Just a thought - the only thing that has some concerned is that even tho you may be (at present) running a site with "free" listings, if there is a charge to locate some of them in a featured space, then it really is a business site, with proceeds to you or whomever, and you should get the correct status to work your business here on rennlist. Likewise, I am guessing that you will start to sell ads and gain revenue once you hit certain "hit " metrics with the site.
It's all good - nobody has an issue with anybody running a business. What has some thinking less charitably about what you are apparently doing is that the rennlist rules require you to be a sponsor in order to promote your business. I get the sense that the message about your site (both here and on bird) is being very carefully parsed so that you can adapt it at any time to a different model (which is fine, that's your business), but do so without having to pay up here. If you are using us to beta test your model before going to market, tell us. Don't play us for rubes.

Fail, I'm not 928sRus but thanks for playing. How about you address my concerns instead of being snarky.

I apologize for making that mistake. I had assumed that, since you had http://www.928srus.com/ in your signature line, that you were associated in a business way with 928sRUs.

Assuming things is rarely the correct, intelligent thing to do, don't you think?

I am leaving for a short trip, be back Tuesday. Try not to make any assumptions about that, and enjoy the free listings.

Difference between us, if you ask me a question I'll answer it. Not deflect, write some other rambling comment or try and change the subject. Care to try again? I just post your comments and wonder what they may be about. Unless you've been caught in a lie, why would you not?

Enjoy your trip.

Other sites like this have been taken down by the Craigslist legal department by threats of filing a lawsuit.

Trying to be objective about this, Michael doesn't make it easy, what with his reluctance to disclose. IIRC there already is a search engine out there that does this. Perhaps this is easier to use, have fun looking at the pictures. Be that as it may, the database is Craigs List. Lots of bottom feeders on there. Lots of dead ends. Do your research, selling and/or buying is not necessarily fun. Are you willing to take time off from work and drive 500 miles to check out those fuzzy pictures?

Also there are the usual caveats about going alone to a CL appt.

There could be that one gem on there, the fire sale, the divorce-forced liquidation. YMMV.

LOL, maybe I should search for one on how to deal with PM's containing bad words and the threats of violence.

Well played Jim.

Please - don't be modest - I'm certain there are hundreds, maybe thousands of additional ways that we are different.

If you have a personal question you want to know about, please, feel free to PM me. If I feel it is important for you to have the answer, I will of course not hesitate to inform you of such.

Welcome aboard!
I'm sure you've figured out it's not the Shark Tank for nothing.
Don't mind Sean, he's a great guy, he just needs someone to throw hand grenades at him the rest of his life.
