Site time is wrong,

[Skye]

i'd say about 15 mins....check my post time and your comp time?
some people noticed it too, like freedom. any problems with the site?

EDIT: please know that you might read this late so post here and check your post time and your comp time =P

The hours are determined by the time zone you set in your preferences, however the minute you post goes by a timestamp from the server.

Basically, it's not going to reflect your time exactly.

[Tenyasyugan]

I see what you mean... Maybe they'll fix it now that you've brought it up.

[Ta-Chan]

Oh, I notice it now too

But seriously, 15 minutes doesn't make THAT much of a difference

[Skye]

@Shamdeo: so your saying my comp screwed with the sites files?

or the online time zone messed?

@Ta-Chan, i almost forgot to take the chicken off the oven cause of the problem...
so it might be in social life

[Tenyasyugan]

I think it's a server issue... Not sure though...

[Aqua.]

It's a server problem, I doubt mods or admins can just fix it like that. You'd need that spdude or whoever's in charge to fix it, but good luck with that.

Well, that is IF it is a server problem.

No, not at all. It's just that the hour portion that you see on your post is determined by the timezone that you're posting from and the minutes and seconds portion are determined by the server's clock.

I hope that answers your question.

ah ok, for a min though i thought i would have ban'd for being automaticly screwing with the sites files...
hope we know what to do

[Vandread]

Well the server's clock could use some adjusting.

Heh, that's actually not possible unless you yourself new the logins and specific adresses for the server itself. Even a DDoS attack couldn't really offset the clock by that much.

It's just a matter of manually adjusting the clock or learning to compensate the difference of time.

just to be wondering, how long has the site updated the server clock?

@Sham: if some how it did happen i wouldnt been that smart to do it,

[Jolteon]

I understand what's going on,but yea.. they do need to fix it. 15 minutes does matter,and having the exact time is always easier.

The server's clock can sometimes run behind or ahead because of slight differences between most clocks that are non-atomic. These are usually adjusted when the time difference becomes noticable. If you ask a network technician at a computer lab or a business, they could probably tell you about requests to adjust a network's clock to ensure that each machine is synchronized correctly.

It's just a matter of syncing the clock from time to time because the forum is not a network using NTP.
