Good question. I don’t mind high quality ads even if they are not relevant. Of course quality is subjective. Yahoo! has some very poor ads when using their email service. Blinky, non relevant ads. I don’t want to see any more ads for classmates etc. Hopefully your service can set a quality bar so that I’m not presented with fake dialogs boxes or other messages that are designed to trick users into clicking on the ad. Filter out the noise level of advertising and give me a better internet experience. Perhaps options for users to reject types of ads (show them samples), they must be universally annoying.

Now, this is another level of user control, for sure! This, to me, is the ultimate - demanding high quality content and execution in banner and other online ads. With the exception of fashion magazines, it seems that no medium does this very well. Your idea for execution, simple examples, is something I could see working. Additionally, you spark a good idea that our brand could stand for advertising that isn’t annoying or a trick, but only ads that the user would want. Of course, we would have to bring a pretty strong user-base to the table if we are going to start making those demands of publishers and advertisers. But, that is exactly what we are trying to do and we appreciate the help you are giving us with your suggestions and feedback!
