What happens if someone quotes the post - does it not reveal the BB code?
Edit: question answered!

If the post was created for a long time ago, it shows an old date plus X hours. It would be nice to show this function only for new posts.

@AndyB I love this addon. I changed the code a bit to enable 4 characters instead of three to go over 999 hours. Can you make that default in next update?
Also, can you also add permissions so specific groups can see the link beforehand? Would love to have it
