Support & Troubleshooting

I have an increased amount of 4 star reviews lately, and I would put a lot of money on that it's not only me. Am I right? 

If you have been on the other side and bought something lately on Fiverr, it is very apartment why sellers are getting are getting more of these 4 stars, and it's quite frustrating, because it almost not even the buyers fault for doing this if you have seen the changes. 

If you haven't seen the latest rating system on the buyer side, here it is: 


 Buyers were asked to leave a review, and you were given 5 stars to pick from. Same system sellers still have when reviewing buyers. 

 

however buyers are not given this review system, but rather a spectrum of "phrases". I dont remember the exact phrase but it's something along these lines: 

The exact phrase is not important, what is important is that option 5 is a phrase that is over the top, and option 4 is a phrase that most would agree with. 

experience and it changed you as a human? (was kind of the vibe I got from option 5)"
 

I would say so, they did a perfect job, great communication, and overall just a really great experience.

When you are done you see that this represented a 4 star.

Buyers do not clearly know this represents a 5 star system, you just go with the option that sounds most fitting. 

Has anyone else seen this increase in 4 star reviews? I can't be the only one
