i know this might be a little much to ask atm, but a possible improvement that you guys could make in the next update would be specific bidding for each ad. it's kind of a pain to have to move lower-performing ads to a new campaign.

This is a major problem for anyone running a proper campaign. This should be an improvement.

Plus, for the love of god allow us to delete "cancelled" ads. I mean like WTF every person in this thread has asked for it.
 

The guru selling out POF as a "secret traffic source" is running an ad scraper which loads pages from the POF site, saves the ads that are displayed, clicks through the links, and logs the landing page and affiliate links.

The bot causes false impressions on ads, that the advertisers are being charged for, because the POF bidding system is CPM based.

If he is really doing that, it is illegal. POF guys go after that pos for fraud.
 
While what he is doing is pretty shiesty and I don't agree with it, I'm sure you guys aren't broadly targeting your audience on PoF, so in essence his little ad scraper would only be able to scrape ads that belong to certain demographics unless he has thousands of accounts on PoF scraping ads 24/7.
 
He didnt give out his scraper to his 1000's of students or anything. So thats a plus I guess. But he himself is doing it daily.

I guess unless you can filter it out by demographics you can just use it as a tool to see which ads are long running and their effective ad copies and images. But then you need to do the demographic testing yourself.
