Some BBM messages have times and some dates...why?

[Windows Central Question]

When I send a BBM message sometimes it will show the time the message was sent (or received) & sometimes it shows the date instead.

The crazy thing is that when it is AM it generally shows the time of the message but after about 3pm it only shows the date..... what gives?!?

Makes it kinda hard to know what time your BBM contact sent you the message....

How often do you check BBM? Today's messages have the time but when they turn a day old they change to the date. Your old messages 1 day old and older will have date.
