Why refreshing forum before getting the real time?

[AVE5]

So it seems an unusual obsession about the forum time for me today.
After a post i made today, I was attracted to check the time I made the post through the forum time. While looked at the top right side where the forum time is located, then it was incomprehensive for me to match the forums current time with mine. Hence i know my local time is only 1 hour ahead of the forum time but then I had to refresh the forum before i could get the real matched time.

                                  

Believing that some of us whose time zones ain't the same with the forum time might sometimes want to use the forum time to monitor our activities especially when our devices local time is incorrect or probably just convenient using the forum time for navigation.
So I was suggesting if the forum timing could be programmed on a cybernetic other by which the "seconds in time counts"  is automated to automatically revalidate the Minutes and the hours in updating the forum time without refreshing the forum before getting the forums current or time.

You know already that nothing update automatically on this forum. You will have to refresh before you can get the update like the forum time and posts. Just always refresh and see what you want. I did not see this as an issue or any problems and I have not thought about this before, just because it is not necessary.

You can change the timezone the forum shows up on your settings (check Time Offset): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;sa=theme

Seems like you're from Nigeria? So that would be UTC+1 (add 1 on the Time Offset field).

Except you spend an insane amount of time on a page, it will be very easy to match the forum time to your local time and use that to know the exact minute/seconds at anytime.

Having the software update the timelog constantly seems like too much work for something that doesn't exactly change how the forum is used. It's much easier to fix your device time if that is wrong.

That isn't a bad suggestion but I don't think that such feature is needed at all. Most of us always look at the hours and sometimes at minutes and that's why I think such feature is unnecessary.

I believe it could be done easily with JavaScript by a good programmer or someone like TryNinja could make a Tampermonkey script that work without adding any burden on this forum.

The forum does not automatically update the time shown on the upper right side of the forum. To update the time is you have to refresh the forum then the time will be updated. For me, how I know the time in the forum is to add hours to the time on my local zone so that I'll know what time it is in the forum. Let's say the forum time is 9:36 PM and my local time is 12:36 AM so I'll deduct 3 hours and use PM instead of AM. Anyway, that's not my local time but that's what I do to in order to know the time and date in the forum.
