstand the flag button and flag thinks that weren’t actual violations, taking up more staff time
-Even with real violations the number of flagged gigs could be unmanageable

My own suggestion would be for Fiverr to take a moderation path similar to the one used for the forums. It wouldn’t necessarily be the same people used as sheriffs and admins. They could look for some trusted people with a history of good judgement who could be “badged” as gig moderators. Some routine manual reviews of gigs could be done, gigs flagged, then a staff member could make final call.
