maybe suggestion that is not that easy for admin to let it work
but what would you think of instead of PPT of 48hrs following hours having the option to choose between 48hrs and 6 days of 8hrs (night time/office time/school time) based on the game clock.

i think it would be better to have 3 days of 16 hours, cause you dont just go to school etc then sit on the comp all day and night! you have to sleep aswell.

While I can see the attractive nature of this idea, it is basically cancelling out one of the most compelling reasons to log in and use your account, and to develop your account - that being the risk of being attacked over night or whenever else you cannot log in. It encourages intelligent use of Realm Alert Levels, the choices or building Covert to hide or Defences to eh, defend, and so on.
Besides, this would basically allow people to be permanently on ppt during their "off" hours...

if you did it to cover you when you were offline then you would be untouch able for longer
when your offline your protected by the ppt and when your online your coverd by you banking which will just be like one big long ass ppt so no i dont like this idea kinda stupid if you dont want attacked when your offline get a better defence and covert put realm alert to critcal

Not a very good idea!
The whole basis of the game is to attack for naq that can be then used to increase your stats. This suggestion would effectively give total protection from attack (PPT by nigh/school + bank for other times), leading to greater abuse of PPT.
Manage your account people!! Build your defence! Build your covert! Use Realm Alert!

No i do not like PPT lasting longer even if it is the same abount time wise just broken up some people would never be attacked if that happened and also they could bye the ppt come off of it mass people jump back till there ready to mass again without loseing the ppt. It just seems like a bad idea to me.

indeed, that is a way i did not look at it, as i am a rather peacefull player it did not even cross my mind, it is just that i as most of us, have to work to earn my living (working approx 10-11hrs) a day, i sleep normally about 7 hrs so if you take this all together it is about 18 - 19hrs that i am not able to play/be online...
but i see your point and indeed this might have worse consequences than benefits...
allthough i would love to wake up and find my account not sabbed or attacked

mm, yes that did change it, and i suppose not being able to attack anyone while on ppt is just the ballancer. so yes i do understand now why this shouldn't go in.
