Timezone, Location

Another enhancement idea:  since your times all appear to be in some timezone other than mine, it is a bit confusing. For example -- last time moved. It would be nice to have a timezone selection in the profile, and then have the times displayed in the local timezone. This would also help me know where people are from and then they move in relation to me!  In fact, it would be nice to have another selection (could be free-form text box) called LOCATION (or whatever) to suggest to people to put in their profile where they live. I generally ask people anyway via message, and this is one of the niceties of this site:  I can simultaneously be playing 10 players scattered throughout the globe.

That's another enhancement in the pipeline. The current times you are seeing are GMT. This is simply because that's the time the server runs on. The plan is to allow players to specify a GMT+/- n hours for the display and a free format field for location. I don't even want to think about automating daylight saving! (just yet at least)
