It amazes me to see so many guys on Craigslist posting notes like “don’t write me if a you’re a bot” or “only real women, no spammers!” Endearing, perhaps, but a waste of preventive effort, because bots don’t care if you want to hear from them or not. They’re not human – they’re bots. They don’t read the content of your message. They just send out spam en masse, to everyone. If you post on CL (or Twitter, for that matter) you run the risk of encountering spam bots. Boys, your time is better spent writing a post that actually describes yourself and what you’re looking for (more than 2 lines). Then maybe you’ll get something out of it besides just spam.
