Why is the Craigslist personals full of bots?

I go on the Craigslist personals to find a woman to talk to, date, etc. and it's full of bots who send spam emails. It's very disappointing.

    Well it depends on their cache catcher (those things that make you type stuff up to verify you are a human) which prevents stuff like bots to come on there and post spam. Also, if it has a filter which catches if the said bot keeps "spamming". However, if they're emailing you, then it's most likely not a bot and just someone trying to promote a website. ~Grimmy~

    Its because there is no measure to stop bots from posing on craigslist.

    Try www.oasisactive.com

    Its a free dating site.

    daftpunk, I'm an attractive 25 year old college grad who was a homebody, never went out. I met my boyfriend on craigslist when replying to his ad....i was just tried of being alone and didn't want to go out to meet someone or pay for dating sites. He is an extremely smart man with a masters and treats me like a princess. We've been dating for 5 months and we're as normal as can be. So every now and then good fish bite. we're proof. just hang in there.

    Craigslist is the bottom of the barrel when it comes to dating. You really shouldn't be surprised. There are plenty of free services out there, raise your standards.
