Suggestion Box

Looking thru the different posts, there is info to the left of each indicating day/time of entry - ie - one hour ago or Tuesday or yesterday.  What is going to happen when someone posts to a thread next week on a Tuesday or on the Monday the day before the post???  Wouldn't be easier to understand, and make more sense, if the date and time was indicated in that left section??  I find that section totally useless...it will say 2 hrs ago, after 10 min ago or yesterday after two days ago.   Please fix this section so that the reader can see when the post was inserted.....

Someone helped me out with this the other day. If you will go to Quick Links on left side of page, click on Edit My Preferences.  When you get there, click on Display.  Go part way down to where you see date formats... I selected the default which is mm-dd-yy. Below that you will see "Use Relative Dates" and a box... click to make sure there is no check mark in that box.  BE SURE to go to the bottom and click on SAVE.  Then go back to your thread, and your dates should show as    6- 8-2015 and the time.  I hope it works for you.

ETA:  I think when you leave the boards and come back a good while later, it has signed you out.  You may think those dates have changed back... you just have to sign in again to see them the way you set them.
