    People on kijiji that put SOLD on the ad instead of removing it. Like wtf.
    Yea I don’t get where that came from. Maybe it was from the old days when you had the autotrader mags and the magazine company would put sold across an ad. But anyone with half a brain knew that was an “advertise here because our cars sell” marketing tactic.....

    Yeah, that drives me nuts as well. Is the point to show off to kijiji viewers that they sold their 91 firebird for $4500? "Take that lowballers..sold!!"

    I haven't posted anything in a while, but last time I did, the only way to remove your ad was to change the price field to "sold".

    I'm assuming dummies are just getting their wires crossed, nothing more nothing less.

    You have been able to delete ads for years. Its just laziness.

    You sure? I’ve been on kijiji since the beginning and can’t remember ever having issues. Maybe in the very beginning? I know for sure it’s at least been 5 years that you could

    On kijiji when you’re done with your ad you delete it, the select the reason, either you sold it or decided not to sell and that’s it for removing the ad

    I have another one. People who use abbreviations in posts like they think everyone knows what they're saying. This goes for beyond and really any other social media site.

    Mamil is the one that I had to look up recently, I'm just not sure if my life is more enriched because I now know what a mamil is. Biggest issue was I had to put my fucking cane down to look up mamil and I guess that maybe enriched my life for but a fleeting moment.
    Will fuck off, again.

    Trim that shit, geez I wish I could find the picture of that baller level nose hair trimmer that some beyond member bought and posted pictures of. And then the typical beyond debate that followed.

    I had to look it up as I've never heard it before. My first guess was some kind of Filipino dessert. I was way off.

    People using breaking/breaks/break where they should be using braking/brakes/brake. I guess normal idiots can be excused but not on beyond.

    My only guess is some people mispronounce tonneau as ‘tun-oh’ then people hear that and think they’re saying tunnel????????

    Kind of like people saying climatic rather than climactic, or irregardless rather than regardless.

    I always wonder if this is auto correct? I see it all the time also.
