A reminder about times

Post by orudge_roaming »

In most parts of the world that observe DST, clocks went back or forward, as appropriate, this morning. The server's clock is always set to UTC (GMT), so you need to update the timezone in your profile - back an hour for the northern hemisphere, forward an hour for the southern, as I'm sure you're aware. Of course, if your country doesn't observe DST or changes clocks at a different time, then this doesn't apply to you. ;)

So your post was made at 1:44pm English Time? I think I'm finally getting the hang of this, after 14 years. :mrgreen:

It's only about 5 months. A complete excercise in futility, in my opinion. I look forward to the inevitable thread in the off-topic forum. (-:

Thankfully, some of us (like this server) are able to work to UTC the entire year round.
