What I'm saying is the way it works is: You are advanced one rank at a time, and there's a waiting period before you can advance to the next rank. It's specifically designed to stop double promotions. I can't give an exact date of when the policy changed, but according to the wiki's history logs (looking at the page on promotions), it was 2018 (when I created the page), or possibly earlier. If you want to do some sort of backdating in the orders threads, and it makes sense chronologically, that's okay to do.
