Time Change

Kerry W · Time Change

In order for the correct time to display on the forum, when we change the time in fall and spring, you have to go into your profile and update your time settings.

If you're on the East Coast of the US, you should change your time settings to GMT - 5 hours. Midwest would be GMT - 6 hours, etc. If you don't spring forward or fall back...you won't have to change your settings.

Thank you!

My pleasure...I'll try to remember to remind everyone in the spring too! Laughing

I don't think I've ever SET my time zone. I have no idea what it is. I have seen people say things like what you've said, Kerry ... "If you're on the East Coast of the US, you should change your time settings to GMT - 5 hours". But I am not on the east coast. I understand, and can set, MST and MDT (Mountain Standard Time and Mountain Daylight [Saving] Time), but, though I suspect GMT means "Greenwich Mean Time", if I'm right about that, I'm still screwed because I don't know how Mountain time relates to Greenich time.

You'd be GMT - 7 hours, Jane...if you change it to that, and the posts look like they've been made at the right time for you, personally...then you've set it to the right time. Pacific would be GMT - 8 hours. In the spring, you add an hour to your time, so you'd be set (for daylight savings time), at GMT - 6 hours. If you have any trouble, just let me know...anyone...not just Jane. Laughing

Mine's at 7 right now, without me changing it. So I guess it was wrong all summer long. Mind you, who cares? I don't look at WHEN someone posted. I only look at the WHAT of it.
