Outwitting Craigslist "Ghosting"

Yesterday I posted an ad to Craigslist for my 86 300SDL. It appears as if I've been "ghosted." I'm told that the ad is successfully created. However, when I go to the front page or try to search, it doesn't show up. As this is the fourth Benz I've advertised over the last eight months, I'm sure that's why some automated system is flagging me.

I tried creating a new account, but that didn't work. At that point I'm still using the same content and the same IP address. Then I tried a new account with virtually no content in the ad. So far this has worked. Now I'm going to go back and revise the content....we'll see how long I last!
