It's not an option now and I don't think it will be.  you know the time where you are but most often it's more critical to know what time it is at Wincustomize headquarters.

There are no plans at this time to add localized time to the forums.  I know it's a pain, but there are so many other things that the time would be better spent on (like speed optimizations).

I don't consider adding a simple timezone support to the forum as a big deal. I do hope that this is added in a future version of the forum. Because it makes it easier for international customers to keep track of the time from which the post were last posted, etc.

It's something I've always wanted to see....as it 'personalizes' the user's WC experience, just as the 'Welcome, User' title above.

I'm usually somewhere between 14 and 16 hours ahead of 'WC time' [DST permitting] and often must rely on my LS Module showing dual times instead....

Damn I can't believe I forgot where Michigan was.  Put it on the wrong side of the lake.

I've always been in favour of having local support for time zones.

If that is not possible, it should at a minimum be set to an international standard, like GMT. At least then I'd know to add 1 hour, instead of trying to figure out what time I'm looking at, whether or not its set to a local summer time or not...

Would it be simpler to replace the time with a 'Posted 5 mins ago'? That would be more useful

I would like to see multiple time zones listed, that way I can be confused in as many points in time as possible.

I believe WC likes the feed back and sugestions from the community.

I think when it is time for WC to redo the site they will offer up a formal "suggestion" thread, as they have in the past, and take the best Ideas from it.
