It's more when their rejected, and since it's been 2 days since you set it, you forget, or have an unavoidable commitment (aka driving home from work/catching the bus etc)

Again, trade with reliable and quick traders if you dont want to be left hanging so to speak, another good tactic is to go on PPT after you set a very important trade, I.e trading in 100's of trillions of naqudah.

And with the introduction of the "time and date" a broker was set, you should have no excuses missing the end of a reject. If as you say you have an important schedule so you wont make it back for the reject, that is what PPT is for. If you already used up your PPT's one would suggest you use the PPT's mroe carefully and when you have these Schedules you must keep.

Well imo, i.e. What if SGW goes down, and say, the person must go overseas in a few hours? They've just sold all their uu for, i.e. 150tril naq, SGW down = no PPT. If they lose it's it's completely NOT their problem.

Also when SGW goes down, usually its followed up with a PPT for everybody.
And if you are dealing in great amounts of UU/NAQ just before you are to be gone for several days then you have some problems. You should only trade like this when you know you can protect it.
And it is your fault, your the one who went oversea's and left your account and resources to the wolfs.

You've never been delayed an hour or 2 due to a accident? When your PPT ends say 30 mins after you get home, this turns out to be 1.5 hours later :?

Whilst it's all well and good to say "trade with reliable people" or "make sure their online", sometimes time zones prevent this...

when trading large amounts, we always engage ppt shortly before engaging trade... not a day and a half before... if neccessary, we will extend ppt at the cost of loosing a few hours' worth of ppt time...

no actually, never. And dont end your PPT's 30 mins before you get home. End them a few hours after. Their are ways to get around problems of time keeping. Another solution is try to bank/spend/make safe your stuff way before your PPT ends. If your late for work with the excuse "I was delayed" most bosses will tell you to leave earlier, you should forsee problems and plan ahead :).

I haven't either. I'd just like to be able to set that i want to broker up for an hour, whilst I'm on. Then it's instantly canceled, and i can get my resources back, and broker someone else more reliable

Well I dont really mind, it'd help some people maybe, I wouldnt say it was a needed installment to the game, more cosmetic.

I agree there. Though not really cosmetic, more non game-critical update.
