Default Table image at a loose/passive table. Advice requested.

Hi All,
I was playing at Online recently at a .50/1 table and just got clobbered by the deck. I was getting many high pocket pairs and many suited Aces. I was in for about 50% of the flops, and I was winning 70% of the hands in which I saw the flop. Even the hands I was folding preflop were generally better than average (A5 unsuited, K9, etc)

Needless to say, I was winning more than my share of the pots, and given the loose nature of these games, the pots were rather large.... at first....

My "Problem": I was raising a lot preflop. Close to 35% of all hands played were being raised by my legit raising hands... After a while, the players stopped playing loose and tightened up... I was still getting the cards, but when I raised, I wasn't getting the callers. I was afraid of breaking up the table, so I started getting reluctant to raise in an attempt to see if the action picked up again.

Any advice on this? Should I keep to my regular gameplan? Or was I right to tune things down a little? What do you do when you run over a table? I can't say it's a problem I really mind too much. I generally hold my own and make a decent profit at this level, but when you're on a major roll, what do you do?.. there are worse problems to have, I suppose..
