I think turning on vacation should lock you out of all the website features until you turn it off because I've played against people who turn on vacation time one move before checkmate or in a dead-lost position many times, and when I look at their accounts, they are online playing.

If you are so busy that you can't make a move in a daily game you shouldnt be playing on the website right.

These people can be reported for Stalling or Quitting games, but it may be trickier to verify what they are doing. I report players all the time who just sit there and run their clock out. Chess.com later reported that the player was warned.

The vacation abuse situation will never be resolved until we can utilize a "no vacation" option for daily games.
