I think I understand what you are trying to say. That I have a different view of other freelancers' response time as a result of me being a freelancer myself. Correct me if I made an incorrect assumption about your message.
I was a buyer for 18 months before I became a freelancer/seller. My attitude toward sellers' response times was the same when I was only a buyer. The other buyer who shared similar experiences on the forum (sorry, I forget their name) is also only a buyer as far as I recall, so there are buyers who think this way. My post was just to correct the assumption that all buyers, or even most buyers, are only focused on who responds the quickest.
Thank you I understand. What do you think as a buyer. Why don't other buyer reply?

I am also a buyer on Fiverr. I have purchased more than 200 services. Only once, one single time, have I looked at who was online as I needed something fast (4 years ago now). Most of the time, I could not care less. I message you because I want to work with YOU, not someone else. I will wait for you to respond. Another buyer on here posted something similar recently, so I am pretty sure I am not the only one who operates in this way as a buyer.
Also, as an experienced seller, I will tell you that it can be a nightmare to work with a buyer who wants something done urgently or ASAP (I have really gotten to hate seeing those two words). They are often the most difficult to please.
So, all in all, my opinion is that being online is a waste of time. I get most of my inquiries when I am offline. Spend your time learning instead of mindlessly refreshing a page.
As a freelancer you may understand the scope of another freelancer. But after I reply many buyer late they did not answer me anymore

What a very odd question!
If a man dies then what will be his or her Fiverr account? Uhh. 🤨
The account likely either is set inactive by a friend or family member, or the account gets placed on indefinite hold for not responding to orders, messages, and for general inactivity.
Unfortunately, there's at least one successful account I can directly reference. Activerog was a successful 'memey' Australian spokesperson who passed away. His account is still present on Fiverr and his gigs are not visible on his profile but can still be found via internet search, but on top of his gigs is a disclaimer stating:

This is what I wanted to know. Thank you for sharing your experience. You are right this is a odd post. But i like to know something unknown . Which people never do

you understand by reading my question I am posting to know it. No one jokes about dying

I've never died so I'm not sure. The stats probably go down to 0% after a while.
This is not a fun post. If you know anything about this or fiverr is saying about this ? so please let me know.

We know people are mortal. So if a man dies then what will be his or her Fiverr account. Do you know anything about this? Looking forward to the feedback of experienced people.
Thank you

I think, as a general observation, people from non-western nations tend to be overly polite in their communications, and that might look weird to us from the west. Sir, madam and dear are used in countries where a high degree of politeness is required just to not come across as rude, while other nations and cultures might have a more relaxed way of doing things. To avoid issues both ways, I find it best to be polite but not personal.
So I’ll start a conversation like this:
“Hi there, John! Thanks for reaching out.”
And I’ll end it with:
“All the best,
Leo”
Yes, I know muslims adress even strangers as brother, at least in a lot of arabic countries, but that is mostly done between muslims, not to a non-believer, at least not in my experience, @mdminhaz05
@smashradio thank you so much for the value advice 😊

I have a lot of muslim friends and business asscociates, that I work with on a regular basis. I’ve studied religious history and archeology with imams, and I even produced a “crash course on politeness in Islam, and how it pertains to multicultural communication” for a muslim foundation. I think I’ve been called “brother” once, and that was from an intern.
Professional muslim business people don’t go around calling random people brother or sister in business matters. In religious matters, it’s a totally different thing. Muslims consider themselves to be part of a brotherhood (ummah), and can call eachother “Akhy” (my brother) or “Ukhti” (my sister), but this is not used for non-muslims, or at least, rarely, especially not in business matters where you don’t even know the person.
With all that said - there is also the cultural element - where people from certain arabic speaking countries use brother a lot, but my point is that, online, you should avoid anything that might be percieved as rude or make the other party uncomfortable.
@smashradio Agree with you but many times Muslims address strangers as brother those who take religion seriously say so. It is a culture

Is the individuals you wish to call “sister” or “brother” your actual sister or brother - meaning - do you share parents? If not - then why would you call them “sister” or “brother”? If I’m buying social media services from you, I’m not your friend, and I’m not your brother - I’m your client. You should adress me by my name, or if you don’t know my name, the username will do fine.
I realise that in some cultures it might be respectful or friendly, but it does not belong in professional business communication.
@smashradio Thank you very much for your beautiful informative talk. Would you please tell me if it is right to address the buyer as sir?

Can I call someone sister or brother?
It would be unprofessional to call a random stranger brother or sister (not to mention that it’s easy to misgender someone on the internet, and therefore look like a fool), even if it’s acceptable in some cultures.
And if it’s not acceptable in their culture… Well, then you’d look like a weirdo who calls complete strangers brother or sister, plus some people might think you’re trying to scam them or something.
@catwriter Thank you for giving me such a nice suggestion ❤️

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.
@bintzia Thank you so much for your Important comments 😊
