You may have been wondering why the times on the forum are off. Well, that's because daylight savings just ended (hopefully you've already set your home clocks back an hour ;)). Anyways, I was momentarily confused about why the time was wrong, so here are the steps for turning off DST:

1. Click on the UCP button to go to your User Control Panel.

2. Click on the text that says "Board Preferences" (found on the navigation panel on the left side).

3. You will automatically go to the "global settings" page, where you can change, among other things, your time zone and clock settings.

4. You will see the text "Summer time/DST is in effect" near the bottom of the page. Change the bubble to "no". Click "submit".

And voila! The times are correct. (If they still aren't, you probably need to change your timezone. This setting is found on the same page as the DST time change.)

I hope this helps avoid any confusion! :)

In Christ,
~ Evening

We don't have daylight savings time. Thanks for the help, though!

Yes, that was great! It took me a long time to find how t change my time before, so this will be a great help. :)
