It says it still hasn't been 48h (probably due to rollback) even tho i was on VAC for like 8 or 9 days.
Cheers.

Dude the fact you COULDN'T come off vac on ascended was because EVERYONE on ascended was on PPT!

How can that be a fact? How can a VAC account be on PPT And with that disable my choice of comming of VAC?
I was able to come of VAC on main without issues.
IF there was a problem with one server why allow me to come of vac on another and let me sit there for 24h without bonuses?

Generally when a server-wide PPT is given it affects accounts coming off VAC during the PPT until the initial PPT given by admin has ended (doesn't have to wait 24hrs). I don't know why you came off vac on main ok, maybe the initial PPT on there had ended? But everything will be ok in the end, only have to wait a few hours really don't you.

Wrong. It only affects you when going on vac, not coming off.

Extacly my thought. And well as it could be as little...if i happened to have a 30T def it would be a big loss, but with having a small one its an "acceptable" margin? Is that what you're saying clarkey?
Its BS, thats all there is

Wrong.
I have personally been unable to come off vacation mode during a server wide PPT. My account was evidence of that, and this is how it has always been.
EDIT: Vacated accounts are placed on 48hr PPT immediately when it goes on vacation. This PPT is what PREVENTS the vacated account to come off vacation for 48hrs. Once that PPT has dropped then the account can come off vacation. Therefore when the server is given a server-wide PPT the vacated account CANNOT come off vacation. As I said I know this for a fact and that is how it has always worked.

Well THIS IS NOT THE CASE.
IF the account is already on VAC mode, the PPT is not applied, at least it wasn't on main as i came off without a problem. I don't see why there would be PPT aplied on ascended while my acc was on VAC?

Easy^ i know this for a fact! I had someone check my account when server came back up to make sure it was still on vacation mode. Guess what they found??? My account saying "on the cusp of a blackhole" and "on PPT". So YES vacation accounts do get a server-wide PPT, that is why it is called a "server-wide" PPT!

It's just another case of inconsistency. Whether it's a 'bug' that Easy managed to come off vac on main, or a 'bug' that Easy can't come off vac on ascended is irrelevant.

No offence, but it could be your facts are bugged then?
