I'm a professional quality assurance technician slash code release technician for EA Games, mobile division. By profession, our games are reviewed down the smallest, most anal, and vain details possible to ensure near perfection and top notch cellular phone gaming experience. Being both anal and vain ensures a better structure to the end user. So, after a long night of checklists from hell, I tend to find little matters such as the time of an edited post to be incredibly trivial.
Granted, it's an awesome find to notice that the posts are 1) following a server timestamp, 2) miscalculating a server/user timestamp, or 3) any other matter of reason that comes with coding. Much like I don't see the triviality of 90% of the issues that we find in our games, when they're closed and released with bugs, I don't see the problem with an edit timestamp being six hours in the future. If it interferes with the overall function of the site, then fix it. If not, then what's the point of wasting that programming time when it can be better allocated elsewhere? |

Does it really matter if you're editing all your posts in the future? Are we that vain and anal that it needs to be corrected?
I edit my stories all the time, but never seemed concerned about any of my edits being 6 hours in the future. It's just an edit. Unless, you're trying to create an alibi for something you "didn't" do. |

the board doesn't store the edits with an actual adjustable timestamp, it just stores them as text, using the server time. quite annoying and no one's ever fixed on any acmlmboard I've seen, even the "official" one which is now on its third main coder. |

Sadly, nothing I can really do about it (without modifying currently existing stuff). |

Originally posted by Sajin of the Gorotto Sea i wasnt talking about that. it's already adjusted. i'm talking about the timestamp for the edits i make. my first sentence already explained that the real timestamp is correct =/ i wonder if anyone else notices if theirs does it too or is it just me? |

Adjust your offest zone in your profile to the correct timezone, thats what I did |

Hmm, probably just a glitch on the board or something. I don't think it would be anything you're actually doing yourself. |

i make a post, and it says the right time, but when i edit it, at the bottom, the edit's time is 6 hours ahead of what the time should be. what am i doing wrong? |
