I think it would be handy if there was an option (like the e-mail) that on the top bit of you profile, you know, where your name, gems etc. are shown, that you could put your timezone there. Anybody else think that?

Wouldn't use it really, I mean no offence, but it's kinda pointless. You can ask the user and besides, not all users know their time zone.

*raises hand* Do I get to be evidence?

Although, this would be a decent feature to add, but not totally necessary.

It wouldn't really be useful.

And I also know people whom weren't aware of time zones.

I think he meant not all users know their timezones compared to GMT. Considering the timezone option doesn't include location like other websites I've visited, that's understandable...

I don't think you have an excuse when you could just figure it out by search for a timezone map on google. With a map, you can visually see what your timezone is relative to GMT.

But in honesty why would most people need to know it? I've needed to know it....once?

I'm not talking about myself (I don't need to, I'm in GMT) I'm talking about other people. You know, broadening my horizon and thinking how others would handle the situation rather than myself? You could try that once in a while...

Basically put, it's a standard piece of info on most sites, so that's why I find it funny that most people here find it absurd, when really it's standard. Usually it's found in your settings (user CP).

I don't deny it's a standard thing, but do we Really need it?

No. It's just optional.
