Help Forums are Just Trolls I posted a job wanted ad, and it was flagged and removed twice. I tried to find out why, using the help forums, but it's just a bunch of trolls telling me how stupid I am for trying to get a job and learn a new industry. The resume section is full of junk, including "lonely moms" but those posts don't get flagged. I seriously believe there are these people sitting around all day harassing people that are actually trying to better themselves.

Flagging has made the site unusable Flagging mechanism is grossly abused with no way to review, correct or appeal. Legitimate ads are taken down in minutes or a few hours at the most with no warning just because someone can click 'flag' at the top of the page. This not only makes the site unusable to sell or promote anything, but also severely limits the pool of legitimate offers which might be of interest to buyers.

Craigslist in the Austin area ROCKS! Not sure why so many people are down on CL, especially in the Austin TX area. I have always had spectacular results selling my stuff on CL. Yes, there are the occasional deadbeats who try to low ball, or who don't show up, and the occasional scammer (who are easy to recognize). But that happens on any board. I love CL.

Craigslist has really gone downhill… Craigslist has really gone downhill over the years. Postings get taken down for no reason. No customer support. I don't recommend this company.

Craigslist..Two faced organization. Craigslist is a great place to sell or post a 'wanted' ad... Until someone 'flags' you for no reason and craigslist simply sees their flag and takes your ad down cut and dry..no reasons(s) given. They believe anyone..actually they don't believe anyone except someone hitting the 'flag' sign. It's automatic for them. Craigslist is a spineless organization that doesn't know the difference between right and wrong. They don't even follow their own guidelines about treating people fairly.
