Velani,

I hope they address this. I posted in the suggestion forum with some evidence that will conflict with the assumption of GMT on the website. The account creation dates are listed in EST. The post is here: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/th...52122&sid=1#32

Hope it helps.

I was lucky, I guess, I new the last day for me to play was going to be the 1st even though my end date was the 4th. I wrapped up my last team at the last second for my personal timer, and would have gone to the wire if I knew i would have been able to play sunday and Monday.

I also posted my evidence of non GMT times in account management. I thought the Account Creation and Last Login are local time. I wasn't home to test the last login so I am not positive. If you are EST, Souca, we may both be right, I am CST. I am sure someone at home can test this.

I also suggested that they send email to the accounts on both sides of the RAF link as well as an in game mail to each toon on both accounts a week before RAF expires with the exact day/time it ends with a Timezone. They also need to fix the web site. That won't help you guys out here but it will help future RAF'ers.

If they don't do something they will be dealing with this daily. New RAF accounts are coming up all the time, this issue will not go away.

I also think they need to figure something out for people to at least get to use their grantable levels. We were day 1 adopters, we acted as their sales force (to ourselves or friends) and our commission was the RAF benifits. Everyone needs to get paid.

The GMT issue is bogus and they know it. Also, this "fully automated system" was altered/fixed after the patch bug. So we know then can adjust it to some extent.

I brought up most of this in my suggestion posts and in the CS thread as well. The CS guys got it too because an in game feature stopped working unexpectedly, RAF bonuses. Even if the GMs can not fix it they need to esclate it to some one who can, just like they can esclate restores to character specialists.

Good Luck
