    This has been discussed many times over the years on the forum. So here is a question, if they stopped taking 20% from tips. Do you really think that people would not immediately start asking for a $200 order to be paid for as a $5 service and a sneaky $195 tip to avoid paying fiverr?

    That would happen 5 seconds after they changed the rules. 

    I was thinking about the same thing. The only legit solution I see is that fiverr suggest %s of the order value when the buyer wants to tip the seller.

  2. My favorite quotes are from The Lord of the Rings.

    1- Not all those who wander are lost.

    2- All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.

    3- Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens.

    And this is my favorite poem:

    “All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.”

  3. Hello,

    I have been invited to give a talk about freelancing and introducing fiverr at local event; mainly to explain the marketplace and the workflow.

    The audience will mostly be students and some professionals.

    I was thinking about doing a quick demonstration on how to setup an account and create a gig. Also, to explain the process of hiring/delivering, I will need to post a buyer request (logo design) from my account, one of the students will send an offer, I will accept it and hire him. For the tutorial purposes, he will deliver a logo which I will provide.

    Is this safe for my account? Specially when multiple accounts will probably signups on the same network, and time between me hiring a student and he delivering the fake project will not be more than half an hour.

    Thanks!

  4. Thank you Frank for putting time to do this, my question is; is this based on your experience with the marketplace or you have actual information from the “cuisine interne”?

    I always tried to break down how Fiverr works and experiment with how it treats various data. Not to outsmart the system but to actually understand the real system.

    Understanding that Fiverr is no longer the traditional cheap marketplace filled with amateurs and unprofessional is mandatory, for both sellers and buyers.
