		<description><![CDATA[None of you get the point. Give me the option to opt-out of ALL advertising, as I don&#039;t want ANY of you to get paid. Better yet, lets get back to basics... You shouldn&#039;t be allowed to push advertising at me unless I authorize it first. This whole &quot;Opt-Out&quot; mind set is just a way for you to bypass legal channels anyway. I pay for my equipment, connection, and connections, and I should be the only one that can push/pull data through them. You guys are costing me a fortune with my service provider by consuming most of my bandwidth and data allowances. STOP IT NOW!!! The users out here that have a clue are getting very close to taking action to shut you all down. In the near term we will fix it where you will have to pay us to show your ads. So... get ready to pay through the nose.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nice post.  Of course blocking by domain is a part solution, as if you block by domain to remove TFD you also lose that advertiser from publishing to market, however it seems that most TFD advertisers are the usual suspects so it is a very effective way around bar one or two.  Of course, you should not have to work around it either.

But I do agree about the decline in general even though I do not really suffer as compoundly as everyone else here.

A new GUI has been mentioned in a past newsletter but not forthcoming, and I don&#039;t see why some of the other functional tweaks haven&#039;t been made (defaults etc) by now.

When the much fabled new things (tech/UI/products) are rolled out, they are going to have to be big to impress and restore confidence.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve actually been able to get them to raise my pricing floor above .60 by badgering my account rep enough, but it doesn&#039;t seem to be something they like to do or want to advertise.  The problem still remains that it&#039;s an account-wide floor and can&#039;t be set per ad size.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Amen! I&#039;ve been with TF for years and over the past months I&#039;m less and less satisfied. I really absolutely loved TF when I started yeas ago but, like you, I&#039;ve sent them down the ranks in my lineup of ad networks.
