Wow, thanks y'all! Some really great answers here! 
One more question for now, at least- this one is much more minor but as I'm planning out my character, it popped into my head.
How do most people handle the time of day in-game? I noticed there's a game world clock, a server clock, and a real world clock. The night-day cycle is pretty striking and even city music changes depending on what time it is. Do people RP according to the time of day in the game world, or is it more by the server / real world clock? Or does it mostly just get ignored?
