  1. Aaaaha! Someone will screenshot this into their YouTube video encouraging everyone to increase post response because DIDN’T I TELL YOU!
  2. You didn’t read them. She literally said not to thank her. You think posting on the forums “thank you” makes you look good, or brings you orders, but showing that you can’t even read (which is what you did here) has the opposite effect. Now you look like a meksell that will never go anywhere, congratulations. I looked up meksel and came across this historical and informative nugget from the forum history And I was also reminded of one of frank’s post to be kind. By tomorrow @miiila 's post will be flooded by more thank yous and heartmojis. We cannot end up calling out everyone… I received a notification and said hey don’t encourage me lol! ❤️ After I typed, @miiila had included an edit to keep the post on track 😅 Why not? I once ordered from another seller who had worked with me on a manual for a buyer. I had checked his work and liked it. Also, there are so many sellers outsourcing their work/part of it. For example, I helped a screencast video developer develop a storyboard. Spamming is what’s being discouraged in the post! I just noticed your ID is not associated with a Regular badge 🤯 I read threads as far back as 2017 and benefit from your responses on them.
  3. That happens a lot with me as well. Once during a zoom (audio), a client (while demoing their software) pointed it out and asked me where my schooling was from, and how old I was! It was surprising because I was from DOWN THERE… (downthereistan lol) Legit question! Maybe ask them the pronunciation and ask them whether there is an alternate initial they would prefer (maybe) or… just ignore the elephant in the room, avoid calling the name and sincerely hope there is no need! Okay, someone please share the right way.
  4. You could have easily left “name” out and say something like “Can you respond, please?” In retrospect, yes. My emotional side took over on the fourth day with no response. This is the client who messaged after a month of delivery and acceptance stating, “Why haven’t you shared the manual yet?”
  5. On a side note, I had/have a client who is “originally” Asian and the one instance I exasperatedly referred to their first name with “Name, will you please respond” Was met with, “It was disrespectful” :roll_eyes: I informed them that was far from my intention but seriously, you are singlehandedly destroying my project timelines 😑 Then I had a senior client from India who had ordered unannounced, I referred to her as ma’am (the one time I did) because calling her with her first name didn’t feel right due to culture.
  6. LOL! Dear Bintzia We have received your application. Unfortunately, you are not a right fit for our company. Your application seems a bit… off. Don’t apply again. Regards, On another note, the Asian dear is just nails-on-board 😑 Sure dear. Okay dear. Feeeel that??? A dear in a salutation is acceptable but even that is not a part of contemporary communication.
  7. You may. However, people do not like it as it is unsuitable in a professional setting. That is the purpose of the thread; sir, madam, brother, yo, bro, brother, sister, friend, dear, bruh should not be used.
  8. Asiq, besides the already available advice here, I would recommend studying business communications as well. It helps a lot in responding to Buyers’ Requests and individual buyers’ messages as well. All the best
  9. I just discovered this thread and forum is telling me I used all my likes 😑
  10. Not. At. All. Asians are equally annoyed. The salutation is archaic and the dear that is being referred to is “I will do this for you dear” It is definitely not a part of old English.
