Keep in mind Google would have no idea your friends are architecture majors. They just see the same few IPs consistently clicking ads on one or two sites.

I don't think Google is reducing how much you're making because they notice you're making money. No, but I’ve noticed the payout on the clicks varies depending on the ad.

You did read my post and comments where I say I don't think AdSense is a scam, didn't you? Good luck with that.

Both accounts were closed within a month, with both accounts having accumulated roughly $50 at the time of being closed. Myself and a friend both work on our site, which we are currently in the process of rebuilding, and so we each opened an account in our own names. Each time we were told that there had been illegal 'clicking' on our site. The emails were exactly the same and there was no way to figure out how or why it happened. We have friends who check the site weekly...and are architecture majors...and the ads are all with regards to architectural projects and components...so they click on the links and sign up for competitions and such...but we lose our account...all I am saying is that I am sure that some people have success with this program, but I have even tried parking random domains i have purchased, and that too had my account cancelled...so whether or not its a scam, I don't know. But i do know that they don't ever communicate with you and even after filling out appeals, they still cancel the account...so I don't know if I believe it or not...

And I agree 110%, they do not return emails. They suck ass, 20k employees and they cant figure out customer service if their lives depended on it. Once I win in court I will post the court docs for all to see. Welcome to the club, I am personally going to sue them for $1496 they owe me after closing my account for no reason.

I'm not saying you did anything wrong and I do know some legit publishers do get banned from the system, but is it possible you did something that went against the rules?
