There are no "golden" sponsors any more, so replacing one doesn't cost a thing. I cannot stop a sponsor who wants to help keep this industry like the wild west, just so he can bank a few more dollars this year. But I don't have to support him.
In the case of AFF for example though, you spend a lot of time and money building a good recurring income with them. I know you're very well aware of how attached you can grow to a great recurring sponsor. I was asking myself the same question, as I posted it here. I do use AFF, and have a decent recurring with them. They seem to accept traffic from anyone, ethical (for whatever that seems to mean around here anymore) or not. I don't know the answer yet, whether I would drop them or not because they are continuing to support these Fuskers.
