Sponsors that delete inactive affiliates/webmasters

[Trixie]

So what do you all do about sponsors that have policies of deleting inactive affiliates? Do you just not promote them? Or does it make you want to promote them a lot? Do you agree with them that this is an okay thing to do?

I am just never going to understand sponsors that do that and be able to see them as anything but trying to take advantage of webmasters with less time, traffic, etc. I will never comprehend the advantage (except theft) of deleting affiliates who have never defrauded you, etc.
