Is this possible?

Yes it is .You can use getTickCount function

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/GetTickCount

Read example. Take getTickCount when player joins server and subtract it from current tick count.

I would suggest splitting the "Online Time" data and then compare it.

I did not understand but try this

function joinTime () 
    setElementData ( source, "joinTime", getTickCount() ) 
    setElementData ( source, "Online Time", "0 :, 0 :, 0 :" ) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerJoin", root, joinTime )

Yes good try

function joinTime () 
    setElementData ( source, "joinTime", getTickCount() ) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onPlayerJoin", root, joinTime ) 
function checkonline (player) 
   local timeon =( getTickCount() - getElementData ( player, "joinTime")) /60000  
   outputChatBox("Time spent in server: "..timeon.. " minutes.",player,255,255,255) 
end 
addCommandHandler ( "timeinserver",checkonline) 
  

Now you can use a for loop to check who is online for most time.

addCommandHandler ( "timeinserver",checkonline) 
  

Now you can use a for loop to check who is online for most time.

basic math rule:

local timeon = (getTickCount() - getElementData ( player, "joinTime")) /60000

otherwise it would divide the element data with 60000 first

I want it to appear on the screen such as:

Cx.83 11:55

Name of the player and the maximum time
