Join Discussion Forums on Craigslist

1. Log onto Craigslist (see Resources below).

2. Click on 'Discussion Forums' and choose the forums that appeal to you.

5. Create your 'handle' using any combination of upper and lowercase letters and numerals 0 through 9.

6. Enter the scrambled identification code in the box below your handle. Click on 'Create Account' to finish.

7. Read the threads that interest you. To reply to a specific thread, click on the 'Reply' icon at the top of that thread when it's open.

8. Start a new thread if you want to start a new topic of conversation. Click on that option at the top of the list of threads in your open forum. Return later to see the responses to your post.

Tips & Warnings

• Some of the forums require visitors to register if they want to post. Registration is not required to just read the threads.
• If you run into any difficulties, visit the Craigslist Help Desk Forum (see Resources below).
• Some of the threads posted in these discussion forums can contain objectionable material. Craigslist won't allow pornography or lewd material, but some of these threads are very candid. If you offend easily, read the titles before opening the full thread. Keep children out of range until you're sure of a particular forum's content.
• When reading a forum with multiple threads, you may want to go to the beginning of the discussion to be able to put the most recent threads in context. Scroll down to the bottom of the forum list of threads to replay the ongoing conversation.
