Good Morning everybody! Why is DU's time still screwed up?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

My computer's clock is right....but the clock on DU shows an hour ahead still.....

What is going on? :shrug:

[KitchenWitch]

1. Good question

No clue!

But hello anyway!

:hi: :hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. Good morning, my dear KW!

I was sorry to not see you last night...but I remembered that you said you might not be on after a strenuous day!

I'm discovering that I like starting threads.....and they don't have to be earth-shaking or really important .......

I'm having so much fun!

Good to see you today!


:hi: :hug:

[lildreamer316]

2. Mornin'

and no clue....simple oversight I'm sure.
Brrr.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. Good morning, lildreamer316!

You are most likely right!

Thanks for coming by .......


:hug:

[merh]

3. Hey ya Peggy

I think the real powers of DU have taken the weekend off. Some screwy things have occurred in their absence, the off clock is just the most obvious.

:hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

10. My dear merh!

Well, they should know better than to leave us all in the lurch this way!

HOW are you? HOpe that things are coming along.....and for your beautiful pup too!

:loveya: :hug:

[merh]

17. Winston is mending nicely.

He has a terrible limp and walks gingerly, but at least he is walking. Of course, he is spoiled rotten, but what the heck. :hug:

:loveya: :hug:

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

4. My DU time is always completely screwed up. Is it GMT or something?

Never seems to bear any relation to time in the States...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. Hey Mayberry!

There is a way to set it to your own local time .....but I no longer remember how!

Perhaps someone here can help you out......I think you have to go into your preferences and do it there.

:shrug:

Thanks for coming by today!

:loveya:

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

13. Hey it was GMT and I changed it in my preferences, thanx. But it is

still an hour ahead, LOL.

[In_The_Wind]

5. I remember when the same thing happened as we turned them ahead.

it took a while to get it all working correctly ...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. I was on last spring.....but I was so NEW that I didn't notice!

I was overwhelmed with just being here.....I kid you not!

Last night the times were REALLY screwed up....it was a mess.....

[In_The_Wind]

19. I was sleeping peacefully in my bed last night as all of the confusion ...

was happening ...

My back and hips were bothering me after my roofing repair earlier in the afternoon. So I took two muscle relaxers and curled up in bed for the evening.

I remember what it felt like to be new at DU! :party: I still feel like a kid in a candy store because there are so many nice people for me to pass some lovely hours with from the comfort of my home.

[Cannikin]

6. They moved the servers to Arizona.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. Right!

And there they don't have DST!


:rofl:

Good one, my dear Cannikin!

[supernova]

8. My guess is, it's something Admins need to do manually

and they haven't done it yet.

Hey Skinner, ELad, EarlG, isn't the time change an automated task? :shrug:

Or, perhaps it is automated and the date is off.

edit: :hi: Peggy! :-)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

16. Good morning, my dear supernova!

I suspect you're right about this.......

You'd think they would have automated this a long time ago......

Of course, if they had, then I couldn't have started my silly thread!

I would have had to think of something else!

The date is right, BTW..

Good to see you today!


:loveya: :hug:

[Mutley]

15. Someone is slacking!

:spank:

Morning Peggy! I saw the pic of your house you posted, but I didn't have time to reply. Beautiful! And I love the flag, too. :D

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. My dear mutley!

I thank you for the very kind words about my house/flag thread!

I had some fun with that......and got to play with my new camera as well......

Yes, looks like the admins are sleeping in today!

Well, I'm sure all will be fixed one of these hours......


:loveya: :hug:

[Heidi]

20. Peggy, THANK YOU, my angel gf!

I'm back and I don't giving a fat rat's a$$ what time it is! You, southlandshari, Skinner, Elad and EarlG are my HEROES today for your advocacy and efforts to get that hideous tombstone out of my profile!

:hug: :bounce: :woohoo: :loveya:

[supernova]

21. You got TS'd?

May I ask why? I can't imagine you would ever get the TS, Heidi. :shrug:

Welcome, back in any case. :-)

[Heidi]

24. Blame the forum's Spam filter.

I was mystified, too, because I couldn't imagine that I'd done anything ban-worthy. (I've been accused of having a "beige" dark side. :rofl: ) When I tried to reply to a post by my gf CaliforniaPeggy this morning during the time change, I got a "you've been caught in the Spam filter and your user account has been revoked" message. So I emailed the Admins and emailed Peggy and asked her to write to Mod southlandshari.

The weird thing is that I had that "Here Lies a Disruptor . . . He disrupted poorly" tombstone in my user profile all day. :puke:

Thanks for the warm welcome back, my friend. :pals:

[In_The_Wind]

22. Oh No ...

Not You :wtf:

What happened ? ? ? !

[Heidi]

25. I think I was caught in the forum's Spam filter.

The funny thing was that I had a "Here lies a disruptor" tombstone in my member profile, so you can imagine how much fun Mr. Heidi / Call Me Wesley had with that all day. :eyes:

Quoting Call Me Wesley, as we smoked on the patio, "Babe, if you're gonna disrupt, you shouldn't do it poorly. I'm sure they're all over you for that 'I'm an Okie from Muskogee' Nighthawks sing-along. That was the nail in your coffin." :rofl:

[In_The_Wind]

26. I agree with Mr. Heidi / Call Me Wesley never disrupt poorly!

raise hell with your high-heels on gf ...

knock 'em dead with your brilliance ...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

27. My dear Heidi......

You are so very welcome...I'm sorry it took so darned long, though!


You were tombstoned! Omigod.....this I did NOT know......wow....

Now there's a glitch of major proportions for you.....

Glad all is well, now......



:woohoo:

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

23. I was wondering the same thing!

i just changed my DU time to the central timezone for a quick fix :P

:hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

28. Hey there, my dear MAHNY!

Thanks for coming by my silly thread....

I've discovered that I LIKE starting threads....

It's an excellent way to pull my friends in, and to get them to talk to me!

I don't know why it took me so long to figure this one out!

Good to see you!


:loveya: :hug:

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

31. oh we know you are such an

attention whore Peggy :silly:

:loveya: anyway :P

[CaliforniaPeggy]

33. *sob* You figured me out........

J/K......

I love ya too!

:loveya:

[bigwillq]

29. Morning Peggy!

It seems like I've been awake forever. The time change always does that to me! How are you?

A day off me for! I'm at the man's house. He's working until 4 so I'll be chatting with all my DU friends! :hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

30. Hi my dear bigwillq!

I know just what you mean...I feel as though I've been awake a long time as well......

It is just a tiny bit of jet lag...only we didn't get to go anywhere!

I am good, thanks!

It will be good to see you out and about the Lounge today!


:loveya: :yourock:

[bigwillq]

32. I'll be around the Lounge

but going to spend some time in GD: CIA LEAK. I had long hours on Friday and Saturday. Didn't get a chance to even read the indictment in full. Need to catch up on a few things regarding that matter.

It's such a lovely day here in CT--sunny and like 65 degrees, I should be outside! :hi:
