Just a note, the forum is still running under Daylight Savings for some reason ;) I noticed when a post I made at 3:30 or so local, posted with a time of 4:30 ish ;)

The forum saves the posts in UTC. The daylight savings is a user setting in your control panel on the forum.

I turned off the forum-wide "IS DST" setting yesterday, but it didn't change the times that are displayed for me.

OK .. turned off my DST setting .. which is strange as most of these usually control an automatic switch to reflect DST. However, the DST indicator no longer displays at the bottom of the forum.
