Jafoolycake Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 What even is the timezone for posts on the news section? & same goes with times that are communicated in-game/emails/forums. It's so confusing for so many people not knowing when you actually mean when you post things. I do appreciate that forum maintenance posts do now include PT/ET/UTC times too, credit where credit's due so good work on that Kibbelz, but it needs to be upheld elsewhere too. i.e. the latest Shugo Game event news post has a time of 11-Dec 12:00-14:00... but what timezone is that? Since we're now apparently hosted on an AWS us-east-1 instance (which is in Virginia) the server time would be UTC-5 and everyone always "it's server time". However, I also end up seeing posts that show UTC-6 as a default, like yesterday's maintenance post. So is it UTC-5? Is it UTC-6? Better yet, there's no need to even answer that when you can just actually put the offset value next to the time itself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
