Post Creation Dates.

I know it says the date of when a thread was created when you click on it. However, there are times where you for instance would be looking for something like a code, so you need it to be recent, someone commented on the thread the same day so you think its recent, then you click on it and the thread was created a year ago. 

Some other forums have something that says how many days, weeks, months or years ago the thread was created, as well as when the last post was.

I think we should have something like that.

You mean like using weeks, months, or years instead of just the standard dates we have going on with DemonForums?


Oh yeah, definitely. I support.

So instead of this: 12-18-2016, 12:31 PM
It would look like this: 1 week ago?

+1 support if it is like that.

Well not really. What I mean is that if you were for instance on the recent post list, it tells you who last posted on it. It doesn't say when the actual thread was created. So someone could post on a year old thread, you click on it thinking its new, accounts for instance, then you see they were posted a year ago, it's just annoying and wastes your time. On some other forums, they have it as we do, the most recent post and stuff, but also a little thing next to the post title just saying "2d" to say the thread was created 2 days ago, or hour, month or year.
