Yes, and if a server does that they aren't going to keep many players very long. It's not a big deal.

Rick is right, it ruins the atmosphere to turn off the light effects. I've been waiting for the light effects to be enabled on all of Graal for the longest time. It kills the entire point of day/night if people can just turn off the night. Now since it doesn't lag as much clientside, it shouldn't be a problem for people on bad computers.

Now things like player shadows and object shadows and more can be done. If the playerworld/server wants, they can always make their own custom options to disable certain effects and stuff.
