I have an idea, lets not change boot time at all. If you do, do not do it like
Boot previously suggested, its confusing enough for a new player to be here
anyway, without having to keep track of when the machine boots.

Why would we change the boot again? I could see a LOT of whines coming the
minute someone or some people lose their eq cause they thought it was at
_____________ hour. That's a downside. Upside I guess is boot is better for
some people to do those eqmobs :) But well, ur not _required_ to do those eq
mobs are you?

Simple solution make it a inform every time you login when the next boot going
to happend so that way you alwasy know. I for one think its a great idea to
change the boot times. Boot happens here at 5:15am so that big of a pain in
the ass to get up and do shit that early. Cause some of us live real lives.

In theory, theory and practice are the same, but in practice, theyre not.

Even simpler solution. Leave it as it is.

Agree Fully, Dont touch the boot time, i see nothing wrong with it as of now,
and boot is 5:15am for me, yet i can get to sleep at 10pm or some crap if i
want to wake up at boot. Ajust yourself, not boot time.

Just let the mud run for exactly 24 hours, then roboot. This would make the
reboot time change almost unnoticed and nobody should lose their eq.
