Abuse of Free Classified Ads

I had been hoping that with the change to a new website, those extremely annoying repeating classified ads (e.g., moving/carpentry, we buy used AC, buying used furniture/household items, etc.) would FINALLY CEASE. Frustratingly, these "abusers" are as quite active here as in the old site. QL Admins, please take note and, more importantly, please take appropriate ACTIONS.

Relying on a new and supposedly more secure system alone is not enough, if I may add, miklo123 and Good old joe. The "human factor" is still tops when it comes to maintaining a website's integrity, safety, functionality, and reliabilty.

I Totally agree, I am so fed up of these adverts. I see them plastered all over the classifieds section. What annoys me even more is in the rental section for accommodation so many advertisers putting up multiple post of the same accommodation with very little information. Most are Liars btw blatant liars. So far i have had so many bad experiences dealing with people from the South Indian continent. i have dealt with nearly 22 advertisers from Qatar Living to find that not one of them was honest in any aspect.
