Looks like Uncle Sam got a BJ for FS price and tore it all down! Everyone was kicked off.

I'm shocked and saddened.
That just breaks my heart for all the ladies that will be hurt by this. They should encourage their clients to migrate here.

Now I hope they don't pile in here with 60 specials and THIER "managers". Christ we got enough alerts already. Took a long time though. Surprised with the backing ( village voice exc.) And their lawyers...but it's been coming for a bit. Sorry to say I'm not sorry. Xxoo annie

There still a massage space under services for all the parlors and the rest will move to the "dating" sections. It is window dressing for some politicians to point and say, see what shut down the ones that explicitly say escorts.

I don't think so Annie. The personals on backpage hasn't been shut down. They will flood over there for the time being till that section gets shut down as well.

They have been doing that before the shutdown guessing to expand their client base.
This is so disappointing. Here's their official statement:

I kind of expect Craigslist personals to start blowing up too.

Well I use it with the same screening practices and price point... I am a dominatrix first and foremost.. This was my main advertising platform.. Rent ain't gonna pay itself.. Mthrfkkers
It's really sad what's happening. It shows how morals and more important that safety for a lot of people.

I advertised my FBSM services there and will be impacted by them shutting down the Adult section, even if the option of posting in other sections exist.

It's pushing us more and more underground. It makes no sense. This moral crusade baffles me.
