Forum time... - Page 2

Socrates · 02-10-2004, 16:27

It's also better to not have to add or delete an hour each time you read a post. Forums' times can be messed up or can be set up in different times. So the more forums in MY time, the better.

Hehe, I find it better and funnier to bump an old but still "in the air" thread than starting one every month about the same subject. Threads with just a few posts aren't cool, and duplicate threads are annoying. Please free to bump other old threads, I'll probably do it from time to time when I get bored and when I find something useful to say. [

Hehe Krys, I was just kidding around. Since at some fora the moderators tend to strike down on people bumping old threads...

Ah, I took your "someone beat up krys" for "someone bump another thread before krys bumps them all". I found it funny but I got it wrong, I misunderstood the use of the verb "beat" (you know, like in "beat me to it"). I also found it funny to bump an old thread without making any remark about it and without funny comments inside.

Sorry, I'm trying to be funny, but it doesn't work... Could we have our timezones now ?

If I get time for anything it will be to allow you to set a timezone, so you can see all times in your own timezone.

There is zero chance of changing the timezone per forum as the shared fora wouldn't benifit from it at all.

BUMP.

Of course I'm not asking a time for each subforum. Just a time for each user, like on any board, will do. That's the logical solution and the thing I want most. Any dedicated member to the forum will be happy with this feature, and we mostly live in GMT+1. Doing the 1-hour math all the time is annoying. Thanks anarres.

Agree with Socrates on this one, since he has such cool sunglasses and all.
I always forget what timezone this forum is, and get confused...

I think you already explained me (surely in the CFC chatroom) ; your nick comes from Pericles and something else, right ? And I see you use a Pericles avatar on other boards.

One day I'll ask for a fight, ô you the personnified irony of that idea you call Democracy...

EDIT : BUMP
