Why is it 8 hours from West Coast to East Coast?
Missing something here.

I think the best idea is to set the board clock on UTC/GMT, and then we can select our time offset in our user control panel.
I have my offset selected, but as you note, the system clock seems to have changed again and the hour display is way out of whack...
:confused:

So long as the system clock stays consistant (no matter what) you can make the simple offset adjustment to correct for it. (The offset may be the incorrect time zone, but all that matters is the difference in hours, really.)
I have my control panel timezone offset set to GMT+1, CET, Central European Time, and I am actually in CST. No matter; the hour on the posts is now correct.

West Coast seems to be GMT. Lisbon, Monrovia etc. It is wrong, but it is right!

Uh, ok I know I'm tired over here and it's actually 12:28 AM at the time of this post.
But I'm not seeing anywhere on how to set the board clock!
