The "active user" stats are interesting as far as telling the browser type and OS that is being used.
It will show iphones and ipads also.

What you'll need to do is go to the My Profile link above, and check your settings to make sure the system is set to your time zone. We disabled the 'x time ago' on post times and now the server displays the actual time the posts were left. Downfall is that the forum now is set up for 'internationalization' so in order to keep that standard, the forum software bases everything it does against UTC time (which is basically GMT time) -- so each member needs to go to their profile and check the time zone setting and most likely update it to their local time zone. The system will then properly calculate the post times for the members based on their local time :)

Totally insignificant.

We're still working on browser detection issues at this point.

Chrome shows up as Safari because of the "UserAgent" that Chrome reports -- it's based on the AppleWebKit browser platform (which is the same as Safari and several others. Instead of detecting the "Chrome" in the UA string, the forum code recognizes the AppleWebKit string first and labels it that way.

I believe the upgrade we are testing solves some of the browser detection issues as well as issues with some mobiles (and a couple other things that are not working) --
