Brent,
I know it's the New Year and you are having loads of fun playing with your new and impressively fast server, but it appears the CC clock that logs in out posting time is off by approximately 8:15 -behind our actual time...at least CST.
When you have a moment, could you take a look
John Russell..........Your Texas friend!

ps. the actual time I will be posting this is10:52am CST

I guess I need to clarify. 8 hours & 15 minutes. I have my time zone set at CST and always have.

I was just trying to make people late to their meetings!

Should be pretty close now. Take care my friend.

Well, it must be that the midwest is just that far behind the west coast 'cause it still reads 6:43am

Present time here is 2:55pm CST.

when you go to your user profile screen, you have to pick a zone off of the GMT. I believe my "zone" selection is somewhere is the middle east, as that's what give me the most accurate "real time" posting time for me. If I click on the "US central time zone" then it's off by hours. I did that at first, and wondered why soo many people were posting in the middle of the night. Changed the zone in my control panel, and viola, it "matches" better. Been off by a couple of minutes, but not a big deal to me. I didn't like the 7-8 hour difference. Go to the Control panel and see if changing it there helps.

BINGO!
I changed from central time (-6hr GMT to +2hr GMT, somewhere in Africa) and the time is correct.
Thanks Goddess!

Kristen,

Why so many people are posting in the middle of the night. Because with peoplein all time zones some of them will be posting in the middle of your night.

Kristin,
I guess I slept a bit too long in 2005, so I changed my time zone to reflect the correct time and I now reside in Kaliningrad, South Africa and am on Eastern European time. Damn!!! I am going to realllllllly have to do some planning on making the monthly meetings in Dallas now

It's pretty sad that the nations clock is now related to this website. Doesn't anyone have clocks in their homes anymore?
Hell, just look at your cell phone! Do you call Bill Gates when the time on your PC is wrong?

Get real
