Which one of you is responsible for it this time?

I found a half eaten twix on the Nuklear-Time Discombopulator, it was jamming the wedges of the time tube.

Also for reference, forum time for me right now is 12:49 pm while my Pc clock shows 16:55 pm and i'm on GMT -2 . if that helps any.

So, what's this, about a four-hour difference?

Yes.

Again.

I'd love to know why our server does this.
vBulletin seems to be just as confused as we are.

I just added a small mod to our footer to show the actual server's reported time (which vBulletin then uses to display time) under the forum's current time. Folks using Eastern (GMT-5) should see the same values for both, of course, while the rest should see an appropriate offset from that time, but anyone let me know if that's not the case. I'll ping shiney.

The server time is still four hours off.

As I probably wasn't clear -- it's going to be off until shiney sees this and does whatever with the server (rebooting it / fixing its time settings).

What crazy bullshit causes it to happen, anyway?

Power failures mainly. Anytime we rebootski. I had already set the global variable to fix it but it got overwritten and I keep forgetting to re-update it.

I had already set the global variable to fix it

Which?
I just went in and set a timezone, as there seemed to be none set (assuming I read things correctly). But it was already displaying the correct time, so I guess I can't really check if that was enough to "solve" it at the moment.

That's "supposed" to be the one, but I am suspicious that the BIOS of the machine itself is messed up. Which I don't really have access to. :B

We drifted again this evening. Did a remote reboot to no avail, so I manually set the clock to the correct time.

edit: and it's now chosen to ignore that

Keep your eyes on it, I guess. I will.
