    Hi, I'm on my phone so I don't really have the template and for some reason it wouldn't let me copy / paste it.

    Anyways onto the suggestion.
    I am suggesting that we start doing more off peak server events for us Europeans and Australians/New Zealand people of ECC.

    I, including a lot of others find it extremely unfair that we cannot participate in a server event based on where we live.

    I wake up most of the time and check the forums and shoutbox, only to realise ive missed crazy lottos, mine runs, boss battles(my favourite), coupon giveaways, ecc server tokens, the list Goes on to be honest.

    I just wish that administration takes into consideration that when they do these server events they'll think 'should I do them now when everyone has a chance to participate? Or should I wait til only EST timezones are on' or something like that.

    If anyone has any other ideas just post a comment and I'll add it to the main thread, thanks for reading this.

    I hope you consider it

    - iTz

    We just had an SG boss battle which was during a fairly off-peak time for the Aussies / NZ people. I've seen some other events take place during the time where most Europeans are online. Personally I don't think it needs adjustment, server events are supposed to be a rare thing after all. It all goes down to whether you're online at that time or not.

    I do agree on you're points and that the administration cannot keep everyone happy, but it's ridiculous that most of the events are around 2-6am for most Europeans and Australians/NZ

    I do agree that there is some server events that are suitable for all round, but I just believe there should be more balance between the time-zones.

    Anyways thank you for your feedback!

    I find this hard to do considering all of the server admins besides Jamie lives in the U.S. which would cause them to have to stay up really late in order to convenience you and other timezones . There are also a lot of other people on around the time they happen but they don't get to participate for whatever reason. Bottom line, these events should be rare and spontaneous. We shouldn't know when they are going to have them anyways.

    oreo1227 is usually online a bit during off-peak, which is why we had some off-peak events today, which was nice :)

    I would like to see this, however, it solely depends on whether or not there are SA's on during the off peak times, and as of right now, I don't believe that and of the SA's are online during off peak time due to their time zones. And over the past week or so, I have seen quite a few server events during more quiet times of the day, and its not like the SA's can get up at like 6am just to do a boss battle lol. They are always like late at night for me (like 10pm start) or like 5am, which does wake me up when I am online lol, and I don't really mind them being at that time honestly.

    As well as this, if there were to be more events during quiet times, I don't think many people would participate. As if you were just online, you would see that Jamie did a crazy lotto and there were no more than 3 tickets being bought each round, rip lol. With this also, staff can't do like 3 events every day just to suit all the time zones, as events are something that should happen not too often, so it doesn't remove the excitement when they do occur.

    Thanks for your feedback, and to the second part of your question, it was because we'd already had a crazy lotto today, and everyone was bored of them lol.

    No becuz Murica.

    In all seriousness though, it appears to really come down to a lack of geographic diversity in the upper-levels of staff. Trey said before that all the SA's live in North America (not like any of them really sleep at all tho tbh), so it would likely be in the best interest of you non-Muricans if the server had a little more equal representation so as to be able to have these events and whatnot.

    Food for thought.
