Is it just me or there are too many date time formats in Torn, I mean short format (dd/mm/yy hh:mm:ss) and long format (yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss) are fine but to have american format (mm-dd-yyyy hh:mm:ss) too it just makes it harder to catch and convert these format into timestamp for sortability. It would be nice to have all in the same format but at least if we can use standard notation so the converters will work that would be great. For example, we could use - for standard date format (dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm:ss) and / for american date format (mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss).

To add, the american date format that I see is in Territory War report page (02-18-2019 09:53:28 to 02-20-2019 20:23:54).

Yes, having it in ISO standard format would be the supreme option since this is a multi-national game. YYYY-MM-DD for all date requirements.
