Go figure which forum has more influence with internet users ?

I don't know any other company like Telnic that cares so little about customer opinions.

I agree - it appears they want the Telnic subdomain .tels to fade away - though not of course Telnames single page .tels which benefit from TV ads, business shows, radio interviews, regular blogging, affiliate scheme, etc.

Here's their robots.txt file at http://www.telnic.org/robots.txt

The lines I have bolded clearly show what Telnic do not want the search engines to index - consistent with a wish for the Telnic subdomain .tels to just go away !

What other LOGICAL explanation is there for this ?
