TFVIEWS Posting time is off by One hour.
My guess is the servers lack the software to update to the correct time automatically whenever a day lights saving time gets taken ahead or back one hour. My guess is this needs to be done manually by the owner of the site.

Re: TFVIEWS Posting time is off by One hour.
Servers don't change times, they all run off of UTC - coordinated universal time. Only the forums software adjusts and that's based on the base time I set and then the user's set time preference, and THAT is based on your settings in the user control panel under Board Preferences > Edit Global Settings > Summer Time/DST is in effect: Yes/NoTigermegatron wrote:TFVIEWS Posting time is off by One hour.

See, that one's a camcorder, that one's a camera, that one's a phone, and they're doing "Speak no evil, See no evil, Hear no evil", get it?
