Hello!
Currently, the method for doing a timestamp is by using F2 (twice). However, it isn't an extremely reliable timestamp source. Using macros, you can make any chat message you like. For example, look at these "timestamps" (one real, one fake. It's obvious):

And another example:

Thread Title:
Better timestamping with a command /timestamp
Minecraft Name:
ScarabCoder
Suggestion:
Add the command /timestamp command, which will return the current time to be screenshotted. It will also do the same in the server logs with an ID, similar to /own.
Reason:

Also, using a better date pattern would be easier for everyone to read. For example, it would print:
[TimeStamp #654635] Timestamp saved. Date: 12/9/2015 12:55. Screenshot this to save the ID.

The problem with falsified evidence isn't timestamping, but the evidence itself.
In your second photo, andrewkm is in "agreement" to pay you $1,000,000 tomorrow - You can still easily legitimately timestamp that agreement given that it's visible to you and your client. Having a /timestamp requirement won't do anything, except complicate things further, which isn't what we need.
There's nothing we can do about falsified agreements unfortunately - although remember, if someone is using falsified evidence against you, you can always contact Administrators and ask them to do a log dive for you.

The problem here is using screenshots as evidence instead of something more trustworthy.

What's to prevent someone from faking the timestamp?
Sure it has the ID that can be compared to logs, but I'm just better off searching for the original message at that point. -
