Exclamation Time is off

I am in the US in the Eastern Time Zone. In order for the time to be correct I had to pick the Atlantic Time Zone. Is this 1 hr off cause of Daylight Saving Time? Or, are the time zones off?

I think Chuck is referring to the forum. My time (Central Standard Time) was off by two hours until Daylight Savings Time ended. Now it's only off by one hour.

All very confusing especially because the clock at the bottom of this thread is showing GMT but is in fact wrong.

Check GMT for the proper time as invented by us Brits

You're right, the forum clock is off. I live in the -5 eastern timezone and had to set my preferences to -4 to show correct forum time.

I just enlisted here and noticed that I am posting this question 7-8 minutes before I've written it? Is the forum clock at the bottom of the page wrong or something.


Haha lol @ Loose Chippings from a fellow Brit.

Right now at the forum : All times are GMT. The time now is 07:19 PM.

And at http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com : 7.12.17 p.m.

Not much difference

To change Time Zone: http://www.softwaretipsandtricks.com...do=editoptions

Look under "Date & Time Options"

I'm not referring to different time zones; the time @ that link eg GMT+1 is the same time that my computer's clock says.
BUT, the clock on this forum now reads 9 minutes ahead of that.
It was 7 to 8 minutes yesterday.
