It has recently come to my attention that the timestamp on the message board has been reading incorrectly again. After a little bit of research, I've found the problem.
The timestamp used on the message board comes from the server. The server is observing Daylight Savings Time. However, the message board software doesn't compensate for this, at least not automatically. So, if you want your time to read correctly, you're going to need to change your timezone to be relative to GMT using your DST value.
Eastern Daylight Time = GMT - 4
Central Daylight Time = GMT - 5
Mountain Daylight Time = GMT - 6
Pacific Daylight Time = GMT - 7
I'm not sure if the non-USA folks will be affected by the system's timezone change, I would suspect not. The system reads its time from GMT absolute, so if you don't observe DST, you should not be affected. |
