I've had several people now approach me in game because I have "EU RPer" in my search info and they wanted to know if there's an EU RP community here. I always say yes, definitely! And because we're not tied to just NA or just EU, there's usually RP going on somewhere at all hours of the day and night. That's one of the great things about Balmung. On the downside, it takes a bit of digging if you're a new EU player and want to know if there's RP going on that isn't starting at 1 am your time.

I know you can click on their profiles to see local time but, it would just be a bit easier if it was visible on the posts (Especially in Making Connections) - Not just because I want to identify other EU'ers but also because when it comes to the US of A, some timezones like EST are more workable for my schedule than say, PST.
I love this idea! I will admit to stalking profiles to check out their time zone (I'm just trying to be helpful...) so I can point them in the right direction but this would make it a lot easier. I'd also like it if it was more straightforward to filter events, linkshells and FCs down to relevant time zones but I don't know if that's feasible.
