oneano 8 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Im posting to craigslist with ubot, as Im sure everyone knows craigslist a beast. I think that I have everything right to clear my tracks, see this image. http://screencast.com/t/pcdSLS0Lg Im clearing my cooks, flash cookies and deleting the flash cookie folder, but Im still having trouble with craigslist. Posting manually with Firefox, I do not have these issues. any good tips or guidelines that I may be missing? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Legend 181 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 What kind of trouble are you having? http://ubotstudio.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oneano 8 Posted December 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 As Im sure everyone knows craigslist is a beast. Their are several ways that ads can be taken down by craigslist, some ways the system takes them down, other ways it is by the users. What is happening to me is that I am getting the flagged removed message before the ads are live. So the system is flagging the ads since I am some how setting off a trigger. I want to make sure that I am doing everything possible with ubot to cover my tracks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Praney Behl 314 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 I think what you can do is use the set user agent command and select FF in it.. Hope it helps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rolf5th 0 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 I think what you can do is use the set user agent command and select FF in it.. Hope it helps. Or better yet, try to put a random user agent every account, or if you have to login in to one account multiple times, i guess you have to assign 1 IP one user agent to one respective account.

oneano 8 Posted December 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 When do I set the user agent in a script? Before I flush cookies? Before I go into my loop? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnB 255 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 Before any navigation occurs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Legend 181 Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 You might also want to check into changing proxies as you go as well... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oneano 8 Posted December 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 What about setting the http referer? Is that also done before I navigate? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
seonid 4 Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 What about setting the http referer? Is that also done before I navigate? At craiglist level using proxies isn't good enough ( even high socks ), I recommend to use vpn. And yes http referer and user agent to confuse a human editor by emulating human behaviour.

oneano 8 Posted December 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 I use a something similar to a VPN for my posting and Im going to assume that we should stay on the topic of ubot. How do I set up a referer? I typically navigate to the login page, then navigate to the city page accounts.craigslist.org orangecounty.craigslist.org Where do I want the referer? Before I navigate to the account and then again before I navigate to the city? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnB 255 Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 Yes, all those settings go before the navigation (once you navigate the data is already read by the site) John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oneano 8 Posted December 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 I will want to set the referrer after I have cleared cookies correct? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnB 255 Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 The order won't matter as long as it all happens before the navigate. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oneano 8 Posted December 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 thanks JohnB for all the advice! Now, when can I expect this to be fixed? http://ubotstudio.com/forum/index.php?/topic/8572-set-referer-browser-eror-4089/page__p__43669__hl__%2Bset+%2Breferrer__fromsearch__1#entry43669 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stack paper 0 Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Ghosting happens for a number of reasons. Check your adcopy, pvas, proxies, etc.. my guess would be IP or adcopy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yea, there are dozens of variables when it comes to craigslist. I just want to make sure that I have all of the covered with ubot. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
