Time to set DST on by default. Lurking around with the time different throws me out of whack :S

It's posting the correct time in messages as far as I can tell. Mine came out right. Check your time zone settings in USER CP.

Update: Just looked at your profile in the admin panel and you're on ET. There is no EST/EDT differentiation in vBulletin.

Go to User CP. On the left bar there is an "edit options" link. Click on that and go to the bottom. There is a time zone selection there.

"Time Zone

I see what you mean now. It's actually off two hours on my posts becuase I post from Central Time. So yeah, when you're logged out all post read EDT times. Weird.

Guessing the default time should be that of the target area, IE Cincy
