Test Post (RE: checking Datestamp)

SummonerNR

As a User, testing issue of pre-building a Post (saving as Draft), but then not actually posting it until a later date.
Will check what DateStamp (thus sorting date) does it get afterwards.

Initial Draft Saved on May 19th.
Posting Discussion on May 22nd.

@Kabam Miike
To compare to what happens when Kabam does similar with some Announcement Posts (that do NOT appear at top, aka newest, but are pushed further down because they got the “pre-built” date instead of the finally Posted date).
(aka, “Latency Issues” compensation post, May 12th versus 19th)

Result: got the POST date, but maybe because briefly adding that into comments above had done another “automatic saving draft” right before posting, that causes it to get current date.
Maybe if I just came back to Drafts and did Post without any further edits first might have gotten the earlier date ??

MrSakuragi

Can admin users schedule posts? Or post with a limited audience and change it after the fact? That might be the difference?

Adding comment, will save this as draft again now (shortly after original above) and then NOT edit it again prior to actually posting this follow up comment in couple days.
Will see if that would have an effect on comments datestamp.

(Result), got the datestamp of NOW, the posting time for this the week-long saved comment draft (above one), without further edit or “draft saved” status.

So must be something with how Kabam Announcements get initially Drafted, days in advance of posting, that those ones get the original Draft datestamp instead of when actually posted later on.
