I was posting an add on CL for one of my friends that has her computer in the shop til tomorrow- and saw on CL while doing so


You have to have an account to post now hooked to an email !

AND PHONE AUTHENTICATION  

reasons for this, no more spammers  -
If CL were ever subpoenaed over you, its covers their buttcheese-  that they are collecting some kind of info -
You cannot post now - with out phone authentication !
If you dont get the authorization 2 seconds after they call , you are screwed LOL  
So no one can use fake phone numbers-  
no one can spam -
not many can post bullshit anymore-

I LOVE IT --
Craigslist used to be kewl last year before pimps and spammers took it over-

I love it, maybe craigslist will be normal again !!

The credit goes to us,we just made the history

Good riddance....

Our board about charitable donations to scantly clad escort providers in a gray area economy beat up their board about charitable donations to scantly glad escort providers in a gray area economy.  God is on our side.

If I were to want to post anything on CL (selling, or job search or something) I will have to give them my phone number and wait for them to call me before it gets posted?

1. Why the hell would I want to give CL my phone number?

2. How long before they call me? Will I be home? They have hundreds if not thousands of ads going up everyday, how are they going to call everyone?

3. I would only have a 2 second window to answer the call?

4. Or is this only for the "erotic" area of CL and only applies to those posting with contact numbers in their ad?

b-

You werent reading what i typed-
To stop spammers
to stop nonsense-
They call with authorization code in 2 seconds !
310 area code-

you can sell a car or boat but you have to have authorization to sell pussy?

Its with all area's of CL -

and spammers of the CL but you cannot take
the CL out of the people who use that site.
no offense to the few normal people who i have never met on CL

I advertised there once.
Yuck is all i can say, with a side of ewwwe
I got the freakiest emails.
So while you can find my old furniture selling on CL
You cannot find my A$$ on CL.


MOMMY!!!!

Maybe it'll reduce the trash we get from it.

I still don't get it.

"You cannot post now - with out phone authentication !
If you dont get the authorization 2 seconds after they call , you are screwed"

I take this to mean they call you, and you have 2 seconds to get the authorization. But then there is this.

"They call with authorization code in 2 seconds !
310 area code"

I take this to mean that 2 seconds after you submit your post on CL that you get a phone call with an automated authorization code?

Remember I am thick skulled and hard headed, just trying to get a handle on this.

b-

Wake up and smell the coffee people. CL SUCKs!  Smart people avoid it like a bad STD!!!

Been there...DONE that! How do you think I got started? Some of my oldest clients are from CL. AND they are reputed RS2K members.
My reviews speak for themselves!

1- Phone verification does not stop a legitimate escort who makes a living by getting clients through advertising on CL

2- Phone verification may not stop all the rip-offs and scammers from posting on CL, but will reduce the number of such posts.

3- Phone verification will stop black mailers and assholes who have no life and nothing better to do than abusing CL for fucking with innocent people's lives.

What do the entire above mean?

The increase of public's trust in CL, we now may visit CL more often and legit escorts may get more clients, knowing the chances we get ripped off or busted by LE are now less than before.

Isn't that something to be proud of?

Please do a little thinking before rushing into conclusion and getting emotional.

Not disrespecting, just turning the lights on.

Go on CL and try it, You can even post a "Shout out to CL" for their new policy.

go through the whole process and find out how it works by yourself, even if you do not feel comfortable giving your number to them, still try this without giving your number which I assume is the last step ( of course it would not help any if it is the first!)

What you say?

I have gotten plenty of poontang on CL and all the other boards of ill repute.  You have to be brain dead to fall for most of these scammers that are posted there.  If you are brain dead, I think it is the proper Darwinian thing to do; falling for scams.  If you fall and can't get up, press your life alert button hanging around your neck.  Once you are back up, proceed to the next scam.  Repeat until dead.

Yes there are scum bags, crack whores, and thugs on cl but there are also diamonds in the ruff and lots of ladies with 9 and 10 ratings adv on there also
i posted this this afternoon and it went away, WHY?

Although I don't know as much as you do, I still can tell:

1- Your response is absolutely irrelevant to my post.

2- A "Dead Brain" is simply a "Moron" in a shiny gift wrap. As far as I know if you are a moron you can't hobby.

3- You do not have to be a moron (Dead brain) to fall for a scam. Every body falls for scam; No matter how smart you are you may fall for a scam pulled by someone smarter than you.

4- The CL's problem is not just LE, or scam, there is also a section on CL called "Raves and Rants" which only 10% of messages are posted with good intentions, the rest are the bull shit that losers and assholes post to attack and defame innocent people.

These were the results of analyzing your "complicated trigonometry" by doing the simple math.

Now about earlier post which from your response it is obvious that I was not clear enough.

This is not about teaching a moron how to drive a car; it is about trying to cure someone's fear of driving, hoping that once the fear is gone he considers driving himself instead of asking for a ride from others.


If I still make no sense to you, then I apologize for my bad English as it is my second language.

looks like the webcam and phonesex bots are gone !!!

... I currently have multiple listings available for remote Floridian real estate at great prices.  All of it free from the swamp ape, so no worries about mythical creatures.  Some lots as big as 1.25 acres and there's plenty of Spanish moss!  Such a deal!

I looked every where on web, could not find it on ebay or eros either,... I wish I knew you have one, this is awsome I will definitly see her, does it come with warranty? What if I don't have a prescription?

PS: I enjoyed the debate, I hope you did too,.. how much did you pay for it? lol

Now the freebie site is keeping records. Damnit. I don't advertise on places that want too much of my info. I don't want my info linked to advertising for this... Email, fine, but certainly not a phone number. Too bad. I doubt it'll slow anyone down, though...

I agree with the new phone verification for cl erotic as I am a legit provider who was being stalked and flagged by someone daily for months in NNJ.  I had to post without a phone number, asking for inquires through cl, without a pic or this person would find the post immediately.  Since the verification started the first day I was flagged 6 times the 2st day only once and now my post stays up, the person who was harassing me well their ip address was probably suspended from cl.  I haven't had to post again.  I also notice that there is only about100 posts per 12 hrs peroid now and there use to be 150 a hour in NNJ.  lookslike we got rid of a lot of scams, spams and harassment.

Anybody who is up to no good would be using an untraceable pre-paid cell phone anyway...
