I checked and I'm still on Eastern Time, but my time stamp is an hour ahead. It's not a huge deal, but I thought you should know.

ETA This is weird. It's wrong sometimes, but then it's right. Literally, everytime I click on something, it flips back and forth.

I noticed the same thing tonight...

Same for me.

I was just going to report this. At least I'm not the only one. icon_smile.gif

The time stamp has always been weird for me.

My time stamp has been consistently 1 hour ahead since The Big Transfer of Power™.

I wish it were consistantly wrong. I swear, everytime I click on something it jumps back and forth between the right time and one hour ahead. icon_confused.gif??:

Sorry, I'm not ignoring this, just not sure what to do with it, ie where the problem is. The time stamp, as far as I know, is not just down to the board, but also down to local time servers. I could be utterly wrong on this, I'm checking it out at the moment, as soon as I have an answer, I'll let you know, even if that answer is that there's nothing I can do.

Watch this space.

Thanks a lot! As I said in my OP, it's not a huge deal, but I figured I should let you know.

By the way, when we notice problems, do want us to make new threads or would you prefer we post in the "What's Broken" thread?

Start a new thread here, keeps each issue seperate.

Admin,
Have you been working on the time stamp? I ask because I just got an error message about Day Light Savings. Anyhow, I turned Day Light Savings off under my Board Settings, and now everything is working right! icon_smile.gif

Define "working on it". I've been playing around with computer and board settings for my test account to see if it made any difference, and my determination is that it made it go all squiggly.

If that's working on it then yes.

Otherwise... of course, yes, absolutely

Well, whatever you've done, once I unchecked the boxes for automatically updating for daylight savings and is it currently daylight savings, I got the right time.
MalGal
I did what you did HOC and am posting this to check and see if it worked.

Edit
When I unchecked Auto correct DST? another setting appeared. I had to uncheck Is daylight saving time in effect? as well to correct the time stamp, but that worked.
Penguin
That seems to work for me too! (so far!)

Oddly, my time stamp is normal when I post from Conglomo™, but once home, I'm an hour off. My settings are the same regardless of my computer, aren't they? Well, I just tried the DST thing, so here goes...
