Go to any game, profile, or asset on the website where a date can be shown.
Observe that the date is in mm/dd/yyyy format regardless of user location.
Expected Behavior
I expect the date, at a minimum, to appear in a localized format according to location, with month clearly displayed to avoid any misunderstanding. Given that the US is the one the only countries in the world that uses mm/dd/yyyy format and the majority of the world uses either dd/mm/yyyy or yyyy/mm/dd (those are the international standards) it should be clear what the day is for where the user is.
If a user who is used to seeing dd/mm/yyyy sees the date 08/03/2017 they are going to think it means the 8th of March 2017, when on the roblox website, given its in the US format, this means the 3rd of August 2017.
There should be no confusion.
08/03/2017 should appear as 03 Aug 2017 so that regardless of where you are, you can understand the month and day without any misunderstanding. Javascript also offers built in options for localization, so its not a major effort to do the conversions.
Actual Behavior
Date appears in the US format of mm/dd/yyyy.
Workaround
Writing my own javascript code (which is very hacky to deal with load times) to try and convert the date for me.
