Freelancer Lounge

I recently signed up specifically because I was referred to a Fiverr Seller by a friend who can vouch for this person’s work. I sent a message to the Seller that mentioned my friends name, and apparently there’s some social or cultural problem with that, so I tried to delete the message by clicking the trash can icon in the top right of the screen.

I messaged again a couple days later, omitting my friend’s name.

BUT the old message is prepended to the new message! The old message was completely gone, but now it appears out of no where.

Why did Fiverr pretend the previous message was deleted, but now it prepends the previous message, which was gone from the screen, to the new message? It’s bizarre behavior from the site.

There’s no point in putting a trashcan icon if you can’t actually delete the conversation.

How do you delete a message that was previously sent?
