New to Entrecard

I just signed up for Entrecard a few days ago so I'm still learning. So far I've been surprised at how few ad requests I get (the free ones) are even close to being relevant to my site. Most are for things that would hold no interest to my readers and I wouldn't want on my site. I'm spending a lot more of my time rejecting ads than I thought I would. Have other people had this problem or am I doing something wrong? Thanks for the help.

Ever since they introduced paid aids a few weeks ago, the entire system is completely going downhill. Many long time favorite blogs on entrecard are dropping out. Many people don't want to advertise because their ads will now only show half the time, since the paid ads take their place the other half the time. I know I have really cut back on my ads. The entire feel of EC has changed. It used to be fun going from site to site and drop your card and find another new blog. Now, I keep seeing the same paid ads over and over again that dropping has become extremely boring. I never thought I would ever leave Entrecard because of all the traffic I used to get from it, but I am very close to leaving right now. If you have an specific questions, I'd be happy to answer.
