The Problem: You post an ad on Craigslist to sell a legitimate product or service, but “the community” flags your ad as being “inappropriate” or “prohibited.” Why do they flag these ads, if they are legitimate ads, you ask? Good question. Turns out that a lot of people are of the opinion that all goods should be sold at or below cost.
The Solution: If you find your ad being flagged, simply use the same email that you used to post your ad to edit it every so often. Each time you edit the ad, the “flag counter” is reset, meaning that you need that the small minority of vigilante flaggers has to start at the beginning.
