does it work again?
i don't play much these days and today i was reminded by my phoneapp that my skill queue needs maintenance, only 7hrs or so left.
I logged in only to find out my account subscription ran out. Headed over to account management, Plex4Hours, I'm back in game to buy me some real plex.

Last time i had this happen, i also had to reactivate the skill queue, as CCP disabled skill training on inactive accounts somewhere around 2007. Not this time, still 7hrs training time in my queue and active.
Glitch?

As far as I believe, your skills carry on training for three down times after your subscription runs out. Do not quote me on this as I may be wrong.

I think Ivan is right . 3 days after sub expires is what i believe is the time. I have purposely let 2 days go by on alt accounts many times. Plex is for 30 days, but several months have 31 days. so I 'pick those days up' with late subs.

What they removed was an odd glitch that would allow skills to continue training well beyond the 3 DT limit. For example, a month long skill finishing when the sub ran out after the first day.

It wasn't a glitch, it just weren't made so that the training stopped.

Maybe you all remember this ?

A long time ago, you could get podded, and if you didn't change skills, your training would continue as if you had implants still in.

I used to put in a long skill before every undock Cool
