    When I post a message, it is time stamped 4 hours ahead of my Pacific Time. This means that the server is in the Atlantic Time Zone so PC must be hosted in Nova Scotia, Price Edward Island, or New Brunswick.

    Or you need to adjust time settings under user options. Got to User CP (control panel) at the top of the page and select Edit Options on the left side of the page. Toward the bottom is a drop-down where you can select your time zone.

    All my time stamps are correct, and I'm in the Eastern zone.

    That was it. For some reason, PC reset my options as I should have realized when the new format showed up a couple of days ago. I had to go through and check everything.

    PriusChat is hosted in the great web cloud, so it's scalable should we all log on at once. Doing some IP sleuthing, it mostly hangs out in Hillsboro, near me.

    just checking

    Mine is out by an hour, maybe because of daylight saving.

    On some changeover several months ago, my daylight savings time setting was reset.

    This resulted in my clock being an hour off, even though it was correctly set to United States Eastern Time.

    I just went in and reset the daylight savings time setting to auto detect.
