Craigslist Advertiser Reviews

[QUOTE=RocketDork;2977470]Wendy asked me to give her info out a couple of months ago. I gave it to at least 25 guys. Wendy said guys would schedule and not show up or lowball her. So Wendy is giving me some crap (when only I was doing her and some guys a favor) about the situation. I don't want to screw up my deal with Wendy. Just my $. 02. Rocket Dork.[/QUOTE]It goes both ways. I connected a hobby with a UTR a year or two ago. She got $$ 5 out of him and he got nothing in return! He emailed me the next day, quite upset, asking for his donation back. I felt sorry for him, but there was no way I could make her return his $. When I confronted her about it she said the guy was very nervous, sweaty, reeked of cigarettes, etc.

That he was so nervous that he couldn't get it up. So I heard two sides of the story. Though I assumed there was some truth in both. Couldn't figure out how he'd give her donation and receive nothing, unless se cash and dash, which she ddnt.

I like to pass along info to my hobby buds, but that put me in an uncomfortable situation. And I really hate it when girls talk about other hobbies, their sessions together.

A couple friends that saw her were happy, saying she wasn't the average p4 p type. But I stopped doing friend intros with her after that experience.

There's always inherent risk in passing info. And you certainly don't want to burn ties with a good girl either.

Gave $10 for taking her time and left. I was a nice guy back then. Had to drive over 1 hour to get there. But I also met a real sweetheart, a pro who I developed a relationship with, we were friends she spoke limited English, I spoke limited Spanish, got lots of freebies even on the clock never done until both were satisfied even if it went over. And everything was included /.

Like many on this forum I used to have some good success on CL not much anymore. And I'm here to find out from experts like Rocket Dork who can still milk the CL system to work wonders for them. What steps could I take to minimize my time investment and save added aggravation? One, do you respond to most posts that advertise on wfm casual encounters or you have a way to filter out genuine ones out of spam. Two, which produces better results. Posting regular ads or responding to ads? Three, how to quickly build trust from the initial contact to closing the deal. How much personal info sharing is recommended?

I looked at all the ads today and 99% were spam. I spent alot of time reading ads, its a daily thing for me when I need new friends. It is my hobby. Right now I have 5 friends I can meet. I have enough for a while. With CL friends you learn they come and go. I found my college senior and am spending most of my time and money with her. She is one in a million. After she moves on I will start the hunt again. Sorry, can't share her info. Rocket Dork.

Thanks, RD. You are very correct. It is really a waste land. And, chance of finding something of value is one in a million. I thought I had good leads and after exchanging few emails I was directed to craigslistverification service. [URL]http://crgsverify.com[/URL] Fuck. What is that. She kept insisting that it is totally free and just to keep her safe from CL killers. LOL.

Place them in as many categories as possible. Not just one place, but in M4 W, Casual Encounters, even Platonic or Gigs. The catch is that I'll add a dash of spicy humor. I'll make my ad stand out with double-entendres, such as 'Seeking a Toothy Technician' or 'Hiring Attractive and Fit Language Coaches. ' The best Craigslist ads are the ones that inspire intelligent responses and stay just under the radar of the censors. This helps to filter out the trash and avoid getting your ad flagged. It also lets savvy women know you're not a cretin living in a van. Granted, I've had to filter out plenty of ghetto hustlers and drug addicts, but at the end of the season, I'll have found some real gem stones.

[QUOTE=MrCharmo;2976733]A friend told me about an Asian girl that's been looking like crazy. 33 yo on division. Tight body, face ok. Anyone else hit her yet? I'm not sure if she's worth a visit.[/QUOTE]The consensus is that the 33 yo Korean that's on division is dead dud in the sack. Not recommended, and certainly not for the $$$ she'll request. Look elsewheres, hobbies.

Brw- No, not a SW, for those who have asked.

I know I am not telling anyone here that already knows the Craigslist is a complete waste of time now. I just wish there was an easier way to flag the fake ads. What I mean is something as easy as Windows where you can pick multiple files to copy or delete all at once. It would be so much easier to flag all the fake ads. Meaning just about every single one on there.

The payoff isn't worth the effort and time if you're looking at the W4 M section in Casual Encounters.

I've been looking into this over a period of time and here's what's going on. Basically what has happened is that spammers have created thousands of free e-mail accounts and each account has created ads using a bot script. The bot runs this all automatically, opens e-mail accounts, posts and reposts prewritten ads, etc. Whenever one of their ads is flagged down, the script immediately recreates the ad and reposts it. If an e-mail address gets banned, there are thousands more doing the same thing and CL sysops can't close the loop on all of them (from time to time they'll identify a set of bad IP addresses that are responsible for most of the spam and hard block them ut the spammers always find a new way in). So CL has basically given up on dealing with it.

The other thing the spammers bots do is flag legit ads. Additionally, pimps flag each others ads when they see them. So that's why you can look in W4 M, scroll through 20 spam ads, see one that looks like it's from a legit escort, and discover it's been flagged while all the spam is left up.

CL jumped the shark years ago. I've had ads running in M4 W on and off for a couple years and mostly get spam responses, or responses from guy men pretending to be women so they can get men to send them photos or talk dirty to them while they jerk off. There are a couple women who always respond to my ads who are real but are extremely unattractive. Then there are a few women who respond and then never follow through.

Pass on the obsolete and destroyed Craigslist and basically just keep it here. G.

In it's heyday Craigslist was great when there was an Erotic listing. But thanks to the Boston Massage Killer Craigslist isn't great for finding girls to play with anymore.

CL does work but requires alot of work. I saw my college senior this morning and I met her through CL. But it is a lot of work (which I don't mind) Rocket Dork.

Agree to everything said as well as found it interesting and now understand why the spammers have taken over! I am an old dinosaur that started w / windows 64! Ha! But yeah again found 3 legit situations after much shit! I know that most all that post here know this, however many legit escort ads and pix are hijacked and used on other sites. For instance in a personal situation I used sip sap which is mostly all if not all phony pix and info unless the the girl is just above ugly and found a really hot young petite blonde. I got a hold of her via email but she was a 900 # jack off girl. Like the fool that I am I tried to relay to her that her info had been completely ripped off and was being used on sip sap, but of course no good deed goes unpunished!

Saw my MILF this morning. GFE as usual. No Greek this time but probably next time. CL works but it takes some effort. Rocket Dork.
