I imagine some folks here post stuff on CraigsList. I have posted something once or twice, but I am trying to post something now and having an awful time of it. The bottom line is that it takes my right up to the alter....right when I am to push the "publish" button, then it tells me the posting will be blocked. At first I thought it was some misinterpretation of something I had typed in the body, so I tried deleting stuff, and got down to the point where the only word in the body was "Acoustic" and it still said it was to be blocked, There's absolutely no help or hint as to what the issue is.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks.

That is very odd!
The only things I can think of is they are finicky about putting your phone number in the body of the ad or maybe they were having a problem with the site when you were trying?

I got this figured out. I am real protective of my main personal email account. I don't give the address out to anyone who I have not established trust with. I use a service called MailExpire to create an alias to use until I establish that trust. I was using the MailExpire email address on my CL account and I guess they didn't like that.

No, they don't like that. Has to be personal/verifiable etc.

What are you trying to sell? Thanks.

Existing members influences include (but are not limited to) Grateful Dead, Traditional Bluegrass, Folk-Rock, Country, Reggae, & Jazz. Existing instrumentation includes Guitar, Mandolin, Fiddle, Banjo, Bass, Pedal Steel. Vocals (lead and/or harmony) a plus. Moderate gigging is planned.

I see the problem, you said "banjo" in an ad.

What's the difference between a banjo and an onion? No one cries when you chop up a banjo.
What's the difference between a banjo and a trampoline? No one takes their shoes off to jump on a banjo.

What's the difference between a banjo and a chainsaw?

You can tune up a chainsaw . . . and a chainsaw has dynamic range
