Problem with the date format

[lady.stark]

I still see "one month ago", "2 weeks ago" or "Wednesday" or "8m ago" as the "date". Why it hasn't been corrected yet? It's VERY annoying! 😞  And yes, I did change my preferences in "My Settings".

Alternatively, sign out then sign in again.

I signed out.

Deleted all cookies and such.

Reboot.

Took the time to eat and do other things.

Am back here and still have the same issue.... the problem is not on my end, but on the boards. For exemple, your message still shows as being posted "4 hours ago". I wanna see the date and time, not an approximation 😞 If it can help, I use Internet Explorer 8.

When you set up your preferences, you MUST DELETE: "Use relative dates (three hours ago)"

Well, it seems the problem was on my side of the computer. 😉 I never noticed that little box was ticked off! Thanks Pierre, you solved my problem!
