You know we were REALLY close yesterday afternoon as well. I was sitting here, spamming as per the norm.. then I noticed we had 11 users on!! I stayed on a few extra minutes to see if we'd get the record. :)

Early thread derailment:

Why is the time off on these forums? I am relaticely certain that CST is GMT -6.. yet the posting times are about an hour behind.

Go into your profile and change your times to GMT-5 (I think) that should fix it for you.

But I am not in GMT -5.. :)


Kidding, I will do that.

I just wanted to make you guys aware of this. :)

When you are in daylight savings time, you are indeed -5. The rest of the year? -6 :)

So I have to change this every time we change our clocks? Spring forward, fall back and all that? What kind of software is this? I am a dumb user ... this is too much.. AAAAAAAH!!!!

*starts to panic*

I agree that it sucks, but the bulletin board software is used world wide and most international users could really care less about daylight savings time. If we just stopped changing out clocks, the world would be a better place. :)

Then I suppose we should all start using metric system, eh?

Pfft.. That makes absolutely no sense!! :D

Great idea. I would be spared of some mathematics sometimes, if you would just agree on that almost perfect system that we use too :twisted:

Btw. i have to change clocks too, can't this board software do that automaticly? I mean... year 2004... high tech age... and this board can't set time by itself twice a year? :shock:

Perfect system???

We all know it makes more sense for water to freeze at 32 degrees and boil at 212. *grumbles* Water freezing at 0 and boiling at 100.. BAH! Lunacy I tell you.

I need to also note, that Europe and America do not do their clock changes on the same day or even week sometimes. So even if the board did change the hour we would still be screwed up from time to time.

But now I am curious about that feature and am going to look in to it. Perhaps I can write a customization.

I, ahm, think i'm understanding your point.
I'll just get used to do things by hand ;)
