Human Detector (Verification Word)
The use of 3rd party software for automated posting on craigslist is increasingly the source of lots of complaints and an unrelenting cause of periodic server overload. These tools are typically used to post hundreds (sometimes thousands) of times per day, often with the intent of keeping postings at the top of the list.
In order to get a better handle on this situation, we’re adopting a “human detector” verification process in selected categories. This process requires a human eye to read a word from a computer-generated image, and then type it into a submission form. Sorry for the hassle, but we’re running out of ideas on how to cope with this problem. Your account is not verified. Verify it now:
