Has anyone posted an add on CL and it had no foul language or anything offensive of any kind nothing prohibited and have it flagged and removed?

This is the second or third time this has happened, I wish these extra sensitive fragile people would just stay off of CL and the Internet. I don't know about other parts of the world but we certainly have some really touchy people around here.

    I have no idea, I just posted another add asking what the deal was and it got flagged and removed also. I made a reference that what I was selling was not wife, kid or pet friendly, in those words. who would be offended by that.

    Craigslist in Chicago (pet section) is exactly what a forum would be if it had no rules.

    Random thought.

    Well, the only thing I know that CL doesn't allow is guns/ knives, but I'm assuming it isn't that?
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    It happened to me once. Pissed me right off! It was a boat ad for Christ's sake. Not a single thing in there but professionalism. But, they'll let any pimple-faced moron with a keyboard flag an ad, so what do ya do, but repost?

    I was reading a page that CL has about why things get flagged.
    If you put $1 on the TOC, but the listing has a different price.........
    If you say "Best Offer Gets It". CL isn't eBay..............
    If they think you're asking too much...........
    If you don't include brand and model number...........
    If you don't include pics..........
    There's all kinds of reasons. Check out CL's pages.

    I flagged a CL a once in the personals for best of CL. It started out with the title of Bitter with Bggage :D and went downhill from there, she spoke about her emotional state, weight gain issues, the kids she no longer wanted because they reminded her of her ex, problems with her probation officer, issues with drugs and alchohol she had been sober for almost a week since her last relapse :p


    REGARDS SNOW
    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D
