Lesson #3

95% of responses you get from your posts are spam.

Depressing, isn't it? We've established that almost all female posts are fake, and almost all responses you get from your posts are fake. What a fucking waste of time this is!!! Fear not my friends, we will be making good use of the leftover 5%, as you shall soon learn.

But for now, yes, expect most of the responses you get to be crap. Most of them will contain links to different dating websites they are trying to get you to sign up for. Please don't fall for it and reinforce them. Just delete and move on. You'll notice the tone of the spam email.....very fake sounding, and almost always contains a link. Sometimes they do get crafty though, and start with a legitimate sounding response. Then when you respond back, they will finally show their hand and respond again pimping a website.

Craig's List has tried different things to throw off these fools (word verification, flagging, etc), but so far to no avail. As annoying at is it to have to delete all of these useless emails, don't lose hope. If you construct your post properly (see Lesson #2), you will find the diamonds in the rough. Perhaps it's time to share some more of the diamonds I have found to provide some inspiration.....
