Here's an idea,
why don't we allow four times worth of 1/2 market supporter status to be done at once allowing for double the PPT time but still using both PPT's at the same time.
People who want to use both PPT's would be able to, people going on holiday for less than four days would still be able to keep getting income without going on vacation mode.
usin both PPT's

the problem here is that the game is set up to a max of 2880 minutes of ppt...
but if that is changed, then it would be helpful...

I'd rather see a different change in PPT's. Currently, PPT is only profitable for people with armies of a couple million, because it costs so much. We've been given a couple of cool things we can do with our market turns instead of using them to trade. I'd like to see the option of trading in 3MT's for a free PPT (and count it as 2 PPT's used). For the high income people this is pointless because they will get more profit if they just buy 2. But for people with less income, this gives them a chance to profit from PPT as well.

As soon as you build an idiot proof system, somebody else builds a better idiot.
If it moves, kill it. If it doesn't move, kick it until it does move, and then kill it.

this was kinda where i was leading - but you could take it further, the ppt over a certain army size or rank (say 1/2 the lowest rank) could cost what it is now but you can do both ppt's at the same time - for 4 days of protection and under a certain size or rank, just cost 3MT's and like 2-5bill naq, it would make it a lot easier for newer accounts to get in and size up a bit
(my sister recently started so I have been thinkin about her a bit)
however, there is another good idea there, if u use both PPT's for 96hours of protection, you could still pay the usual 14odd bill naq but also use all 3 MT's

Indeed!
I also like the 4x trade for a 4day PPT using up both avalible PPT MTs and 2 MTs as well.
For the 3MTs for PPT, prehaps make that a 3day PPT ?

Sorry to go against the flow, but I dislike it... if you can't log on Once in 2 days, you don't deserve to keep your naq... just get farmed.. geez its not that devastating... Personally 4 days of potential ppt a week is too much anyway... it largely benefits the large players due to them keeping a higher percentage of their naq... and its not in the spirit of the game. 1 a week... mabye.
