Does the adsense pay rates ever go back up?

Unfortunately, I have clicked my own ads at least 10 times in the last 7 months. I Don't mean to, but shit happens.

Recently I accidently clicked an ad and consequently, my page ctr price and page ecpm dropped.

Does anyone know if GOOG bumps these things back up over time if you don't make mistakes and click your ads?

I think the decrease in rate is not the result of your own clicks. Its may be because now you are getting low paying ads or something similar.

Also another thing that Google (although detects your own clicks) doesnt pay you for your clicks.

ppc is going down...... IMO the situation could only improve in 2009.

don't expect me to explain all the reasons from sub prime crisis to yahoo ban on arbitrage...... from the increase in google online ad monopoly to the increased pressure of good financial results etc. etc...... I can see that webmasters will earn 50% or less from ppc compared to what they earned last year.

Yahoo MS deal is the only hope.
