Hey trying to post e-scrap ad on craigslist...

You really shouldn't have any problems posting wanted adds in the wanted section. But i know my adds for "Free Appliance and Electronics Pickup" that i post in the free section get removed usually within an hour. I keep posting in that section though because that is where i get the best response.

Maybe I just went over my limit for the day...

I could probably just check google/youtube myself, thought maybe this is a particular problem wth e-scrap ads? Cause all my other stuff doesn't get touched.

This is kinda embarrassing considering my post in the scrap room, heh heh.

just check out other ads in that section- maybe u are using some words that the system picks up & causes it to reject your ad- just saying.

The topic has come up in the past. You would have to dig through the weeds but the thread is probably still there somewhere.

Memory is vague, but i think it came down to a competitor on CL that kept flagging the posts ?

The ad is staying up now not sure what was wrong. Thanks anyway.

Yes, normally your ad will stick until it gets flagged either by an offended reader or a competitor who wants to kick you off there.
