New Fiverr Forum is up and live, faster than ever, and offers you loads of fun.
There are badges and levels to be earned, it's easy to mute topics you're not interested in (like endless self-promotion), you can edit your forum profile (here's mine), explore, read, learn... And all of it works pretty good. Some tweaks would be helpful, like an easier way to follow a conversation within a certain thread, but I'm sure that the team is already working on it. EDIT: It looks like nested responses are not possible on this type of forum (Discourse). Well, at least everyone got the answer and the explanation within a few hours of the request being raised; that's SUPERfast.
On top of that, random bots can no longer spam the forum; desperate users will find it difficult to spam, too, because posting is limited at first, and I seriously doubt that spammers will get the limit lifted anytime soon.
So... Go on, and check out the new and improved forum. It might take some time getting used to, but it's really good.
P.S. As an added bonus, there are cat emojis, too. And a scorpion emoji. And a lot of fun.
