Would be neat if we had this feature in v6 then but I dunno how long it would go back.

I agree. though I still think a calculator would be better for our current case.

I think it's a nice idea. Your online time is a pretty regular quantifier of skill across the majority of servers - I don't see why you couldn't set it as a tool-tip in F7 Player List... so long as the server can disable it.

It'd be hard to work with on UC servers, since you can edit your own hours in the accounts folder, so, yeah, you can set yourself to 99999 hours on a UC server, and then you log into UN with 100,000 global hours, no big deal

or -595578 hrs -10 mins -2secs in my case.. If there was a client add-on/widgets system of sorts we'd be able to make all kinds of useless aesthetic features like this global counter.

I'd imagine if Stefan had already been keeping track of your total online time, it would be it's own thing and not just the sum of whatever is in your accounts folder across multiple servers.

This. Also not really sure how client widgets would help. It's already possible to make your own client widgets (which involves using a 3rd-party serverlister, and is a bad idea if you enjoy not being banned) and you definitely can't do anything like this .

come to think of it global hours would have to make sure it doesn't count altered hours. :I
