Clock going back/forward

[THECORBYLOON]

ABE due to the clocks going back the sytem hasn't coped wi BST and GMT and it thinks 1-2am BST is the same as 1-2am GMT. It has re-ordered the postings to fit in according to the time regardless of whether it was BST or GMT (it thinks 1.30 BST is before 1.40 GMT.) The postings are out of sync now and it's added to the mayhem.

Can I suggest that the system keeps GMT as its time and that postings in future will show GMT and not BST?

Hi Corb. I've just noticed the time is now added. (I've been away) Yoiks what about Australian summertime. People will think I'm up at 2am tapping away. It's good to know what time it is over there but now you've confused me again! anyway its nearly 2pm in the afternoon here so when I post this it'll be good to see the time difference.

[graemer]

That can't be right?

G'day graemer! YOU'RE confused? Reading ma question again, I'M confused! What I should have written is, a posting at 1.50 a.m BST (12.50 a.m. GMT) is showing AFTER a posting sent 30 minute later at 1.20 a.m. GMT because 1.20 a.m. is before 1.50 a.m, and it ignored the BST time difference. Now if you don't mind, I can feel the will to live ebbing away....

I am absolutely overwhelmed by this knowledge. Gonna call up me mates stranded in Cancun, let em know just how hard life is here, what with Q/A sites one hour out of proper synch.

Something needs to be done about this. A national referendum perhaps?

[THECORBYLOON]

This site is INTERNATIONAL so a full-scale debate at the UN is in order..................

This site is NOT international, all users are based on a town Intranet in Corby. We're all just down the road mate. And Coffee Anan Boutros Gali Boutros doesn't even know we exist!
