I'm sure programs that offer very LITTLE for the affiliate shave as well. I don't think offering TOO much means that a sponsor is branded as a SHAVER... many of the things we're discussing don't focus solely on payouts & percentages.

if a sponsor can only offer $30 PPS or 50% RevShare but had a long features/benefits list: i.e. rss feeds, byot, co-branding, watermarking, FHGs, realtime stats, weekly payouts, multi-tiered, longer cookies, contests, fansigns, trucker hats & tshirts (like the company in your sig ), lots of updates, (above average) design, quality content, site access, and support, support, support... that wouldn't make them dishonest in my eyes.

but I see your point... but shaving happens at every level, regardless of industry. fact of life... but if you suspect someone's shaving, move on.

Personally, I think my Bank has been shaving me lately.
