DST is messing with my payout

@CG_SBCrumb hello, how are you?
My payout was at 9am EST. I now have to change it to keep it at 9am due to day light savings time.
This really messes things up for me in my arena shard. I was the only one that had that payout time in my shard chat. I was able to take #1 everyday.
Now I will have to share a payout with someone in the shard chat unless they also change their payout. This is a problem.
Why doesn't the game follow DST. A lot of issues could be avoid if it did.

I understand that, but it doesn't mean it doesn't cause issues.
And another problem is I have to change it back in the fall, but won't be able to since I used my first point months after DST last year.
So this is a huge issue for me. I changed my original payout for a very specific reason, not just because I could. DST really messing all this up.
Plus, the clock change doesn't happen on the same date in all countries. Germany won't make the switch for another 3 weeks.
You still share payout with the exact same players. Only your local time changed. The servers didn't change anything.
you should realize the devs won't care about your "unfortunate" situation of your shard chat payouts
Well, you might be right, but they should care and it's not like I'm the only one this is effecting.
Can't have it all, shard collusion and favourable PO local time throughout the year. Imo it's not even an issue at all since you can change your PO twice a year.
Stop, take a breath and read.... As Waqui said, the game time remains the same, only your local time has changed.... All of the people in your shard still have their payouts in the exact same spots.....
Except it's the same amount of goodies.... Nothing changed....
He was moaning he was going to have to share. *shrugs* Because that's so unreasonable.
True..... But he is also wrong about having to share....
There is no dust to settle..... Absolutely nothing changed
Now I remember why I don't post on the forum.
This.
I don't think you are in a position to be pointing fingers at anybody else's post history, but rather than stoop to your level, I will leave it at that.....
Anyone who has been playing this game for more than 5 months has already been through at least one time change, and should have seen this coming..... OP has two solutions, either change his time and share a payout or play a little earlier......
Actually, another solution would be to change his time to something completely different so as.not to share a payout and at a time where the next change won't affect him.....
Wah wah wah I used to be all by myself.
Wah wah wah, hey sbcrumb can you call the U.S. government to change back the hour.
Stop tagging sbcrumb selfish questions. Jimminey Christmas
My pay out was at 9am. When the time change due to DST my pay out became 10am. I need my payout to stay at 9am so I changed it. Now I share a payout with someone. No big deal to me. I'm fine with that but the person I'm sharing with now might not like it.
