Suggestion

Could we possibly add our Skype address to the profile area?  Maybe some of us would be comfortable giving the area of town we live in? Metro areas, maybe not actual addresses.

What else could we consider adding to profiles to make the place more informative, friendlier and generally contribute to the functionality?

Adding Skype is a great idea!!!!

Can the time (that posts were posted etc.) be changed to "Kyiv time"?

What do you mean? I am afraid I didn't get the idea...

He means can server time be set for Kyiv time?

[Admin]

Server is too far from me But you have this option in your personal settings.  Go to Profie and then to Look and Layout Preferences. You'll see Time Offset option. Use 8 to have Kyiv time as your local time. So every time you log in you'll see local time for forum stats.

ah - for some reason mine didn't adjust correctly for DST

Ed, try selecting "View/Refresh" (or depress the F5 key) to invoke the change you make to the profile. Seems to work for me.

h, now I know why I was aving a problem.  I had changed my offset to 7 a couple of weeks back.  The US went onto Daylight Savings Time a few weeks earlier than Ukraine, needed to set it back to 8.

Forgot about that since my aging memory was telling me that it used to be right but wasn't anymore.

Old fart moment.....
