The post times are about 2 hours out. On some forums, it matters a great deal how old the post is.

Up to you to sort it out! Go into your UserCP, then Settings and Options, go down to Date and Time and make sure you are set to Automatically Detect DST Settings.

I see your post as 8.47 so the MSE time is correct.

What browser are you using? For example Opera servers are based in Europe I think, so the times showing are European times. hth0

I have the same problem as the OP. My PC clock is correct and, when I view posts in MSE without logging in, the time corresponds. However, when I log in, the time showing on forum posts goes back by 2 hours, eg I see the OP's post as 6.47pm (PC clock remains correct)08 wins £3000+ :j09 wins £4408:j2010 (6 months off) £2004:j2011 £10,003 :j 2012 - £6013 :j2013 wins £8500 :j 2014 £5530 so far....0

How stupid am I?? I was trying to change it on my laptop control panel - didn't realise the people who responded were talking about the user control panel on here :doh:
How embarassing! It's right now though!
