Graiglist need to modify the platform, anything i post for sale or community gets flagged or removed.
I never posted porn or sexual related posting.
It's time for everyone to forget graiglist and move on.
What a horrible platform! They allow posts from scammers and backyard breeders! But any legitimate breeder or business placing a post they Flag! BEWARE IF YOU LOOKING FOR A DOG THROUGH CRAIGSLIST - They are why real business and breeders get a bad rap!
Craigslist will let prostitutes and down-low s*x get posted all over the site, but the moment someone posts something gentle, genuine, or basic, it will be flagged into oblivion.
CL is the place scum reigns supreme and legitimately normal people are denied participation.
Going without community contact is better than using Craigslist.
This site is a BAD, BAD joke...
They remove/deactivate your listing for no valid reason because the site is run by people who are as smart as a box of hair and that is why it is packed with junk, crap and trash.
And good luck if you try to contact customer service and ask for an explanation, you better off talking to your chair!
I placed 4 new postings on Craigslist for various items I no longer need. # of the 4 were removed without any explanation whatsoever. Very innocent a simple postings.
No way to find out why they were removed. I'm going back to ebay.
Don't post on Craigslist. They have worst filters to remove your advertisements post for no reason. And they have stupid people flagging you down again for no reason. Especially if you're a paid user. They probably won't refund you back. They don't even have phone customer service even for paid users. Good luck trying to get your money back and email them if they even respond back. They never responded back to me in an email. This is very annoying.
I am blocked by Craigslist for no apparent reason. They give an email site to respond to, no one responds back. No idea why I am blocked, only posted normal items such as Gas Dryer, auto, etc. Never any complaints, posted maybe 5x in the last 2 years. Have emailed them 10x in last 6 months w/no reply. This is what it shows:
Your request has been blocked.

Apparently if I pay $5 for a music lesson ad it will place me in the poor house...I meant it will place me above all the non-payers in the lessons listing.
Good.
However, if everyone wants to pay $5 then Craigslist gets to make out on the competition and I pay $5 often just to be sure my original listing isn't now buried at the bottom.
This makes it impossible for a musician to post an ad like it was before they started charging.
This works for you if you're in a small city.
This works against you (and for Craigslist) if you're in a big city.
Furthermore, you're forced to charge your potential student more just to be seen on Craigslist in September 2023
There has been quite a few posts that are scams on here, houses for rent that actually are houses for sale, they use the pictures the Realtors have and then they use that and they post it for rent and then I'm on my way to Florida but it's a $50 application fee blah blah blah and we'll mail you the keys don't fall for it especially the senior Section 8 one. Realtors are trying to get it taken down but Craigslist come on get with the program it's a scam this is like the fifth one I found
Posted a request for friends only, specifically saying no sex or I'd block them. Literally just a friends with similar interests post. Never even made it to a live listing. They have a section called "missed encounters" and it's mostly sex workers, which doesn't bother ME, but they obviously allow them. Is it because they are "straight"? I want to see this crap site fall the way of MySpace... someone please develop a better model using their idea of a national platform, and just put ads at the bottom. No one cares about small ads at the bottom, I promise. Get paid, do better than Craigslist. They are an outdated model and provide almost nothing. Someone with computer website know how please make a better site!
Middle class lawn service. Do not try to hire anybody off of craigslist. I tried several times to remove some trees in my yard. They were small sapling trees. I got a quote from several, but they never showed. I sent the money. This is scam. The people who answer ads do not want to work they are degenerates. And I'm using the Republicans View. They are losers
Sea view apartments are purposely done to bring a serene yet tranquil aura and nature close to you. It gives perfect relaxation, and fills with a positive vibe and calm surroundings. Dubai is quite famous for serving such a kind of lifestyle as you know the Arabian Gulf is close to the city. So here I am going to tell you the most popular areas with sea view apartments in Dubai that are highly desired by the Arabs as well as immigrants.
Keep in mind it's A $5 Ad...When trying to post an ad for offer help people with moving service for a job the ad will be removed or All credit/debit cards keep getting declined in there system and in the past have done plenty of jobs on Craigslist with the exact same ad. I been moving local and long distance mover for both residential and businesses and all my customers very satisfied. Now when I try to post with the same credit card always use, the same same card always used in the past is automatically declined. We need work to survive and this is not right.
When trying to report a credit card that's not working which has worked just fine in the past and works well at evert other place I use it, craigslist does nothing to fix it or even respond. Trying to post a legitimate ad for work which I've also posted the same ad plenty of times. So nothing wrong with the post or card or even the user, it's craigslist themselves.
I have posted many times and the majority of the time I get harassed by people flagging my posts for no reason just because they're being haters. Craigslist should not allow anyone to flag a post without censoring it themselves before they do
Any legit ad is flagged on some technicality and the rest are all spammer scammers. Don't waste your time. Even posting using only the relay leaves your phone number getting bombed with spam calls. I get up to 30 scammer calls a day after I post on CL. Dump this site for good. Its yesterday years news. Washed up.
We attempted advertising services on Craigslist however it created nothing but spam. I don't even think we ever got any legit responses from it. We now have not advertised for probably almost 2 years and are still receiving emails that claim "your listing on craigslist". What a waste of time and energy..
I was seeking a room for rent. I could not find anything wrong with my post. I did state that I would not give anyone my online info such as Facebook, Instagram... etc... Instead that I would be conducting a background check on them as they can do the same thing.
The reasoning behind this is because without meeting the rental property owner they have no business asking for this information. It's easy to look up that info once you meet and you are able to to take a physical photograph of their government issued id. Never go on someone's word you don't know. Scammers evolve however we can continuously make it more and more difficult for them.
I posted an ad on Craigslist looking for accommodations for a music festival and started immediately receiving texts from "people" who answered my ad. Turns out they're all from "roomster" inviting me to join their site once I've clicked on the link that shows me the accommodations they're supposedly trying to rent out. Even if the site really exists, I'm not about to condone anyone who uses these kind of underhanded tactics to get your attention. "Let's see how many people we can screw over in an effort to make a million bucks." No thanks.
Wow does craigslist get really $#*!ed. Every single post I put up is flagged by craigslist before anyone can see it yet there can be 50 million porn ad and hookers and prostitution ads, what the heeeeeck... I read online forums and other people in same situation are clueless on what to do well not me you will see.
Answer: Because the dealers pay them. Craigslist has turned into a spammers haven. There are next to no real postings left. The scammers flag real postings so their ads get priority. Its a dead site.
