posting times

**walli1** · 03-15-2006, 03:56 AM

Am I the only one that gets confused about times that are shown in the "member allocations" forum? I'm on central time and I'll get on here at 2100 hrs (9 PM for you civilians) and the last recorded post will be 3:50 AM (tomarrow). It's like that all day long on here. What's with the posting times.

Walli1. Have you gone into User CP/Edit Options/Date and Time option, and set your time zone?.......

You have to do what Spaf said AND you have to be signed on to see the real posting times. Otherwise you get the default time zone.

Thanks guys. Yes I set my time (a couple times) but I didn't know you had to be signed in for the correct times to show. I don't usually sign in if I'm just going to be on for a short period so that's probably the reason. Thanks again.

Hahahaha you guys are so funny! LMAO... Sorry, couldn't help it since RdPillow and I have to worry about adjusting to our advance 15 hour difference. But to be serious, when i was a newbie back then, someone suggested that i change my PC time setting to EST time. Since then, i've not had any problem with meeting the deadline and trying to figure out the time difference.
Peace to all... P

Spaf,
Am I late 1 hour everyday? If that is the case then it is probably the fact that I didn't factor in the 1 hour daylight savings which occurs every year in the mainland. We don't have dayligh savings here..;-(
