Payment per paypal or wire for international affiliates, regardless of $$$.
I will be saying this in any of these threads.
And don't get me with the "oh, it is the fees" bullshit. It will cost a fortune to cash an international cheque anywhere but the US.
fucking stone age banking system ya got there, yanks.

Since it'll always go underreported among a mercenary crowd of lone wolves, I'll toss this out there: APIs, standards, infrastructure, technical staff that know they have to willingly communicate with publishers as part of their job in supporting the APIs, standards and infrastructure. The industry is apoplectically archaic when it comes to technology, which makes sense given who are involved and what their focus is, but which is still painfully, well, painful to deal with.

reach out to affiliates to find out what the deal is...
I've recently been contacted by a couple networks by phone (most recently COPEAC) and have started running traffic with all of them within a couple weeks...just because they reached out - listened to what I was looking for and helped find me offers I could run.

False.
Re-read your post, it was the biggest jumble of gibberish I've ever seen.
I read it 2-3 times and still don't know what you were trying to say.
What the heck does this even mean? A mercenary crowd of lone wolves? Who are you talking about? Did you pull this out of a hat? Or are you just into writing verse on WF as means of satisfying your poetic tendencies?
You have "standards and infrastructure" twice in the same sentence. You have verbal diahhrea going on here.
Shut your fucking Roget's thesaurus and fix me a turkey pot pie now bitch!
You are painful to deal with. Please, don't post again unless it's "GOODBYE ALL"

Don't you think it's in the network/AM's best interest to help you make money? Why even bother having an AM then?
wow, Some good posts already but allow me to throw my 2 cents into the pot.
1st. I agree with basically everything roundabout has said already.
Here is what I want in addition.
ACCURATE CLICK TRACKING- for fuck sake, every single day there is a discrepancy between my tracking logs and the logs for the network.
NOT SHAVING SALES
100% PAYOUT- feed the fucking horse once in a while. If someone is pushing 10 offers and bringing in thousands of conversions a month, GIVE THEM 100% PAYOUT on a couple of them. And give 90-10 payouts on everything else at least! And stop shaving conversions ya greedy fucknuts. I have conversion tracking, its not a mystery to me how many people I convert.
(addition to that last one) STOP BEING GREEDY BITCHES. If I refer someone to your network, don't take my referral commissions out of THEIR pocket. It should come from the network.
So thats about it, in addition to having AMs that know their ass from their elbow, better payouts, better Landing pages, better converting offers that arent whored around town, and at least just generally pretend to give a shit about the people who are making you boatloads of cash.

As some of you people know, I started a private network for friends with 4 simple goals in my mission statement:
1) We will beat any payout you get from any network
2) I'll pay weekly from day 1, with no threshold
3) I'll be available 7 days a week, 20 hours a day to help you make your campaigns bigger and more profitable. I'm an affiliate myself.
4) I'll get any offer you are currently running at another network within 3 days - and beat the payout.
I created my network to help my inner circle of friends actually make money. I utilized all my direct connections with advertisers and ran on ultra-slim margins. The people in my network are friends, and there is no fraud, so I have no reason to take big margins.
I know I will get paid - so I run slim. The quality is amazing, and the advertisers pay more, and that moves directly down to the affiliates. It's a win / win for everyone.
Because I was new, and I wanted to keep cash flow very positive for affiliates, I pay everyone in my network weekly, if they make 50$ or 500,000$. It develops trust and takes time.
Finally, I'm a full time affiliate myself and most of the revenue generated is from internal operations. I'm fully transparent with how, where, etc I promote my campaigns. People rip me anyways, might as well have people running with me. I'm not afraid that people will leave, because I always offer the best payouts.

How do you know this? Seriously, an Advertiser could go bankrupt, one of your affiliates could send a boatload of fraudulent leads, anything can happen that could cause an advertiser to say "I can't pay you... yet"
Best to have a plan of action for when this eventually does (and will) happen.
