"What happened to Craigslist personals?" is probably what a lot of people will be wondering. Due to congress passing a law, H.R.1865, cl simply took them down...

I do wonder where a lot of the "working girls" are going to go. Some used cl to survive, just like redpage or whatever that website was called. But can't say I'll miss craiglist personals. I've met a few women from there, one flaked on me in Oakland. She drove by in a car covering her face in a passenger seat while I was waiting for her. The last woman I "met" off of there looked so different from her pictures, I drove off when she didn't recognize my car (THANK GOD!) And by the time she noticed me, I was already too far around the corner for her to do anything. She looked like a crack whore, and I'm not even over-exagarating.
And something tells me I didn't even have it that bad. I read stories of guys getting robbed by crazy women who brought their boyfriend/pimp/etc.. hiding in a bathroom, or others where women get in your car acting crazy and won't let you go unless you give them money. This is why I was very cautious when meeting people. 99% of the time, it was just trolls, hookers, or my messages simply got ignored. Cl personals was like a place for all the girls who were too ugly to get attention irl, men who can't get laid, working girls, or crazies. You'd find a decent woman there every now and then, but due to the amount of men flooding that site, chances of that happening was almost none.
I do wonder what website all these people will migrate to, though.
