If I wanted to manually insert a post into the database, how does the feild 'dateline' work/read?

it's the standard unix timestamp (seconds gone since the 1.1.1970) so you have to enter the value of time() for now.

Or the MySQL function UNIX_TIMESTAMP. For some reason vB uses a lot of extra PHP work instead of just having MySQL do it.
