wouldn't it ve fairer if the zone was set on diffrent time zones?
yes, i have mentioned this before, and i know it is hard to code, but when people come on here from australia, egypt, slovakia, germany not to mention the uk wouldn't it be posible just to have a option in the profile where you can spesify what time zone you operate on?
not only do a lot of comunities do it lately, it will make it far more friendly to people who come on here outside america
It doesn't bother me. I quite like all the different time zones.
the idea is a good one, but i don't really care myself.
Timezones are really tricky to deal with. The problem is that we've always had everything in terms of eastern time. In retrospect this was not the best decision, but well... Ideally we'd find all the places that store times (there are a lot), convert them all to UTC (not so easy with times in the past), and then convert to and from UTC on the fly. Errr. Real soon now.
i still think it should be done, we're lucky we have such a growing comunity.
maybe i'll help code it.
another idea, you know the /time command? well, below the time there could be a button that says set in this time zone.
or....a simple edit box, where people can type in like, 5 for 5 hours ahead, and it automatickly sets itself from your own computer
