maybe you have been promoting the wrong sites or your program is just telling you they are not staying longer so they can make some money.

Remember though, you might only be able to speak from your own site's performance, but a long-time webmaster would likely be speaking from experience with dozens of different programs comprised of 100's of pay sites. That perspective is definitely where my opinion comes from.
As to your earlier point, I have on occasion sent traffic to lower-paying sponsors that I knew would do well for me, so you're right in part. But that other fellow's math was not flawed in essense, because if girlsite A is paying out 15%, and girlsites B-through-G are paying out 50%...... there is very little chance that site A is going to grab any significant share of the affilates looking to promote those types of sites. Thus girlsite A will make less money than the others unless girlsite A gets offer her ass and does all the promo on her own or else raises her payout to be competitive with that of the others.
