im not 100% sure on this but WoW time seems to reflect RL time, at least when i was playing US beta it was always day time during evening and night time in the morning :p

Wrong.

It's on a 24 hour clock, which closely match the timezone the server is in. Was a minor outrage on the US forums about this a while ago.

As for seasons and weather effects, it's on their list to do (atleast the weather effects confirmed by Caydiem I think it was recently), but with very low priority.

People playing from oversees forced to always play during night time on their prime time, etc. I always liked the sunsets/sunrises in daoc and FFXI - it's a shame I'd have to be up at a certain time of RL day to witness it in a game :(

Weird to have an actual real life 24h daycycle. Most games compress it so that a day ingame is a couple hours in real life.

hehe guess all the actions will b in real time, which is cool, coz in daoc it took like 1 in game minute for the horse to gallop once etc.

Very windy in England, not quite windy enough for hurricanes though!

They gave us snowballs for christmas on the US Servers, so you could have snowball fights. Just nite/day as the previous posters stated, no seasons. It is cute that you leave little tracks in the snow as you walk around in it though :)

Sorry that they died, but I had no idea they were going to.
I wasnt making a joke out of them personaly but out of the wind, the majority of funny jokes play upon other people, it's not my fault they are dead...
