Lets not get distracted here, the clear point is: ZOS does not give a rat's arse about Aussies.... customers.
Do Australians even have internet?
Huh. The more you know, I guess.

It sucks that it happens at that time for you guys but it is just the way it seemingly has to be.
Seriously, how many Americans are getting up before the sun to play this game? Sure cater to the majority, just don't cater to the complainers which they have done. If ZOS released a spreadsheet showing that this time slot was the most consistent time slot that they had the fewest players on, then I'd shut up and go sit in the corner. But, I know its not - they're just pleasing a few whiney kids.....

Ahhh, but is it? Like I said, if ZOS gave us some data to show that, "yes this is when the least amount of people are on" then I'd shut up and go sit in my corner. But its not, it's based on "feedback" not data, its not based on a player poll, its based on the amount of bitching they get from a few *** in the forums that want to play at the crack of dawn. A bunch of players that are forum warriors and don't actually represent the player base....

Seriously though, the company is east coast based. Not West Coast so it starts earlier.
1st world problems.
