catwriter Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 It won’t help. Even when there’s a big huge banner on the top, people don’t read, they just ask the same questions over and over again.There were some pinned topics in the past, and yet people kept creating their own.

marinapomorac Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 “We are working in site improvements. We will be back shortly. Thank you for your patience.”Hi!

Why is this happening?I tried refreshing and clearing cache?Any long term Fiverr expireance people can help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
english_voice Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 In theory, it’s a nice idea!The problem is that you would have to pin so many topics that it would then become meaningless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadow513 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 honestly would love that because the amount of times I have answered that question today is just funny. I’m fine with people asking how to improve their gig. It is just when people are asking about how to get their first sale and we don’t know anything about what they have tried like:I got no sales pls help.(rant)And it turns out they set up their gig and expected to get their first order overnight when they have done nothing to help bring in buyers and there is like a not even finished description with a stock image as the images that has nothing to do with what they are selling.Sorry about the rant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

looseink Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 There’s a better answer.I think newbies should automatically have to go through a “probationary period” where they are separated from all other Level 1, 2, Top Sellers.During the probation, newbies can only move on if they:Read the ToSReach XX amount of minutes of read time on the Forum with specific posts as required readingMake it to the end of the probation period with XX salesReach the end of the probation period with ZERO ToS violationsJust my two cents.

With the number of sellers on here already, it’s pretty difficult to get any sales, especially if you’re new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melanielm Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 As long as “gurus” out there preying on the inexpeiernced keep telling them they have to post on the forum a lot to get orders, these types of efforts will have no impact.I don’t think most sellers who ask these types of questions both to read or truly understand the genuine answers, anyway. Call me cynical.A basic class with quiz they have to pass before they get to post at all on the forum might work, but that will never happen.
