Hello, I am marketing on the Craigslist section for casual encounters. I am currently posting ads in 28 different cities, and I use 2 different e-mail addresses for each city. When I was posting in around 20 cities my ads would last for days, but now that I am posting in 28 cities they last an hour or so and then are mass flagged.
I know Craigslist is tougher on the casual encounters section now, but that is not it. I change my IP address daily so I know that is not it. I am thinking it may be time to change the e-mail addresses but they aren’t banned. Is there a certain number of ads you can post on one IP before Craigslist pulls your ads? I know it used to be 100 ads but Im thinking that might have been lowered. Any help would be much appreciated!
It is not from people flagging my ads. I get ads pulled from people flagging from time to time but this is a mass flagging. There is a limit of how many ads you can post per day per IP and it used to be around 100 but I think it has drastically lowered. I am wondering if 25 is the number.

no that has nothing to do with it, what is happening is other people are flaging your listing . PERIOD, the site sucks for that very reason,
if you are doing something someone else is they will flag you.

Hey,
There are programs and people/online businesses you can pay to mass flag others’ ads. People will do this to you if you are advertising the same thing as them. I use the same IP for 30 ads a day and don’t have a problem, so I don’t think that’s it.
