accurate post times

other sites give the date and time in hours and minutes (june 19, 2010. 8:31am)

ours is just 39 minutes ago, 1 hour ago, 3 days ago, 09-09-09... etc.

is there any plans on changing this or is it not really that important.

I really don't see it being that important but if majority wanted it changed I'm sure the admins would look into it.

could a poll be started? it would help out more with the hours. for a post that is past 1 day, it's not very acurate and if someone goes into a thread they could establish a more accurate timeline of when work was done or what time someone left for a meet.

wow, sandwiching two treads into one is pretty sweet.

At one point this forums did switch to the other time layout and a lot of people complained about it so it got switched back to the way its always been.


I have to say I do prefer the current time stamp as opposed to the time stamps used on all the other forums.

Just always liked it better. To me the full time stamp looks cluttered.

I changed it once and almost got killed over it. So, I believe it should remain :)

Also, its a global setting, so regardless of theme that is how the time / date stamp will output unless it is hacked.
