Clock differences

beenthere · Apr 15, 2003

Anyone else noticed the "big" difference in posted time vs actual local time? Seems there is a 13-14 minute difference, such as a posted time of 9:44 pm and an actual local time of 9:30 pm. It is a minor nuisance when looking at the posts in the last 30 minutes, for example.

It's not a big problem, just more of a curiousity as to why the site clock is that far off. ????

I asked about it before, and didn't get an answer. It seems to be accelerating, too. Time must be flyin' by in AZ. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

That happened a long time ago, and Muhammad got it corrected. I think it was the server TBN uses that got the time off. The last time I looked we were only 10 minutes off, but guess it's gotten to be more than that now.

Yep, 15 minutes on this post.

Yeah, our server keeps getting the time off... I'll bug somebody about it. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I have a little freeware program that I've loaded on my computer called "Atomic Clock", available from World Time Server. I don't know if it would work for your setup, but it checks my computer's clock once a day and corrects any drift.
