I just want to not be heckled every time I go to the site. It's annoying, and time consuming.

Craigslist and ebay put a major hurt on the newspaper business by taking away their honey pot. The classified ads alone in the early 2000's were 40% of a newspapers revenue.

In 2000, classified ads accounted for about 40 percent of newspaper industry ad revenue. In 2012, classifieds made up about 18 percent of the ad revenue in an industry that was barely half the size it had been a decade earlier.

Sad to say I don't use it much anymore. The last time I went on there was during the runoff election.
