mubaig Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Awesome. I been a fiverr buyer for sometime but just created my first gig.I will be creating more gigs. I feel like I have a huge mountain to climb in order to make that first sale. But I definitely won’t be private messaging experienced sellers. 😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitrigwrites4u Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Besides, if you ask in the forum you will most likely get more advices from more people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anamariaedan Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I was just about to start a post on the same subject. I got 5 messages the last week and some of them are real spammers, causing my response rate to decrease very badly.However, I think it would be easier for them if the posts with advice for the new seller would be pinned on top. Maybe they don’t know how to search for them, and starting a new one every single time is frustrating for top rated sellers. (If there is one there already, I am sorry. I just don’t see them pinned on top anymore.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misscrystal Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Did anyone else get the letter from Mrs Eunice Paul in Benin who wants to give away 2.9 million dollars and is in the hospital dying of cancer? She’s a newbie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palabara Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Amen! I don’t mind helping or providing advice and what not, but getting ambiguous help message in the inbox is not the way to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thevideostore Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Amen brother - It really is annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babibalubi Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Yes, it is really weird sometimes 🙂Recently I received a message from a newbie, basically asking me:“What is a Gig? I do not understand Gig. This is not english word, explain better, not saying Gig!”.As I am a helpful guy by education, I sent him the link to the Fiverr Help section, and I received a real rude, surprising answer, more or less like that:“You and Fiver are ***** and you should be ***** if you do not help me you *****, I will delete my account… you are obliged to help me you ****”.For sure I said thanks for that 😉Well, strange world we are living in… 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emmaki Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I had a “hi” in my inbox today. That was the whole message. I wrote back “yes?” and reported them. I considered “bye,” but that might have been considered “rude”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
writer99025 Posted March 8, 2016 Author Share Posted March 8, 2016 Yeah that…really irritating…but have to reply because of the response rate thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palabara Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 yeah I am getting at least 2 a day now. This is growing into a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djenniz Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Good thing I saw this topic just now, I didn’t think it would be very annoying to the veterans, so I was about to send a few messages myself, haha.While this forum does seem like a great place so far though, many topics in the ‘improve my gig’ section barely get any comments. Even though my topic on there is getting views, no replies yet. Are there any vets here that would mind taking a look? 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babibalubi Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Indeed. It is very complicated to differ between the “rude” bye and the “friendly” bye 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
