What the hell is up with the time on this wiki? It's 11:56 pm EST so therefore, in UTC it would be 4:56. But, no, it isn't. It says that it's 4:20 am UTC. Is there some sort of glitch with the time? --T3 04:21, 24 Yoon 2011 (UTC)

- Good, I'm not going crazy. That's a relief. Do you know if old edits are affected? I just checked the history of an article I wrote where I mention the time and the time still seems off. Meh. --T3 04:37, 24 Yoon 2011 (UTC)
- Exactly. It's 08:45 BST time, so it should be 07:44 UTC time. It GODDAMN stupid!

- Server time appears to be off; been that way for the last few months. Depending on how the database stores revision timestamps and whatnot, it could affect old ones as well... anyhow, why are you complaining? Ain't it alligatol or whatever you sproings go for? ~

- It's Illogicopedian time, so I guess it isn't supposed to make sense. Yeah, I'm gonna say it's that because it sounds like it might be a beeyatch to try and rectumify. :P -- Hindleyak Converse • ?blog • Click here! 12:10, 24 Yoon 2011 (UTC)
- This is why this matters to me. Ahem. Whenever I get on here and someone edits a forum I was on or my talk page or THEIR talk page or anything (pretty much any conversation I'm in), I like to see whether or not they're still on. Normally, if it was 2:43am EST, I could look at their most recent edit and if it said something like 7:39am UTC, I would think, "Hey, they're still on", but now, I have no idea and I'm forced to make a minor edit somewhere so I can subtract the times between my edit and their edit. It's just a mess. I appreciate Illogic but I kinda want to know what time something was made. If it's a disaster to change, disregard all I have said because it's no reason to have admins wasting their time for something like this. --T3 18:02, 24 Yoon 2011 (UTC)
