Topic: the time and date

This is a silly request maybe.


I think I am missing some posts becasue of the time difference.

IS it possible so each person can have their own time in their own country? so when a new post is up it shows what time local time it was put on?

I would like this.


Or just change the time to be GMT, this might annoy most users but it would please me very much  <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_biggrin.gif" border=0 alt="Very Happy">

Re: the time and date

You are right, Ken -  the forum date & time thing is very odd . . . seemingly 'chordie standard time' is a 25th time zone in some parallel universe.  Your idea is good - change it to a commonly-used setting (like GMT).


Or, maybe the 'Today's Messages' button could be set to present the messages posted in the past 24 hours - that way whenever you hit the button, it just shows the 24 hours previous to that particular moment . . .

Re: the time and date

I agree whole heartedly with your comments on the peculiarities of Chordie time Ken and James. And after looking at James's photo I can't help thinking that busking must have been hard in bygone days. <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_lol.gif" border=0 alt="Laughing">
