Canadian Clocks Gone Back an Hour?

This was posted at 10.38pm British time. Please see how that compares with what the server has added at the bottom of this post.

As the Report Post and PM the Moderators doesn't seem to have worked for the last month or so, I'll make this a public thread.

Please feel free to delete it once the problem has been sorted.

I assume the Canadians, where the site is hosted, have put their clocks back an hour for the winter, as all the times quoted here are now an hour slow.

Could this please be sorted out.

Alternatively you could change your timezone in your profile to GMT + 1.

I haven't changed a thing.

It was correct three hours ago, now it's an hour adrift, whether you are logged IN or OUT, so it's a problem at the server end.

So, did you say this earlier or have you yet to say it?

Action should be taken immediately... in about an hour, (if I'm following this correctly).

Indeed. I think you misundertand, Nick.If you amend your profile as suggested, all times will be displayed correctly.

Until the server clock is changed again, of course... Smile

Changing your profile only corrects it while you're logged IN.

Unless I'm posting, I always stay logged OUT, when it's still wrong.

oh i wouldn't count on action nick, it seems the moderators have given up and gone. unless of course, bearing in mind how fashionable creating separate forums seems to be, we are in a time-shifted version of tvforum.

if the soderators reply at all, it'll probably be a rude one liner telling you not to waste their time - like the one i got off *mentioning no names* ... the one that lives across the pond

I'm getting to the point where ANY reply, no matter how rude, would be a PLEASANT surprise.

Would changing the time of the clock on our pc's help?

Oh don't be absurd. The fact of the matter is, this change affects this website, therefore it is the duty of the moderators to correct this anamoly, not for us to go faffing with our PC's.

Or, indeed, our individual profiles; as we'll only have to change them all back again in three weeks time, when OUR clocks go back to GMT.
