i've been in both situations... i've left due to principal with some but have stayed with others because even with the cap / shave i make more with them (i've tried to leave but ended up going back because other sponsors just didnt cut it)

i've had the opposite as well.. a long time ago i sent massive amounts of sales to a sponsor here & even after stopping for about a month i had random sale credits come in daily (keep in mind this is with 0 raw & 0 unique hits) - i'm sure stats were being modified there & my sales were being shaved but the bones were threw at me to keep ratios decent

i got the excuse from them that it was ach sales clearing, glitches, etc... ach doesn't take a month to clear

personally i would rather be paid less and not have my stats fucked with than given a high pps that is going to be modified

once you have that seed of doubt planted it makes it very difficult to feel comfortable promoting with paid traffic / adwords / etc... because you never know what your real ROI should be
