You can change it in User Control Panel --> Board Preferences.

Unfortunately I am pretty sure the server is located in arizona. As 81 knows, they do not observe DST so it is screwing up the time.

And actually, setting it to Halifax time would make it two hours ahead of what it should be. You want Central Time.

Go to "Board Preferences," and just change "DST is in effect" to "No." Tada.

campion {l Wrote}:I have an idea. Instead of moving threads to MaryAnn's as quickly as you can, why don't you turn the clock back on this website so that we're not all posting on Newfoundland time until next summer?

Of course, this is a prime "move to MaryAnn's" thread, and I appreciate the irony of that.


They do move posts and threads with Zander like speed.

Why did this topic appear above the tacked threads? Are you using your MTBS powers? Are you abusing them? I have a keen eye for this abuse stuff now. If they don't like the thread, like Stalin, they banish it to Siberia aka MA's. We need a Solsenitzen or however you spell that guys name that wrote the book about life in the Gulag. Maybe I can write a book about all my threads being banished to MA's and make lots of money off it like the Rat Pack is doing with this website.

End of daylight savings

Colored names, can we roll back the clocks? The discrepancy between the Nexus and the Real World is fucking with my head. :suicide

Thanks.

I have updated everyone's record in the database to reflect the proper DST setting.

How DID you find the time? I mean moving threads around and all is the primary mod function. Was overtime involved?

It's Daylight Saving Time. There's no "s."

I'll shut up now.

You better shut up if you know what is good for you.

Hey, If we get the sun up an hour earlier that means the bitch goes down an hour earlier so tell me what daylight are we saving or is it Daylight Come and I wanna go Home time?

I say we stop the earth's rotation for an hour..that's the ticket.

I am brilliant.
