It's usually the ones that don't even have something "standard"... And what happens?? Nothing.. It's more often than naught just lip service..
I can see them looking at you as some sore thumb and will just surmise, "well if we fix his problem he sends us 20 signups a day. If we invest that time into acquiring new affiliates (just thread more banners), they'll send us 60 signups a day."

It's like asking dumber affiliates to subsidize the few more profitable working ones. It still works for sponsors without displacing the sponsors comfort zone in dealing with custom requests.
