by cooperalex2004 August 10, 2008 11:58 AM PDT: Appears to be working now but only on certain pages. When I click an ad it loads but no text from the ad appears. Why is it so hard to keep the site up like every other website?; Like this Reply to this comment

Cali is close enough to Seattle's Hub and we can't still get connected. Why , oh why , oh why can't a simple webpage / website work in this day and frickin age?; Like this Reply to this comment


by Demolition August 10, 2008 1:09 PM PDT: It appears that all of Craigslist Canada (craigslist.ca) is still down. The main page appears, but clicking any regional link results in the "Unable to process request, please try again." message.; Like this Reply to this comment

You are complaining about a FREE website being down??? Maybe you should ask for your money back. :) Better yet, take the outage and your withdrawal anxiety as a sign that you need to push away from the computer and get out into the real world.

I have seen people addicted to heroin, and I have seen people addicted to what I call The Idiot List....Same symptoms...I bet there are people freaking out across the nation because they are separated from their "friends" on the message boards. Dorks can't get "dates" for 150 "roses"..... Cheapskates can't find a free sofa....Socially retarded people can't talk to their "friends" on the rants and raves board.

Why do people get so hooked on craigslist? Are there that many people that are friendless and lacking in socialization skills?

Get lives, people.....; Like this Reply to this comment

by trahob December 16, 2008 5:00 PM PST: Craigs List has a lot of fraud going on
When you publish someone as a fraud your listing is gone within minutes after it is published.
Come on ,like the old saying goes "you don't get something for nothing"
I think ebay is the way to go if you want buyer/seller protection.
Most sellers and buyers on Craigs are honest but you get the A--Holes that ruin it for everyone else
