ok, so for areas off the mainland add an extra 2 or 3 hours because I think they don't have daylight savings time, could someone confirm this please?

My post was in response to the blanket statement that because this is a US server that there is one US " Primetime " . I was meerly try'n to point out to the poster that not everyone in the US has the same " Primetime " hell even people in the same time zone dont all have the same " Primetime " . People have lives, work, school things like that., which you obviously have no clue about.

And im going to go slow for you on this next point. If you dont think that 3 hours is significant. Why then are things like sporting events, TV shows and such scheduled in a specific time zone and not in one all encompassing " Primetime "

Now go back to your basement, put on your pirate hat and try to absorb that.


Oh and ya forgot about Guam

Maybe I'm confused on this one too.

So basically what you're saying Echelon is that we open the server up only at what... 4pm EST and close it again at midnight PST, and lets forget about Hawaii, all the night shift workers, and all the Americans stationed abroad for one reason or another. That's assuming we're just talking about US (since its a US server) and not that its a money making enterprise and that the server is US because its stantioned in the US, and not because its US restricted.

Echelon, I'm going to brutally honest here, since you seem to like that kind of thing. You're whining, excessively whining, and you fail in response to this idea. I'd back you up more if it wasn't that you were trying to tell EU French from other Servers to go away as well in other threads.

See I refuse to accept the alternatives, that you're so US centric that you really honestly feel you don't need any help, or that you don't understand that a US server just means its based in the US and doesn't mean only the US people should be playing. You seem to be a fair, well minded, MMO experienced player who just happens to like talking trash.

In this case the trash-talking is making you look like a whiney little idiot who suddenly realized that the world doesn't revolve around him. I'm sorry but that's exactly how it makes you look. It happens to all of us at times, me more then most, but it happens ,so in this case I'm just going to advise you to shut your mouth and let the whole thing go to page two and be forgotten.
