For some reason on my messages, Shadowrunner message view likes to turn it into military time, any reason why or to change it?

Mine's fine at the mo. It is in the 24 hour format, if that's what you mean?

Yeah, I don't like it in the 24 hour format, I want it regular time. I don't want to see people IM'ing me at "17:21" or "20:43: etc. I want real time but I don't want to ditch Shadowrunner.

As the author, my imput is thus: live with it, or ditch it.
It was the simplest way to make sure the timestamp was a fixed size - something quite important to the style. I also rather like it, anyway - 24hr time is much more informative in much less space.
If you hate it that much, open up the style and change the timestamp format. It's fairly easy to find, it occurs in the 8 incoming/outgoing html files. Apple have a page on time formats in their documentation somewhere... I can't guarantee that you won't need to alter some margins and stuff too though, I'm afraid.
If you need more help IM me, I'm more friendly when I don't have to write huge blocks of text at once..
