PPT Time?

Hi all, not sure where to put this, but is Pinkpt's time meant to be GMT? If so it's an hour behind . . .

The default time probably is GMT, however, you can change the time to your local time in your profile. (For reference, you can go to your profile by clicking on the link at the top of the page.)

If you scroll down to the bottom, there should several drop downs, one of them is for timezones. All you have to do is select the correct timezone and press submit.

As we're in British Summer Time, and the list doesn't actually have BST, just select "(GMT+1) CET (Brussels, Madrid, Paris)"

Thanks! I thought it was like neo, set for everyone

Edit: Just checked my profile does say GMT, and since i'm in England, thats correct. Yet the clock is still 1 hour behind . . o_O

Forums do not account for DST, we're always an hour behind during the time DST is in effect.

Shouldn't the forums be universally set at NST? it would be easier to refer to times without whaving to convert between time zones

By NST do you mean Neopian Standard Time? There are many people here who do not play Neopets anymore, so that wouldn't be very useful. I'd think it'd be much more helpful to have the option to set it to your local time. If you'd prefer the time set to NST, you can feel free to change it so in your profile, though.
