Clownspider,
I think what people are suggesting is that you set aside an initial sum of money for payouts in escrow so that they know that you are serious and have the funds available to pay people for doing this work for you.
Nobody is suggesting that you escrow 40 cents at a time for each user.
Not trying to step on toes, just trying to clarify. Now I'm back to work wrapping up a website for a client.
Best,
Cynthia
Again with your ideas clearing things up! lol Thank you Cynthia. How exactly is it an escrow then if I have no intended recipient for a larger lump sum. No conditions to meet for it's release to any particular person? What you are describing is an insurance bond, not an escrow. I think I will just ask people if they are ok with me publicly naming them as someone who I have paid, including you. You have 1 verified post, may I use your name after I pay you? I might as well pay you now, manually and anyone else who has a verified post, and ask them. Just to build a list of people who are paid, with a blockchain reference link. If I make a list of outgoing payments, that should help. Any Bitcoin insurance bonding recommendations?

You're putting up the initial sum of money (bitcoin) as the pool from which you will be paying people for the work they did. Even if you didn't use one of the escrow services here on the board (and there are many) just having the funds set aside in a publicly viewable wallet would go a long way towards gaining the trust of these folks. For example - I am managing a Twitter campaign for one of the Bitcoin dice sites. Rather than use escrow, they deposited 2 BTC into a newly created wallet on blockchain.info. The balance of that wallet is publicly viewable by anyone. Each when when I send payments, I send them from that wallet, from that initial funding pool. Make sense? Best, Cynthia

Cynthia you rock. I just learned that blockchain.info has an API, and noticing that you are a web developer you know what all kinds of fun features I can use that for with craigslistapex.com Thank you! So I have set up a funds in a publicly viewable wallet. (All wallets are publicly viewable from my understanding via the blockchain.) Viewable here: https://blockchain.info/address/1CMndoGA1HmYdZzKPsgQZjWWUwzB1sKfpDI will send payments from that wallet, and because it has an API, I can make them automated. Yay

Automated Cron script runs at the top of every hour to auto verify posts that are 23 hours old. (The rule is written as a post must be 24 hours, but if a person posted at 3:01pm it would be 23hours 59 minutes old at 3:00pm the next day, resulting in the script not checking it until 4pm when it is 24 hours 59 minutes old, so to be fair I give people a 1 hour advantage.)

I have only had the spare time to to post one, but I got paid Hi. I think you have 3 more, 19 hours old or so. Unfortunately I checked and noticed they are flagged out. I wish I knew a way to increase the chances, and decrease the possibility of being flagged. One person posted 3, and was extremely hostile and angry with me because he was flagged. He said it was my fault for bad leadership because he did everything the site said to do, and still got flagged. Naturally he blames me, and feels that "all his hard work" (all 3 posts) was a huge loss, and it's all my fault, etc etc. And he swore I owe him or else. Blackmail over $1.20! =) lol I don't know if he even posted at all, he didn't bother leaving URLs like you did. So I might need to think of something about this flagging problem.

I'm not sure what is causing them to be flagged either. It isn't your fault if someone on CL flags an ad though.

I wish that other guy understood. I had to ban him because he wanted to try again but made threats if it didn't work out for him. Nobody needs hostile people like that.
