Hello,

This is something wich is bugging me a bit. Do you think you can also mention the brittish or central european times and also the asian equivalent in posts about server restarts or events like the upcoming double xp weekend. This is not because i am to lazy to look up the times at witch events start or the times at witch there is a server restart but i think it is a service wich any global game like this should give.

For the european players, tonight the double XP event begins at 20:00 Brittish Summer Time and 21:00 Central European Summer time according to the following site.

They should use Unix timestamp or Stardate instead. :D

Seriously, if they would implement time zone management to the forums (instead of the location textfield) it could display every date in their actual timezone for every user.

Adding that many time zones to our posts would prove more confusing for players. The GMT differential we provide in each post should help players determine their local time.

We're exploring a new forum solution which may incorporate this feature.
