I'm in EST, but when I post a new topic in the forums it says I posted it three hours ago. Is there any way to fix it?

Thanks for the feedback.

I've created a formal issue: https://github.com/danneu/guild/issues/54

Looking at my code, it's not obvious to me what I could be doing wrong. I'll have to dig into it.

@TwilightDragon:

Can you visit this page on the device you're having an issue with and then copy/paste what you see?

https://jsfiddle.net/6vnqumb2/embedded/result/

For instance, I see:

d:
Sun Mar 22 2015 19:00:08 GMT-0600 (CST)

d.toGMTString():
Mon, 23 Mar 2015 01:00:08 GMT

there we go ^^

@TwilightDragon: Looks like your device is set to the wrong timezone.

You said you're in EST, yet your browser thinks it's in PDT. There's your problem. There are three hours of difference between EST and PDT.

Change your device's timezone to EST and it should work correctly.

The thing is, it's perfectly fine for iwaku and other sites. It's just this one that's giving me the problem. :c

@TwilightDragon Other sites are are ignoring your system settings and calculating your time offset.

It's something I'd like to do soon, too. But until then, the Guild trusts your system to know what timezone it's in. :(

@TwilightDragon I'm not sure this is an "issue" I'm going to fix now that I've taken a look at it.

I think I'm doing you a favor by getting you to fix your system. XD

True, haha.

I went to fix the time settings but I realized that the browser is in EST... so I don't think it's the problem. :c

Thank you for being patient!
