Since Was Doing/posting Nothing Inapprop. How To Get Ip Addr Un-blacklisted??

I was trying to post a piece of furniture and apparently hit something I shouldn't have on my keyboard and I got this IP address blocked message. I was literally in the middle of typing the ad when the message popped up. I use Craigslist for my rental properties, etc. and have never had a problem. How can I appeal to Craigslist to get my IP address un-blacklisted?

Sorry for your problems, but using a contact form as suggested in the previous answer will almost surely get you nowhere. Craigslist has a tiny staff and such communications are not given individual attention.

Craigslist states:

Posts may be removed or omitted from index pages and search results by automated systems, CL staff, or community moderation -- for non-compliance with terms of use, site guidelines, and/or community norms.

It's not possible from the information you've provided to discern the source of the problem. And it might not be possible under any circumstances; Craigslist's determinations often seem arbitrary.

You may be able to solve the issue with the use of a Web proxy, as offered free at http://www.zend2.com/. Fellow Help Owl volunteer smcclurken has additional suggestions here.

You will need to contact Craigslist from here.
