    It can be removed only by PWCN.

    However it was put in to deal with the problem they have of people playing games like this for too long. We do not have the same restrictions so much but this is something that they have as a result we have to have it as well.

    Annoying may be. Something PWE has no control over. We have to put up with this one im afraid.

    Some Help for earning Time is Here. Knowing how earning time works should help with using it.

    Thanks.​​

    This is because ppl in Eastern Asia countries have died for playing too much(Lack of sleep basically) and as a results there are restrictions for games in place to avoid this.

    since this has been put into the game i have never had a problem..maybe because i dont run bot(auto cultivation) for hours on end.I actually play the game you know..touching the keyboard.And even on weekends i play the most and never have this problem.

    well this is a problem to some people who wants to run warsong or tt multiple times because 8 hours to short. what about those people who have a whole day free time playing. game is boring because you cant do anything after 8hours. why the hell PW put this?

    The 8 hour Earning Time is daily, not weekly.

    You may have meant "news"?

    It's not fake. This is completely true. It was a veritable epidemic at the time the limitation was implemented.

    Some games limit you to just an hour or two of gameplay. In 2011 South Korea put limits on the hours of the day children could play video games.
    China has been pushing limits since as early as 2007.
    Even in the US limitations were sought in the mid-80's in regards to time kids spend in coin arcades.

    And just this year even....

    (They've actually been talking about that for a couple of years.)

    Since the game is made in China, we will not likely ever see this feature removed.​​

    The 8h of earning time are honestly more like 12h, because most of the time you are not depleting your earning time.

    Your earning time depletes if:
    - You attack something/Are attacked by mobs in the outside world
    - You run around in an instance, staying still does not consume earning time, so, let's say you're in warsong and you're waiting for people to come in, as long as you're not running around, it doesn't take away earning time.

    Earning time doesn't deplete when running on the main map, so, let's say you're farming TT, during that time you're going back into the instance, your earning time isn't being deducted, then you gotta get ppl to open, and you're gonna be standing still, which doesn't deplete earning time either (unless you have 3 other alts logged ready to go, which, you really shouldn't, cause, you know, rules :P)

    Anyways, I think the 8h is fair, specially since it stretches to around 12h, and then you gotta eat, sleep, shower (??? maybe not), so, when you look at it, you can pretty much play the whole day.

    Also, to each his own, but tbh, if you're playing for more than 12h a day or 8h without a break, you should probably get help.
