Setting forum time?

I swear that I didn't make a post that was 2 hours ago yet it was only 2 minutes ago. I made a post on 9:20 am my time but it says it was made 2 hours earlier. Is there a setting on here where I can set the correct timezone for my account?

    Perhaps though I think something's wrong with just the specific thread registering the same post time anytime someone posts.

    Hi @paradiseplanet

    The forum should display your local time.

    If the time is showing incorrectly for you, could you please clear your browser cookies and cache.

    If the issue remains, could please you link me a comment with incorrect time-stamp and take screenshot of the time as it shows for you (feel free to test post here :) )?

    Thanks!

    Thanks, I found that it's one thread here: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/933180/useless-patch#latest

    That thread shows for me that the last post was on Jan 12 which is yesterday for me, but as of typing this the last post shows came at 4:51 AM today, Jan 13:

    I'm having that issue with that thread too. I've seen it happen with other threads before. It usually happens after a moderator posts in the thread to remove some comments. I hope that helps to narrow down the problem! :)

    Are you logged in at the time of viewing? It generally does not show the correct time zone if you are not logged in.

    Very interesting!

    Thank you very much for the screenshots :)

    This does look like some form of a minor bug, I'll do my best to look into it.
