    Another one of those "I wish they would add (or remove) this to the game because WoW"...
    That's not what this is at all. WoW is an example, but it's not what led me to post this. For me, it was my frustrations with Vanadiel time.

    You know, It's fine to hate WoW and everything, I'm not that fond of it either, but it is a very poor attitude to say that just because WoW had something, it must be bad.

    I REALLY hate it when people use "oh, look, a WoW idea" as a reason to shoot down a suggestion. WoW isn't the bain of our existence or anything.

    Doesn't really matters if 24h ingame are equal to 1, 2 or 3 hours you still need 2 different type of time.
    You really don't need 2 different kinds of time, nor is anyone "forced" to play always in day or night. You don't have to have major events only playable at day or night, and the definition of day and night is usually loose enough that most people can play at least some of the time in each.

    Unless you're a doctor or someone else who constantly works more than 12 hours a day, you should be able to get some play time both in day and night. And if you're one of those people, you probably don't have time for an MMO in the first place. Just my opinion. Not intending to state it as a fact.

    Or sometimes you live six time zones away from your friends and can only play with them in a very specific time frame like say, friday 11PM to saturday 4 AM and that would preclude you from ever playing with them during the day.
    Also this sort of idea, as has been said many times in this thread I think, would also preclude the existance of time-of-day-based content of any sort. Whereas it is true that 1.0 had, I believe, only 3 NMs that had time of day limits, it is one of various tools that can be used to enhance gameplay (Even if I absolutely hate spawn camping and whoever does that should die a horrible, painful death, tieing content to the time of day is not nescessarily bad either)
