Since Funcom has limited resources, how about doing the following (as other people have also suggested):
Schedule RK1 events on US time (meaning: when most U.S. players are online), and RK2 events on Euro time.
This way the max number of people would get to take part in story events, and nobody would be forced to stay up nights till 6am hoping for an event to happen - some of us have real lives *grin*
Right now RK2 is getting zero to none events, and the rare ones that happen(?) are during US times -> as a result, most RK2 players don't see anything, as RK2 is afaik more euro-player-populated.
Comments?
