Concours Mustang clock
« on: March 03, 2016, 11:35:31 AM »
I have noticed the time and day on postings are off. Probably has to do with the outage a few days ago but I just noticed this morning some post I read around 10:00 Eastern are showing up as today's post. Right now it's 10:33 AM Eastern and the site clock shows 4:31 PM. ( Maybe I just overslept  ;)

I went into my profile, and found my time setting was -1.  I selected "auto-detect", which gave me -7.  Things are now correct.

The Site clock is what is off, time now 12:30 PM Site clock showing 6:29 PM. What time zone is it supposed to be?

Never paid that much attention to the time stamp on my area since it would be correct for west coasters then it would be off for all the others. None of the other forums I visit seem to use the same time as where I'm located but is seems that some of you have chosen to customize your settings to compensate. Was looking at this last night and it appears I changed it some how by looking through the list :( was set on Africa/Abidjan so just changed it back

I see in the settings we've got tones of choices plus UCT but no GMT that I can see.   Guess UCT might be the best choice or just leave it alone?

Since the clock is several hours ahead maybe we can change history. It's now 9:31 tonight. ;D

9:37 pm showing and posted time showing of the latest post matches. It is 3:37Pm eastern time and only 12:37 West Coast so this is wrong however you turn it.

Thanks for the heads up.  I just changed it to Eastern US.  It was set to an African time zone, lol!  Not sure how it got changed, possibly something with the outage.

Showing now the "spring forward" time of one hour off (actual time 6:36am eastern, system showing 7:36am eastern at time of this post)

WHOLE lot closer!

It did the same for me until I changed my profile to auto-detect.
