Placid Report post Posted August 4, 2004 This is kinda off topic, and ill probably get flamed for it but........ .....its also kinda pointless........ Although the british summer is usually non-existent, when it reachers the summer season, the time increases by 1 hour. So technically you should increase the forum time by one hour and therefore should be in BST......... Sorry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darkst Report post Posted August 5, 2004 This is partly an oddity of phpBB (the software that runs the forums). I run a copy at work for my department and have the same limitation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

teranoz Report post Posted August 9, 2004 lol....technically, GMT is not in use, GMT is not applicable because the UK are in BST. GMT is in use (but called different : UTC = Universal Time Coordinate) This is the default time used among licenced radioamateurs and shortwave radiobroadcaststations Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
