    Forum timestamps are confusing

    It would be more helpful if these message boards referenced Eastern Standard Time (EST). I could tell how old these threads were and how recently they were updated.

    Thanks.

    apropos, you can change the time zone in your profile. Click on "Profile" at the top of the page, then scroll down to where it references time zones. To make it Eastern Daylight Time, you need to set it for GMT-4 hours. Hope this helps!

    at first, it was confusing for me too..

    I had the same problem..

    then I found out one just has to click ‘your account’, then your info, then adjust the time zone for your time. Hope that helps.

    Excellent...thanks for the info. I had the same vexing issue with time stamps as they never made sense. I had no idea they could be adjusted to your time zone until I saw your posting. And i didn't know that GMT-4 hours was equivalent to EST. What needs to be done in the fall when we set the clocks back an hour. Is it GMT-5 or GMT-3 then?

    Not sure about that--I think maybe it takes care of itself. I had to play around with it to get it right to start with, and then I was not on the boards much during the winter as I was terribly busy, so I don't know what happened with it then, sorry.

    Glad I could help though
