Is there a way to not show posts until the current time is past what the time for the post is?

anyone know how to do this? Basically hide any posts that shouldnt have occured yet, however are already been made.

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only sober person left on the internet. I mean, what the heck are you talking about? Do you have a big problem with members posting from the future?

Videx,

I have created multiple pages that are quite customized to do different tasks. Some involve making posts. Of these made posts I want to have some not show up until a certain date/time. I could either create another table, save these posts into that, and check the table every few minutes or seconds. Then move them from one table to another when they should be posted. Or I could make the date on the post in the future and not display them until that date.

I think the second course would be a better way of doing it.

That might need a lot of work as the vBulletin core does not take the time of the post into consideration.
