Chojin you went into this knowing full well that mentioning your preference right off the bat would skew the popular opinion

Question: Does relative timestamps fade after a certain ammount of time? Like I hate the idea of every post that happened 12-23 months ago would say ONE YEAR AGO on it. Like there are honestly times when I have to track down the date of something and I wind up using message board posts and stuff to gage that. Would I be able to get the actual date of a post by clicking the time stamp or something?

All the posts have dates attached to them regardless of what kind of time stamp you have. Ideally though the combo timestamp would explire after two days and regress into a full timestamp after that period. I really don't get why people would want one or the other when you have both.

Except the combo doesn't tell you a relative time, it just says 'yesterday' or 'today' or nothing next to a full timestamp. IDEALLY, we should have a full timestamp with (5 minutes ago) or something after it, but there's no option for that because that would be great.

Also Jix it's my understanding that the relative timestamp goes to a full after 24 hours, but i know fo sho it goes to a full one after a month or two.

As I mentioned before, this board started off with relative timestamps and I seriously saw "1 week ago" for all the threads at the bottom of General Blabber's page one.

You're making a big mistake here!
