Does anyone know how to find auditions, for acting or commercial? Not a spam though! Spams are all over the place, so I just want to know someplace that is possible. I'm a teen, and want to act so bad so, please help!!!!!

Don't use Craigslist. It's so iffy, it's just not worth it. If you do it anyway, take a responsible adult and some pepper spray with you just in case and be careful if they ask you to change your clothes at their location.
Where are you located? If you're in the US or Canada my best suggestions without an agent are backstage.com and actorsaccess.com. You can also see if your state has a film alliance/commission/society etc. Sometimes they post audition information for projects filming locally. For theatre auditions you can go to check out those sites or http://www.actorsequity.org/castingcall/... If you find the audition on the Equity site, you still may be able to go, as long as their not taking appointments from equity actor's only. On backstage.com you have to pay to get all of the info, but the initial search is free and you may be able to see enough info to find out the rest on your own without paying. On actorsaccess the account and the breakdowns (audition info) is free, but to submit yourself electronically for the auditions you have to pay. The sites are all legit.
Backstage and ActorsAccess both have tons of different types of auditions, the amounts depend on your location. TV, film, commercials, student films, etc. Lots of stuff to build a resume on. You still need to start with training. Get into acting classes first and foremost.
good luck

yeah, be careful of craigslist.
you can go to yahoo groups and type in keywords for groups like.... acting, auditions, casting, etc. Also use your city, for example Auditions in Los Angeles.
There is a casting newspaper but it's not available everywhere. It's called BackStage or on the West Coast it's called BackStageWest. You can also find them online: www.backstage.com
I've gotten many movies, etc. from that paper
