I am however, in support of having all forum timestamps switched to the Star Date.

Can you remember why it was a no?

.. Slightly related, I remember asking for Edit, Quote, etc. buttons that didn't have the white edge around them (check the ugly border of the "Post Reply" button top left on this page) and had prepared the pictures so that all that needed doing was uploading to the right folder. It would only make the buttons slightly prettier, but even that got a no They run a tight ship!

I don't ever remember us asking for shoutbox timestamps, could have been when I wasn't a mod though.

No, I'm afraid not. For the vast majority of requests we've made, the denials have come back with little or no explanation.

EDIT: It may have been a shoutbox report-post button I'm thinking of. Either way, I'm pretty sure it was around the time we banned Dirty that we discovered just how many extra tools we could use.

Whats wrong with the current system? Click on the link, see when it was written, carry on.

Frankly, not having one seems fine. Say something and get the party started again. If you're uptight about replaying to a 5-hour old message you have too few problems.

11:08 tore: A small timestamp on the left of the message that tells you when it was posted.


I assume there is a setting for it that only needs turning on. Could Yac look into this for us?
What is this hoop-de-doo over a time stamp? Just use the hyperlink provided and thusly located above the shoutbox. Why go and bother Yac for something that is already there?

If you wonder what time someone post something then click it ->Shoutbox

It's not about that. it's about being able to see the timestamps without having to do all that extra work of clicking on another link.
