  1. Forex trading bot? Lol. Good riddance. Great to see they aren't approving all trash automatically, like before.
  2. What do you mean? How can both parties be able to postpone a revision? That doesn't make any sense. Sellers don't ask for revisions, ever.
  3. Really? Is it a coincidence that you said that you "strongly disagree with this policy", after I said the exact same above? Word by word? lol. And in what way do you "strongly disagree with this policy", if you also think that "this is a great feature to have"? If it's a "great feature", as you said, why do you "strongly disagree"? Maybe I'm weird, but I tend to strongly agree with great features. Pick one or the other.
  4. This is the most absurd take so far. Are you a bot that just copies parts of what others have said, verbatim, and mixes them into nonsense, or are you actually capable of having your own, original thoughts?
  5. That shouldn't be one gig with one delivery and one revision - that should be broken down into several. I won't be working on 113 deliverables to only be paid at the end, the risk is way too high. Fiverr needs to implement upfront payments yesterday. I'm tired of having to wait on clients to get what's mine. If Fiverr finally implements retainer deals, so I can get fixed payments per month, like a salary, from regular buyers... then I won't really care about revision delays. As it is right now, revision delays mean delays in getting paid, and that is called opportunity cost. $1 today is more valuable than $1 tomorrow.
  6. This is a bad idea. An order is a contract. The buyer has 3 days to review a delivery. If they need more time, that's their responsibility - sellers shouldn't be forced to wait extra time to get paid, or be forced to work on something past the agreed dates. If a seller needs more time, and the client doesn't agree, the order is marked as late. There's nothing the seller can do about it. And that's how it should be - a contract is a contract. That must work both ways. I strongly disagree with this policy. Unless Fiverr releases the funds after the 3 days, so we don't have to wait extra time to get paid, then I don't see how this is beneficial for sellers in ANY way. It's just a pro for the buyers, and a con for the sellers. Not good.
  7. I expected more from the Seller Plus forum, to be honest.
  8. I don't like it, personally. I don't like shutterstock's business model - paying by the asset for stock media in 2022 is absurd. You get an annual subscription to a library with unlimited downloads, and that's it. Not to mention there are far better options out there for quality footage. Either way, I don't even have the option in my gigs (for video), it's greyed out, saying Fiverr thinks it's not adequate for my gigs (why should Fiverr decide that for me?). Images are irrelevant for me. And for music, I'd much rather go through artlist or epidemic sound.
  9. Spam shouldn't count towards response rate, obviously, but this is simply not true. You have 24 hours to reply to messages, so you can sleep 8 hours all you want and never get a late response. Also, 12 years? Are we in 2026 and I wasn't aware of it?
  10. I do. Yes, I need to pay the stupid exchange rates, but it's instant in getting the money from Fiverr, and then I can transfer it to revolut, monese, my bank account, etc. The only other choice is payoneer... and I just don't trust that, don't know how it works, and it's associated in my head with scams and certain countries (where paypal doesn't operate). It's like "western union". I have no idea what that is in practice, never used it, but all the times I've heard about it was in shady contexts, from shady people, for shady transfers. No, thanks.
  11. Yep. So you have nothing to worry about, right? Anyone needing an experienced person will go to you and pay the right price, because if they want to pay just $5 they will get bad results, something that doesn't work, and end up having to go to you anyway, right?
  12. South Park > all Also, The Office, Friends, King of The Hill...
  13. Dishes - the machine does them. Floors - the roomba does it. Laundry - the machine does it. Taking out garbage - I do it, but that's like 10 minutes a week lol I think the real pro tip here is: don't have kids.
  14. What I do would be next to impossible in the 90's. There would be no volume of business. The hardware was not up to par. Video was cassette based. It just wouldn't work.
  15. That reminds me, I have to update my tinder profile to say I'm Pro and TRS. I'm sure that's what's missing.
  16. I've done it before, with people that straight up stole my gig videos. Half the time, nothing happened. Now they've gotten smarter - I've seen several people with videos following the same structure (same sentences on screen, same cadence, etc.) as mine, just swapping out the shots for other shots, while ripping off the entire concept. Very hard to do anything in those cases. But man, if you're a new seller claiming to have "hundreds of happy clients" in your video... lmao.
  17. The problem with raising prices in line with inflation is that it ignores purchasing power. The market is contracting. All the essentials are more expensive, which means people have less discretionary spending. Companies will invest less.
  18. It would come pre-installed by OEM's on literally all phones lmao
  19. I'm just a Plat :( Actually got to diamond this season, but ended up dropping again...
  20. Rocket League, all day long. Chess, of course, it's a lifetime thing. And MTG. Usually play draft at the local game store every week, but haven't in a while, lots of orders...
