The faith I speak of here is not driven by religious principles, it's driven by business principles.

In business dealings there's a function called accounts receivable, it's the function of collecting money for services delivered. In this circumstance we've all provided a service for which Lightlord is the buyer. Our service has been completed and we're waiting for payment. Often companies set payment due dates at 30 or 45 days out and often (in the "real world of business" as you call it) the business owing the invoice doesn't pay exactly at the 30 or 45 days, but maybe longer (the term of how long is referred to as days sales outstanding.) We're all going through the same thing now. This current late payment, two days late, is meaningless. And that faith I speak of is a trust that is required in a business transaction.

If you don't prefer the way I think about, here's another way to think about it. Every other reputable campaign pays monthly and you all are bitching about waiting 12 days since the last payment?! That kind of fuss is unnecessary, it's childish. The reality is that we all provide a service before getting paid. And at the point where you or anyone else believes they can't wait for that payment to come, you or anyone else should end their participation.

And you're right, Lightlord does pay me, he pays me for every constructive post I make.
