rofl! My bad. I kind of like military time.

But yeah. They're the same for me too. I don't know what's up. Maybe it's just confusing?

I'm used to military time, it's fine with me. I'm just glad the dates are now right.

This time issue is really starting to annoy me, and I can't seem to fix it the way I want it to be. Maybe this is a new Stable Version thing that can't be reformatted to better suit our needs. I don't really know.

But Irina pointed this one out to me. The times on the front page listing of the forum show as being made for Central time, not Eastern Standard. They're an hour behind.

I'd very much like for the forum to be set standard at Eastern Standard US time. I thought I could fix this in the backend under the forum configuration, but after trying nothing changes.

Though it would be very nice to be able to set it up so that users can pick what time-zone they're in themselves. Like we used to be able to do with the proboard, as also brought up by Irina.

Maybe it's something in the CSS file? The configuration getting screwy because of the personalizations we're making? I don't really know, and I'm starting to get all kinds of frustrated with doing my administrative job. Tech support does not become me.

This could be a rant...

I also don't like this "1 month, 1 week ago" business that shows on posts. Or however many minutes ago, or what have you. That requires math that I fail at doing. What happened to the good old fashioned precise Date/Time thing?

What seems like the simplest thing out of whack/sync to us, can generally result in hours of pouring over php/code for Mike.

While I think it's good we keep a running list of all the small bugs we come across, I don't think the fact that the time's off is something you should let get under your skin.

Keeping Mutual Endeavors running can only be a hair raising experience. I think that we should put priority on certain bugs and learn to be a little more understanding of others.

For instance: "NO ONE CAN MAKE A POST OMG MIKE HALP!," would probably be a really good high priority bug as opposed to, "some times my quote marks look funny," as a small cosmetic bug

I know it's frustrating. And then I imagine how frustrating it must be for Mike, who is the only person able to fix anything (I suck). So...breath in through the nose, and out through the mouth?

Oh I know. Small matters. Just letting them out before I forget about them. Hence why I said it could count as a rant. XD

Re:Forum Timestamp Issues 5 Months, 1 Week ago Karma: 26  
The timestamp issue is BAAAAAAACK again. For whatever reason, posts are showing up as 5 hours earlier than the actual time of posting.

As an example, I am making this post at 8:21 am EST.

I'm seeing it too. I think maybe the server location time changed and I wasn't informed of it. It used to be offset at -5, and that would make the difference. Add 5 to the 3:00 something it was showing for you and you get the 8:00 AM instead. For me it's currently 8:32 PM. Not sure if I fixed it or not. We'll see.
