    HI mods and admin

    there is a time error on vbulletin, in the bottom it shows
    All times are GMT +5. The time now is 12:46 am.

    but I am GMT +4 I am in Yerevan, Armenia.

    Is it possible to correct it?

    I'm pretty sure that it's a vB issue. Ever since they moved up the DST change a few weeks, the internet time zones have been messed up. When vB updated the DST, all it did was move it forwards one hour by switching time zones for everyone. You can change your time zone in the user options part, but if its the correct time, just the wrong time zone, then all you can basically do is ignore it. (ex: my time zone is GMT-5 but it says GMT-4)

    I know but if I change from there to the correct GMT I will have a wrong time. If I want to have the right time, I need to have a wrong GMT

    You can adjust your date/time settings in the UserCP.

    for real, I don't care to have GMT +5. I just noticed the error/bug in the forum, then I thought suggesting to correct it might be of interest to Shawn and other admins. We have a vB forum also at webmasters.am and the GMT works fine for me, but here it doesn't. I just thought that you (admins and mods) need to know about it :)

    sorry for taking your time guys
