There are a lot of threads about nightcapping on these forums, and whether you agree or not, its definately an issue thats causing conflict amongst the players.

So I have to ask, why are there NA and EU servers? why not just global servers with no region specific tag?

If servers were actually global then surely it would all even out, all servers would be 24/7 rather than a few pwning at nights when their opponents are less active.

Right now WvWvW needs looking at, people are not going to invest in defences if a keep can be easily taken at night when a guild cant be on to defend it. WvWvW is supposed to be fun not a job where you have to schedule defense teams 24/7.

Yes there would be issues with lag, but surely just a ping timer on the server select screen could allow people to choose if they want to join servers closer to them.

It just seams to me that losing the regional tag and just having global servers would remove the whole “they play a night” or “they have french canadians on their server” arguements.

Also, a decent diplomacy feature is required, so that the two servers losing can better communicate to halt the winning server.

Seconded. Something needs to be done. There are many suggestions on forums and it’s not even THAT hard to fix
