Maplestory should have a day and night setting

Title.
I wish maplestory got brighter and darker, like in most games. ie- at 6 am it begins to get brighter, a dawn brightness. at 6pm, it begins to darken.

Sounds more like pokemon. Different time of day, different pokemon.

I shudder to think of how this could go wrong.
Can you imagine? You stay up all night to watch the sun rise in-game, and just as it clears the hilltops you're hit with a YOU'VE BEEN BANNED FOR THE HACK REASON. And you appeal it, but the only GM available is Skelorm, who swears up and down that you were definitely hacking at 5:59 AM in an empty town.

That said, I really would love this idea. I like night-towns.

It's a cool idea that's been tossed around a few times, but it would have to be based on an in-game time. Like how XenoBlade's Day/Night system used a scale of 1 real second = 1 in-game minute. So 1 real minute was 1 in-game hour and 24 real minutes was a full day in-game. With a system that was synched with real time, it would make it nearly impossible for certain timezones to experience all the system had to offer.

If it depends on time zone.. It would always be night time for me..

It would be pretty sweet, although with time zones it might ruin the effect for people in Australia and such.

If it's like animal crossing, Australians will forever live in the dark.
If it's like Mabinogi, then it's not much of a biggie, I would like to see some exclusive monsters/other stuff available only at certain times of the day. It would be interesting.

also changing the type of mobs that appears would be nice, or some new maps to pop when day, another ones in th night
