    Don't know if am in the right forum but I've got a little suggestion, that can help about time problems (I've missed some stuffs sometimes because there's too much time difference between the other members & me)
    E.g Today is the 14th of june here right now 1:01 am and am sure many of you are still 13th June.

    Well here's what I was thinking. We already have our time (in red) displayed see below

    It would be nice if we could get the time of the other user displayed too.





    hmmmmmm just a suggestion :D but I think this can help a lot..

    Seems like that might a good idea. maybe do something like.... Current Time: XX:XX (UserLocal: XX:XX) or something of that manner. Might be a nice addition if Shawn considers it...

    The time displays as your local time (for all posts), I'm not sure displaying the user's time zone (which is really all that would be happening) would really serve any useful purpose...

    Why useful?
    I bid, buy, sell based on my time, which is when I am on here.
    Not on some time of another person, the poster.

    It also would become a bit of a privacy issue. If someone wants to tell you where they are at, just check their Location.
