Hi there, I noticed you have been manually typing your signature in your messages, so just dropping this here to help you out :) Fanofcoolstuff27 (talk) 06:28, 12 July 2021 (EDT)
- Yeah, it's because it keeps putting the wrong time info in. I'll show you. This is what it wants to put: Beetle Bug (talk) 06:30, 12 July 2021 (EDT), however it's not 6:30, it's 5:31, and it's not EDT, it's CST. I did try to change it to the right time via my preferences page, but it keeps undoing it to a degree. I mean, I have it set up, but when it posts it, it's another time completely.

- Oh! Since you are here, I just noticed that you are planning of updating Primus' page. Well, I'd suggest when you get around to updating the picture of his Cybertron toy, point out the stuff here: "In planet mode, he is considerably more detailed than Armada Unicron, with visible cities, including Iacon, based upon its appearance in the DK Publishing book, Transformers: The Ultimate Guide, and Kaon, specifically Kolkular, as seen in The War Within.", because I have the toy, but I can't tell which visible city is which, as I don't have the comics/books that are mentioned, and I think that would help many collectors and researchers down the line to have that info more accessible.

- I believe the timezone preferences only change how you see your watchlist, history pages and the recent changes page at your end. Message signatures are all set to EDT. I live in New Zealand, and my preference is set to my local time, but my message signatures still show up using EDT as well, it's just how the software is set up I guess. As for Primus, it'll be a little while until I get around to adding new toy pics. I have a backlog of Beast Wars and ROTF toy photos that I need to finish editing before I can take any new photos.

- Signature timezones all use the same timezone probably so that when you're looking at a talk page, you can tell whether one comment was made relative to another without having to convert between timezones. --abates (talk) 07:08, 12 July 2021 (EDT)
- Ah... Ok then. I did not know. Thanks for that info. I honestly thought that there was some error happening. Beetle Bug (talk) 07:11, 12 July 2021 (EDT)
