I think bcs. your opponent is a premium member therefor he gets an auto vacation when one of his games has too little time left.
time change
Sort:
He/she is a Premium Member... maybe get special privileges... maybe..
yes s/he might be, but it's not an auto vacation. Anyway thank you Susanti & Anggita.

Yes.
Your opponent cannot keep up with the number of games he is playing so auto-timeout protection is invoked. He is charged 24 hours of vacation.
If at some point before a true 24 hours have passed your opponent returns, the extra vacation time that was deducted is added to game time.
Basically the site is enabling the overburdened players. "In a negative sense, enabling is also used in the context of problematic behavior, to signify dysfunctional approaches that are intended to help but in fact may perpetuate a problem."

Thank you for your explanation, so after the auto time out protection (e.g: 24 hours) has up, will there be any other auto time out protection again? for how many times?
