    posting is easy. I have noticed that even if they do delete, i open a new account and do it again. i use a different account ever day.

    boo hoo hoo. What i am listing on there is not spam, its assholes that use the boards that report it as spam that force me to relist.

    Hell, i posted an add last week asking for a maid to come over to my house to clean for ONE day because i am moving and dont want to clean it myself and they reported that as spam too. theres no end to it

    Craigslist is a lottery.
    Spam or no spam, people flag you like crazy.
    It looks to me that there are people living just for that.
    Even legit ad get flagged in few minutes...:mad:

    indeed. it is sad. I try to post LEGIT ads every day, and every day they get deleted so i just keep reposting them

    FYI ... the ads i am talking about are FOR SALE ads for my boss... cars.

    Yea CL used to be a pot of gold but they have gotten much stricter i have basically given up so many other sources out there that don't require as much work they may cost some at times but better use of time.

    So far I've been IP banned once...and that was when I tried the 'one account per city' idea!!! BAD idea...time to change my IP address!! :D

    I live in the dating section! :D (Yes, I'm a 29 year old virgin!! :D:D)

    I don't post URLs. They E-mail me, and then I reply to them with the URL.

    There are people living to flagg craigslist add.

    No later than this morning, I made an add for 4 tires, with a photo and my name and my phone #. Truly a legit add.
    4 minutes. It tooks 4 minutes to get flagged and removed...

    The posts now only last 7 days for classifieds, how do you get PR in that amount of time?

    To post a link in craigslist, use the a href tag, like this:
    <a href="http://www.SanDiegoWaterSports.com/">http://www.SanDiegoWaterSports.com/</a>
