There are some people in this world who get joy from life just by making other people miserable and the perfect place for someone like this to get their thrills is Craigslist.
Go read the posts over at DontEvenReply.com and you’ll see what I’m talking about.
Basically, what the guy who runs this site does, is find posts on Craigslist, acts like someone who’s genuinely interested and then completely pisses the ad poster off after that.
I have to admit that the conversations that occur on this site are hilarious, but I sure would be pissed too if I became his target.
What I can’t stand are highly competitive people. You will notice this quite a bit in the computer section. People will kill to make a sale, and will even manipulate the text of your postings and re-post them to make you look like an idiot and so that they get the sale. This has happened to me more than once. Yesterday, some assclown even posted a prank posting stating that I was selling stolen goods just to piss me off. I immediately reported the bozo and down his little prank went. What really sucks are all of the software pirates who post laptops with Windows 7 or Windows 8 “pre-installed” on them for less than $100. It pisses me off because any intelligent person knows that the copy of Windows is PIRATED and it takes business away from honest re-sellers and refurbishers. Funny enough, people love to hate the honest people, yet nothing ever happens to the crooks. In my opinion, Craigslist is nothing but a haven for assholes, and I personally am considering alternatives.
I see what you’re talking about on Craigslist all the time JimBob. People can be so petty.
