Timestamps changed?

**megamon88** · 10-17-2010, 11:05 AM

Hey, I just noticed this today: instead of the timestamps for posts saying the exact time, like "12:01 PM" for example, they just say something like 1 minute ago or 1 hour ago. Did the forum change its default settings or did I accidentally hit something in my settings while I was asleep? I've looked for ways to change it back but haven't found anything yet. It's not really a problem, it's just that I prefer the old way. Sorry if I'm being stupid, I just want to know if everyone's timestamps are changed or if it's just me.

It is global. Everyone sees it that way now.

Is there any way to change it back?

**Sprite-** · 10-17-2010, 11:07 AM

No. Not unless Synth reverts to the old way.

Aww. I'll just have to live with it then. :P

I think today is the first day it's happening. It doesn't matter either way. You should still recognize a new thread or a new post.

**alloyus** · 10-17-2010, 12:09 PM

I liked the old way, too xP

People being afraid of change!? Not in my internetz!!

Edit: post 123... yeeeeaaaahhhh

Wow. Didn't notice.

**Zageron** · 10-17-2010, 12:24 PM

I like it.

Crashfan3 · 10-17-2010, 12:27 PM

I preferred the old one. It's easier for me to see that something was posted at 10:19 AM instead of see that it was 6 minutes ago, look at the clock, learn that it's 10:25, subtract six minutes, find out the post time.

yelruf3 · 10-17-2010, 12:35 PM

yeah, but why do you need to know the exact time as opposed to how long ago it was?

Crashfan3 · 10-17-2010, 12:39 PM

i dunno.

I have been liking it for seeing how long it has been since a topic has been posted on, and I have also wanted to see the time to see WHEN it was actually posted, so really I can see good arguments for both. (Can we have both?)

**All_That_Chaz** · 10-17-2010, 02:10 PM

I think it would be a nice option to have in the forum display options, if such a thing is possible. I think I preferred the old version too, but that's just because I hate change =(.

MrGiggles · 10-17-2010, 02:41 PM

Immensely prefer the old timestamps.

who_cares973 · 10-17-2010, 02:48 PM

its harder to stalk people with the new timestamps
