My time is messed up on the forum!!
I live on the east coast of the USA just to let you know.
Anyway, just now I was posting something, and I noticed that my time on the forums is 4 HOURS ahead of all my clocks!!!
What is going on?

Welcome aboard, TheoX! Go into your profile and change your timezone! I did the very same thing you did. I was like you 4 hrs behind, I went several days like that. Finally realized I could correct by the timezone. I hope this helps.

Yes Theox. I'm in Virginia and I have to set my time zone to GMT -4. Don't remember what it is when we go off daylight savings time, but the setting is different then.
Hope this helps.

SharonM, I'm also on the east coast. I had my time set at -5 GMT until recently when I noticed I was one hour off. You explained it as due to daylight savings time which makes perfect sense. I didn't think about that,
but I'm sure you are right. So, in the fall we will have to switch from -4 to -5 GMT.
Thanks for clearing up the mystery!

You're very welcome, Gen.
You helped me too! I couldn't remember what I needed to set it on when we go back to regular time. Thanks!
