Hate the New Advanced Fiverr Review System? Let Your Voices Be Heard!

Do you hate the new Fiverr review system? This is the 5-star system, and if you read the forums you’ll see that it is causing some major agro with sellers and buyers alike.

You see, people don’t like rating things 5 stars all the time. It devalues the 5-star rating, but that is seriously going to affect sellers who have done well with a thumbs up/thumbs down system for the past up to four or five years.

So, do you hate the new system? It’s time you let your voice be heard. Here are a few things you can do.

Let the Fiverr Staff Know

It’s time to let the Fiverr staff know about your hatred. You can do this publicly and privately—and I really suggest doing both. Send a message to the support staff, and get in touch on the Facebook and Twitter pages. You can also tell the staff on the forums and on the blog post.

The more you speak up about it, the more people are going to hear you. One voice isn’t enough, but if enough Fiverr sellers and buyers let their hatred be known then Fiverr will eventually start listening.

Suspend Your Gigs

If you’re a Fiverr seller, make an effort to suspend your gigs. Of course, one person doing it isn’t enough. This is why there is a day on July 1 organized for sellers to get together and do this as one. I’d prefer it to be a week, but not many sellers are willing to do that.

One day may not sound like much, but if every seller suspended their gigs for that day it would send a very clear and honest message to the Powers That Be.

Those who are willing to, suspend your gig for a whole week and show Fiverr just what you think about the new star rating system.

Stop Buying Gigs

Fiverr buyers have much more power, and you can really affect the Fiverr staff. Why not go a day, week or even month without buying anything on the site? It may affect you at first, but you may find that all the best sellers disappear because they are fed up of their voices not being heard. Then where would you be?

Make it clear to the Fiverr staff that you support the sellers, and you don’t agree with this new rating system.

It’s time to do something about it. Fiverr just isn’t listening right now, despite so many people being against it. It’s time to make it clear that you hate this system every way that you can. If we all band together, we can let Fiverr know that we want the thumbs up/thumbs down back.
