Summary: I have TWO separate "confirmations"... that Fiverr has admitted it's MISTAKE... and returned to the Thumbs rating system.
:-O
Full Details:
Ok, I have a strange situation here... which probably means I am the only one with this Data.
Hi, it's Robert the Considerate Buyer.
(And sometimes... it sounds like I'm the ONLY "considerate" buyer on Fiverr - Laugh!)
When I buy a Gig, and the Seller delivers, and what they deliver is poor/broken/not what was promised/etc... I do NOT hit the dreaded Request Modification button.
I participate on the Forum. I've read the Seller posts. So I know how much Seller's HATE that button!
Instead, I do something... which I'll admit, is somewhat strange. [LOL]
I message the Seller (usually in a SEPARATE thread from the purchase page). I explain the problem(s). I give them a full day to respond. And then I give them EXTRA time to correct the issue(s).
During all this time, I LEAVE MY COMPUTER ON. And the browser tab open, to the purchase page.
The next morning/evening/whenever I return to my computer... I simply refresh the pages (purchase and message-thread) to read the update from the Seller.
So...
Last night, I went to bed with TWO separate purchased Gig pages - OPEN.
Both gigs have been "delivered". Both had problems.
Both Sellers said, "Oh! I'm sorry. I didn't see that/these. I will correct."
"THANK YOU for not..." (yelling at me, threatening me, hitting the dreaded RM button, etc, etc, etc).
:)
So...
This morning, I drag myself out of bed after yet another round of too-little-sleep-cause-I've-got-too-much-work-to-do...
;-)
...I refresh the pages and...
BOTH PAGES replace the Star Rating with the Thumbs Rating!
:-O :-O
Keep in mind, that because both gigs were "Delivered"... and because I have not "officially" rejected them (by clicking the dreaded RM button, or even worse, requesting a Cancellation and thus, a Refund)... both gigs are now "counting down" the 3-day, Fiverr-will-automatically-mark-this-gig-as-complete clock.
So Fiverr is asking me to RATE the Seller.
Now... Because I thought it might just be a "glitch", I have refreshed the page several times, over the past hour.
BOTH PAGES are still showing the Thumbs rating, waiting for me to "complete" the gigs.
Robert
P.S. Sorry for rambling on for so long... but this is THE MOST IMPORTANT issue for Sellers currently... so I thought you would want to know the EXACT details.
