90% of the bitching on this board about shaving, minimum payments, middle men, are pretty much nonsense.
If you can't make the minimum - change what you are doing, a sponsor is not going to absorb the cost involved in sending payment to people that generate 2 sales a month. Too many affiliates have a mind set that sponsors exist to pay them money, sponsors are running a fucking business, that is why I have a cut off of who I will buy traffic from.

I think the bottom line here is that if you don't like the minimum payments then avoid the sponsor. If they change them for the worse, blacklist the sponsor, blacklist the owner, pull all links, and find another sponsor. If OldJeff doesn't like it then tell him to go fuck himself just like he pretty much told you when you complained of the minimums.
Nobody can force you to use a given sponsor. Nobody can force you to listen to some guy's egotistical bullshit on Go Fuck Yourself. It's up to you to run your own business and decide for yourself.
