why do new mmos split the usa and euro servers?

Yeah, its frustrating for me as well. I split my time between Japan, USA, and now France so my play schedule is beyond terrible. The only MMO I've played that didn't suffer from my time changes from the USA to Japan was my server on WoW. It had a strong core of NZ/South East Asian that were only an hour or two off from my own time when I was in Japan and then I had RL friends when I was back in the states.
