Kipps Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 I keep seeing this cliché of a phrase being shit into the player reports of people who're upset that their boring characters were killed. But recently, I've also seen some people (including administrators) nodding along to the argument about how silly it is for X or Y to happen 'in broad daylight'. Most people have real lives to plan their game time around. They can't log in at 3am in the morning to rob houses, which means that they might need to rob houses when it's only 6pm in-game. The alternative is that they just don't roleplay burglaries until they're prepared to stay up through the early hours of the morning. Can we please have some confirmation that it's okay for people to roleplay when they have the time to do so, and that expecting people to wait until past midnight before they roleplay robberies or whatever else is mindlessly dumb? My advice to the people who make this crap argument because they don't really have anything else to report a person for is to just not make the report in the first place. There are already more trivial reports that only exist to waste people's time and massage the egos of bad roleplayers than there are stars in the universe. 7 2 Link to comment
Juicebox. Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 I think this is a fair arguement considering a lot of businesses that would NEVER be open at night are, well, open at night, for the sole purpose of the timezones. Link to comment
Sixth Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Are they could just alternative day/night cycles and make it fair for everyone... Link to comment

They do alternate day and night cycles? The server is operating in the same time zone (RPly) as the United Kingdom of GB & NI. It goes from dawn to morning to dusk to nightfall. Link to comment

No, make it so the Europeans have to play at night and the Americans get the day cycle when it's our peak time. And vice versa every so couple of weeks. Link to comment

It is unfair that freedom hour players don't get to RP daytime cos of their time-zone, and yeah it is a game but it also is what it is bro. You can't make the server render two different weather/time conditions at once or go in between both time zones. Edited February 16, 2021 by Wynters Link to comment

LAGhost Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 This is the standard and it's a fair line for everyone. most people here are European, or Asian too. You don't see the men and women in the southern hermisphere complaining that peak-time for them is like 5-11am. Link to comment
orangejuice Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) The majority of burglaries IRL actually happen during broad day light. The thing is, people base “realism” on the server off their personal opinion rather than actual fact. Edited February 16, 2021 by orangejuice 1 1 Link to comment

You don't see the men and women in the southern hermisphere complaining that peak-time for them is like 5-11am. The server is split pretty evenly. There is nothing wrong with a rotating day/night cycle every 2 weeks. You can't role-play at night for 2 weeks at a time but expect us Americans to have to CONSTANTLY role-play at night. Don't be such a spoiled baby, bro. Link to comment
