GR Craig's List

[Titan!]

Ijust answered 8 CL personal ads. How many do you think will come back as spam ?

I'm thinking 6 out of 8.



How many do you think will actually result in a face to face meeting ?

I say zero.

But I'm happily optimistic.

[potthole]

Asking to take photos?

[Titan!]

No, dating. Women Seeking Men.

[beckyp]

Asking to take photos?

that made me laugh. nice.

[Titan!]

I'll give it a day or two and then report the results, but as of right now, at least one of them was definetly a spam bot.

Sigh.

[upperdeckercourt]

I've done that too. I responded to two so far. One was real (face to face meeting too) and one was a robot. My odds are good so far!

[Titan!]

3 spam bots and 5 no replies so far....

[upperdeckercourt]

Damn those spam bots. I'm still trying to figure out which ones are real. Some are pretty obvious, but the one suckered me right in.

[Titan!]

Aaaaannnnnnd! The grand total, was:

8 emails sent to potential romantic liasons

3 emails recieved from spam programs with links to pay dating sites.

and... nothing else.

It was more likely an offer to take their picture.

No I use myspace, and modelmayhem.com and cyberstalker.com, and imsittinginthebushedoutsideyourhouse.com and heybabytakeyourclothesofwhileiadjustthefocus.com and whowantstoshowtheirtataasforcash.com for that.

Biff are you jealous cause I've never asked you to pose for me ?

No I sent a link to my myspace page which has more than one photo, which is probably the major cause of the lack of response, After all I am one ugly dude.

[upperdeckercourt]

Totally gave up on CL. Maybe I'm jaded, but each one seems fake to me now.
