How cute I miss those days!

I hit it again......come on folks, it's not down yet, we need some more hits.

**caseysmom** · 03-02-2010, 10:25 PM

Tried to hit it from home but its gone.

**wombat2u2004** · 03-02-2010, 10:47 PM

Yeah, it's gone now.
How many times has it got to be hit ????

Craigslist won't tell you how many times an ad has to be flagged before it gets removed. I wish there was a better answer, but I suspect they don't announce the number of times to avoid nuisance flagging.

Bummer.

Why is your ad getting flagged? Because you're breeding, not rehoming.

All gone!

**Lady's Human** · 03-08-2010, 08:26 PM

And another.

Shame, too, they're mastiff puppies.

Mate, am I right clicking on "Prohibited" ?
That's what I've been doing so far.

When I click on each of the links in post #1 I get

This posting has been flagged for removal
(The title on the listings page will be removed in just a few minutes.)

The one in #54 specifically says "please don't flag" ...

How do I recognize a byb on Craigslist? Is this one?

Hmmmmm....that might be an alternative way for millers to get around us.
It does say "contact for more information".
Could be genuinely trying to sus out good homes, could also be a way to inform people that the pups cost X amount of dollars.
A hard one.
What do you reckon LH ???

They say please don't flag to try and avoid getting flagged, even though they know they aren't supposed to be advertising on CL.

For the most part, someone legitamately looking to rehome an accidental little will post a fee, mainly low to cover the cost of vaccinations and spay/neuter.

The post you linked is almost definitely a BYB. No stated fee, details upon contact, etc.
