Hot Tip: Display the Time a Game Message Was Sent


In-game chat messages don't show the time and date that the message was sent so that you can cram more chat onto the page. However, some players find it useful to see this information so you can turn it on by going to the "My Preferences" page and ticking the "Show Date and Time in Private Game Chats" page. Once you click "Apply" you will now be able to see the date and time that all in-game messages were sent.
