Default Absolute Poker Question

OK, i recently joined Absolute Poker with 30% Rakeback.
Right now im playing 6tables of .5/1 NL.

I noticed there is 22 BBJ tables, and just 2 regular (non BBJ) tables.. what struck me as crazy and insane is that EVERY pot is raked .50 cents.. if someone limps in from SB and i check my option, 50 cents goes to bad beat jackpot, and 10 cents is raked. So if i get 30% rakeback, am i to assume if the pot gets checked down, i get back 3 cents?

Is this just not ridicolous? At Pokerstars every pot there is only raked 10 cents (say if small blind limps in) Now lets say hypothetically as a Goldstar, would you not make more Rakeback/hr *via fpps* (assuming you played the same amount of hands)?? I joined Absolute Poker cause i assumed i was going to get rakeback, but is this how it works? are my assumptions correct, and is this rake as ridicolous as it seems? I paid 67 dollars of rake in 1hr of AP, but i suspect at least 55 went to BBJ?
