Time Zones

Don't think it's just me but all of the times of postings seem to be 6 hours ahead of the actual time? (I checked profiles etc and all is set for GMT but seem to have posts being tagged as 6 hours inthe future??) This is happening on any PC I log in through...

Any ideas anyone?

Yes, this has been reported to the admins and presumably is being worked on.

I get correct times if I subtract 6 hours from my true timezone. For example, I am at GMT-5.

GMT-5 - 6 hours = GMT-11

If that math would make your timezone GMT-13 or lower, add 18 hours, instead. For example, suppose you actually live at GMT-11.

GMT-11 + 18 hours = GMT+7

For some reason the forum gives me the time +1 hour from actual time. Common problem or should I just use a wrong timezone to offset the difference?

Sounds like a DST (Daylight Savings Time) offset issue.
