Sponsors that delete inactive affiliates/webmasters

[Far-L]

We don't cancel accounts unless there is a substantial reason to do so, like account fraud. Instead, we have found that the expense of going back to inactive affiliates and trying to find a way to get them profitable again is justified in most cases.

I would personally be suspicious of any program that cancelled a previously active account, but would not have a problem with those that cancelled an account that never sent a sign up in the first place... but of course only after a reasonable effort to make them active and successful first.

Interestingly, you see this sort of thing happening I think when people are looking to scrape a cent together any way possible and would take it as a red flag about the stability of the program - even though I know those same programs would argue that cancelling those affiliates is good overall for the program. Spin is wonderful thing... until you get so dizzy you puke.
