What section are you listing in? That may have some bearing. Also I found late night posts are more likely to get flagged due to more people getting boozed effectOriginally Posted by easttexasscrapper

I'd go with mornings or daytime Shawn. I can't really say why it's getting flagged though really. I also don't know why they tell you it's a question for the scrap room, the same ones who tell you that post their questions out in the open forum.

Might try printing you some flyers (we have examples here) and passing around to the farmers and others, maybe even some business cards (home made).
Network with everyone you know, it'll take time but the scrap will come.

Far as the farmers house goes, I'd stop and ask if I was a mind to. Don't forget one very important step in approaching a country home. Honk! (and watch out for dogs ; ) I've often considered stopping at one place to ask, although I'm always headed somewhere when I go by there, and the first thing I think I'll say is, "I'm sure you've been asked this question before" or some variation of that

I just switched browsers from MS Explorer to Google Chrome. Chrome has a built-in spell checker and it has come in handy many times. I also like to read newspaper and magazine articles to get an idea of things like sentence structure and flow.
As for getting flagged, try posting in the Services section. I get flagged if I post in the Wanted section, but they leave me alone if I post in the Services section. That being said, I've had days where I've tried to sneak an ad in the "wrong" section and hope it stays up for an hour or two. I've had some luck that way. It's a hit-or-miss thing.
