Title: Why the forum time hasn't been changed yet?
Post by: smith coins on October 25, 2015, 03:17:43 PM
As we know today the time has been changed for 1 hour backward.
Sunday, 25 October 2015, 02:00:00 clocks were turned backward 1 hour to Sunday, 25 October 2015, 01:00:00

And noticed that the forum time hasn't been changed yet, will it be updated automatically or the mod/admin will change it manually?

Change your time offset by one hour in your profile if you're bothered by it.

Theymos will reset the time at exactly 2:00 AM on November 1, 2015, when Mr. Cheese in the sky winks his way. It has been written, it shall be done.

Bitcointalk forum date and time currently is October 25, 2015, 04:33:02 PM
And i think this is not the U.S time.
@sato.shirt i know that i can change manually but it would be better automatically for all.

Why did you have to go and tell them?

@Smith Coins

This forum is in fact run on US time since the Administrators are US residents.

Well known fact.

Well ok guys, we learned another fact about the forum :), but i was confused when i see that the forum time is London time.
In europe the time changes in the last Sunday in March and the last Sunday in October.
While in US it changes in the second Sunday in March and 1st Sunday in November.
Locking the thread, i think everything is explained now.

No, the default forum time is UTC, which doesn't use daylight savings. If daylight savings affects you, you need to update the offset in your profile whenever it happens.
