A public service announcement for those who may not know:
Back in the Craigslist days, all of the ads were "live", meaning if you saw a new ad appear, that meant the girl had just posted it.
Backpage.com doesn't work like that. When you pay for your ad, you select how many times you want it posted and at what interval (the more times you get it reposted, the cheaper the cost). The system then automatically reposts it at your selected interval, but at a totally random time of the day.
So sometimes you'll see a "new" ad go up at midnight on a Saturday, but that does NOT mean that the girl just posted it (she could have posted it on a Tuesday morning, two months ago!)
This has happened to me a few times, including tonight. I'm in my jammies <s>doing homework</s> surfing perb, and the phone keeps buzzing with a bunch of angry guys going "what do you mean you're not working, you JUST POSTED AN AD 30 SECONDS AGO!!"
So yeah, I just thought I would mention that.
