How would I make it display what time of day it is? So like in the morning it'll display Good Morning, ect

You'd need a plugin. I suggest requesting one here: http://community.mybb.com/forum-65.html

No need for a plugin, if you don't mind some javascript that would work. You'd just need to add it to your header.

What kind of Javascript? I only know very basic.

Go to: ACP > Templates > Header Templates > header_welcomeblock_member > and find;

{$lang->welcome_back}

and before it, add the following;

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Original:  Robert Ison -->
<!-- Web Site:  http://www.infosourcetraining.com -->

<!-- This script and many more are available free online at -->
<!-- The JavaScript Source!! http://javascript.internet.com -->

<!-- Begin
datetoday = new Date();
timenow=datetoday.getTime();
datetoday.setTime(timenow);
thehour = datetoday.getHours();
if (thehour > 18) display = "Evening";
else if (thehour >12) display = "Afternoon";
else display = "Morning";
var greeting = ("<b>Good " + display + "!</b>");
document.write(greeting);
//  End -->
</script> - 

Should result into this;
