PPT - Noob Question

Alright, I know someone's gonna yell at me, but I've searched the boards, read thru the FAQs and the rules and I'm just plain sick of searching for my answer.

I understand the PPT and how it works, but I need details on it.

How long does it last if I donate?
Can I still bank and upgrade, as long as I don't attack? (IE: SL, UP, Defense and Strike)
How will I know when it will end and I become vulnerable?
Can I only do it once per round or multiple times?

Thanks

Firtsly it last 2 days (48 hours)
You can still bank, upgrade and get you UP money and log into your account
You can tell when it ends as in the top left hand part of your screen it will say PPT X amount of hours...when this reaches zero or is no longer there you are no longer under ppt.
You can do it 2 times per week.

Hope that helped you and i doubt anyone would shout at you if youve read everything and still coulndt find the answer however in the future you should put your questions in the newbie help part of the forums.

Yeah most questions about game features go in the Newbie Forum.

You can find a lot about PPT if you scroll through the Game Updates. I think Buck got most of the stuff but I think the twice a week thing hasn't been implemented just yet but is being thought over. It is essentially a ceasefire between you and every other realm, as in they cannot attack or sab you until your PPT runs out or you attack or sab someone. All other (non-hostile) actions won't result in loss of the PPT status.

So you're limited, in actions, to recon during PPT?

intelligence is one of the most powerful weapons...
if someone knows we have 500+ nulear weapons, are they going to attack us?

if someone knows we have a spy network too strong for them to infiltrate?
then logically they're going to be attacking blind if at all.
