about 5 years ago, CL here for Vancouver was great....

now for example well not just my experience, but simply put, one just needs to take a look at all the changes that CL operators are implementing to weed out scammers and all the negative attention it's received lately from all sides about the scammers infiltrating the website literally.
I post a lot of sale stuff on CL and just in the last year alone, and from my memory there has been about 3 different identity confirmation tests that CL has rolled out, still has maybe put a small dent in the problem. My friends combined have sent out hundreds of resumes, qualified guys but only got a handful of callbacks let alone interviews.

Just last month I was look for apartments on there, sent out about 20 emails, 10 of them came back and 9 were fucking scammers... and this was in the PROPERTY RENTAL LISTINGS for fcks sake.... it really surprised me that it's gotten that bad. I've been sipping Craigs List haterade almost full time since then
