Anyone know what time the forums clock is set with? I just posted something at 3:20 pm and it says I posted at 12:48. I can see the hours being different but the minutes should be the same unless it's Newfoundland time.

I don't know. The clock on our VCR always blinks 12:00.   ;D

I have been wondering the same thing!  Maybe it is an alien time zone!

Honolulu is 5:30 am. Maybe "they" set the clock for the middle of the Pacific so as to not upset anybody.

I think the forum uses the server time.
Usually servers use a protocol to automatically synchronize the time (in general is UTC)
it is possible this server was set to manual and time never properly set
