Sure you are not mixing up time played vs time paid. I did that once. Once i bought more time. I got the reward.
This is correct. Screwy, but correct.
When you pay for a year or more of time in advance, you get immediately credited for the full time you paid for. However, your /played time will not increase until that year (or more) has passed.
This can be pretty annoying if you happen to have set up a year subscription during the latter part of a full year of playing (as you did). Basically, you played for 7/10ths of a year, and then subscribed to a year. You then were credited with 1.7 years /played. But you have to wait one year for that to update. Had you simply paid for a few more months of time (enough to get to 1 full year), then subscribed for a year, you'd have 2.0 years of time /played after one year, and always be a full year ahead in terms of veteran awards.
Yeah. I've been sitting at 8.8 years for months as well. Sucks really...
