Agents do not get paid unless they sell a book. That means they are reading queries/emails/proposals for free. Advances, in general, are low-mid-five-figures (if you're lucky). Agents must wait for publishers to issue checks (takes forever). Most publishers pay advances in thirds. If we are talking about an advance of $10K-$20K, 15% of each of those payments do not amount to much. No one is ignoring you on purpose; they are just drowning in queries.
