You have to love when you piss off some other photographer, or they are trying to get models, and flag all your ads on CL.

I find most of the time it happens I notice this..

1. Some photographer contacts me because they see some post on CL. I give them a little info. Never heard from them again. All ads flagged.

2. Some area photographer looking for the same thing I am flags my ads. I go look in the category, and see someone with a paraphrased ad looking for the same as I was, paying less then I am.

Sucks but why dont you pay them a visit when they are flagging your ads and are even in the same area as you?
You dont even have to beat them up i guess, just dropping by and asking friendly why they flag your ads all the time. Most of the time those people will shit their pants and it wont happen again..

Someone who really likes a church *cough*, likes to flag and post negative responses to such posts in my area.

My thought exactly.

Well, it's never a coincidence. One of the two, or both of the above two situations happen every time.

Some photographer contacts me about work. I tell them to piss off. Ads flagged.

Or some photographer wants some models, can't pay as much as me, and flags my ads. I go check, and there is an ad looking for the same thing, but paying less.

Craiglist is a waiste of time.

Ads stays there 5 min and gets immediately flagged by some idiots.

Normally, when I do not get one of the two situations above, my ads age out the 45 days nicely. I get some nice recruiting action from CL. Not as much as MS, or some others channels. But I get some of the most willing skeezers from CL.

It's worth the hassle to keep trying here. Eventually the shit heads get bored with playing silly reindeer games. Especially when I go back through and get all their ads removed in a few days.
