Hmm, interesting. Maybe that's why Charles hasn't gotten many tips. =8^|
I don't really trust pay pal, and don't tend to use them, but Charles has
tended to "disappear" for quite some time sometimes, over the last couple
years. I guess meat-space keeps him very busy sometimes. Anyway, I don't
know that tip jar donations are a frequent enough occurrence have
established a pattern on them specifically, but given the general pattern,
I'd say nothing can be proven from a no-response for several weeks. I'd
hope he can respond within a month to six weeks if not sooner, but I don't
think the evidence supports necessarily getting worried in less than a
month, anyway. Of course, if you have a limit to the time you can
challenge it with pay pal, as seems likely they might impose (I don't
know, guessing), that kind of throws a wrench in verifying anything at
all, but there you have it.
