When this ad sounds like every other post on http://sfbay.craigslist.org/cpg/ http://sfbay.craigslist.org/cpg/ then I'm not sure what to think.
When I was much younger and eager, dealing with posts similar to this always ended up wasting time. So, sure, I'm might just be making an ass out of myself.
But I would love for the OP -- who, mind you, has no discernible history to this community -- to prove me wrong rather than you to quip about my writing.
- RyanGWU82 18y agoOh my god, that Craigslist category is awful! I only clicked on one ad, the very first one listed -- http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/cpg/839620808.html http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/cpg/839620808.html -- and it's worse than anything I could have imagined! "Want to build your portfolio? ... I have a vision, a blog and a domain name but need help creating/setting up and showing me how to maintain my web site. It will incorporate Web 2.0/Web 3.0 features so you'll get a chance to showcase your skills. ... Compensation: no pay"

- DenisM 18y agoThat post is awful, but the other 6 out of 7 for today are reasonable requests. I would not call this an "awful category" just based on that.
- DenisM 18y ago1 out of 7 posts on that link asks for someone to work for free for them. Ok, that's audacious. OP however has not expressed or implied any such things or even inequality. The way I read his post is that he is looking for a partner of equal strength, and supposedly share. He's even willing to relocate. How is that demeaning to the prospect partner? Your assumptions are based solely on your _other_ experience and are rather unfounded.
