I do not think that it is about being loyal or whatever, it is about lightlord not being available at all times. I am pretty sure these casinos he owns (or manages?) do not really have anything that worths anything similar to a good salary, he probably doesn't make much money at all. Which is why he has another job or something in "real" world where he has to go to work and come back.
I can see for example even the signatures can sometimes wait as long as 2-3-4 weeks and then paid total. He never scams people out of money, never heard of that, but he is usually quite late, so what you should be getting could take up to 2 months maybe, and that is really really upsetting I know, but I doubt that he would scam anyone any money which is why I think whatever is going on here right now about this problem will be solved as well, just very very late.
