The time

Post by Capn Ahab »

Dear Mr Taz,

Why does it say it's 8:07 pm on the forum when the actual time is 9:05 pm. Surely in these days of technological mastery this is a simple thing to fix. Ergo, you must be a lazy bastard.

You should see your timezone in the top right hand corner below the menu bar.
If it doesn't read "All times are UTC [DST]", change the timezone in your profile area.
Taz... or Chris. It's up to you.

Coordinated Universal Time. It's the internet standard time. The words got moved around as a compromise between English and French speakers.

Annoyingly you can't just set it to British time, though. Meaning you have to change your time setting when the clocks go back/forward manually, or just leave it on UTC. Bah.
