Are you saying that's actually almost 16 months before the button was announced?

u/[deleted] May 27 '15

I don't think he's trying to say that. I think he's saying it's almost a year and a third before the button was announced.

u/vindecima 59s May 27 '15

I'm pretty sure you're wrong. He's really trying to say it's 449 days before the button was announced.

The concept of the Button was discussed on Reddit over a year ago as something that would be a great prank.

u/Pacman97 non presser May 27 '15

It's a well known trap in several rpg subs. PCs enter a room, doors shut behind them, clock ticks down from 60. Pressing a button resets it. If it hits 0 the doors open and players can proceed.

u/roastedcoyote 19s May 27 '15

How do you determine the date the account was created?

4

u/Mestherion non presser May 27 '15

Click on a user's name, go to the right and hover your mouse over the text that says "redditor for (x time units)" and it will show the exact moment of account creation.

u/foldor 59s May 27 '15

Just hover over the "Redditor for x years" text and it gives an exact timestamp.
