That's all I'm saying, I don't consider it hostile to have a high minimum payout, even Google's Adsense payouts are $100 minimum I believe. They are far from a hostile or disrespectable company, in fact they are quite the opposite.
And similar to you stated above, not trying to start a fight, just discussing opinions, I don't run a program so my opinion is only worth it as a 5th wheel to begin with.

I don't think $100 is all that bad either. Although I can understand why it might make an affiliate think twice before signing up and sending traffic when they don't know if they will send a lot. If it's a problem don't sign up. I agree.
I think expressing an attitude of "screw the affiliates only sending 3 signups a month" is more of a problem than a $100 minimum itself. I've been in the industry a while and have seen a lot. Usually someone openly minimizing affiliate contributions or otherwise speaking of cutting them out is going to act on those beliefs in some way in due time if they have not done so already and in ways which might not be very visible. That's more what I was referring to. There's a lot of trust involved in this on both ends...
