That's how every MMO I've ever played works actually.. more time invested and a higher level of preparation leads to more rewards. Isn't that pretty much the entire point of playing an MMO? I mean, that is what a level based system encourages right.. it's not like they get any easier or take any less time the higher you get.. and a lot of people want to get max level (yes you can do this while having fun) not run around roleplaying that you're a bear or some retarded shit.
So ya, I think hardcore mmo players typically do put a lot of time into the game they're playing, not sure what other game you've been playing but that's how it works and thems the breaks.

you can put in all the time you want, but when it's excessive and was originally put in place to prevent behaviors that are taking place anyway it then serves no purpose and furthermore is actually going against the main objective of the server. you know?
if you played WoW you might remember the old 72hr limit on some raid zones ( i think it was 72 hrs?) where you couldn't raid a zone until that limit ran down. You were allowed to still play the game and do whatever else you wanted, but thems the timelimit for that particular zone. People didn't sit in front the port-in until that limit wore off, they actually played the game. what's happening now isn't necessary, and it's actually driving away competition because it's so unnecessary. should i really have to spend 4 days in a zone waiting for something to spawn that should have a window only a quarter of the size of the current window? all this to deter people from sitting on its spawn when they do it anyway? how the hell are we not on the same page here?
you can still put in more time and get more shit, like waking up at 3am to down (insert awesome name here) or spend all day in crypt or efreeti's lair. my point is that you SHOULD be doing that instead of waiting around for 4 days and poopsocking because of some old decrepit shitbag of a rule that never worked anyway. as it stands, people who actually PLAY the game are at a disadvantage.
