A Bug In Forum's Clock?

<div class="IPBDescription">Says clock is 20:50 instead of 21:50</div> Time here is now 21:50 GMT+2 with daylight savings or whatever.

Forum says that:

You may adjust the base time zone
The time (including your current adjustment) is:
Jun 19 2003, 08:50 PM

when clock is 9:50 PM. If I uncheck the daylight savings the clock is then 7:50 PM. So.. the solution would be that I'll switch to GMT+3, but I see no point in that because I live in GMT+2 (=EET, Eastern European Time) timezone.

    That wasn't the damn point in my text. I have a clock on my desktop, in fact two (digital and wrist watch).. as well one in my PC's desktop. But why implement a feature in the forums if it doesn't work correctly?

    the only reason for the forum times would be to know when people post, you already know what the values mean at a glance wheres the problem? ;0

    The problem was with the server clock. It has been fixed, and times should be correct now. Sorry for the confusion, we've had some... issues.. lately.

    Erm..

    You may adjust the base time zone
    The time (including your current adjustment) is:
    Jun 20 2003, 12:36 AM

    It's 00:36 here now.. and.. is 12:36 AM same as 00:36? Or does that type of time even exist.. I thought it would be 00:36 AM instead... Well, I'm not sure about those AM's or PM's, because we have 24hr clock here in Finland (19:36 instead of 7:36 PM, for example.. if someone didn't know it already) <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    12:36 AM is the same as 0036. The 12:36 PM would read 1236. There is no 24th hour in a 24-hour clock system, so it resets back to 0. All of the AM hours are the first 12 hours, and you just add 12 to all times after 12 Noon for accurate 24-hour time.

    I hate that AM/PM stuff. Can't you use the 24h method like the rest of the world? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    No seriously it's really annoying.

    And 00:36 = 12:36
