whenever i go to this forum, the time and dates are different. so i'm not sure if there's a new post in one of the forums.

i could think of some workarounds, like learning the difference. but will take some time. or i could just mark a forum as read so i know by the image if there's really a new thread. but would everyone else do that?

i'm on GMT +8 btw.

I also click every thread whether I read it or not just so I know if there is something new :)

I assume you were asking if other people did that as well.

no, i'm saying it should be implemented since many dota 2 players are around the world.
new members will be confused and must adjust a bit.

I agree, each member should have the option to chose his timezone.

Ah, I see. Yes, that is a good idea.

I agree it would be nice, though I'm not sure how hard it would be to implement.

Not sure if you knew but the forum time is GMT -8 :)

I agree with this idea as well. I'm thinking the forum time should be set according to your computer time. If that's possible :\

It would be much simpler to just have a clock in the top right for GMT -8 and you can just figure out the difference yourself. I like the idea of having a single time. But thats just my 2 cents. It really doesnt matter, we just need a clock.
