I'm wondering how I can change my personal settings so times on the site show up as GMT-0, rather then the current time zone things appear to get time stamped by.

Looked through the various settings and the United Kingdom as a regional setting has been applied, which I thought might take effect on the forum. Although the times are still showing up wrong for me.

Where can I go from here?

Just occurred to I in fact selected a regional forum ... either way, I'm still not able to adjust time zones.

Hi, dhska. I'm afraid that it's not possible to customize one's time setting for these forums

Having only one time zone, is less confusing. At least you have a time table to work with, versus, multiple time zones, where you would have to decipher between user location and the posted time. In other words, it is much easier to have one constant, than to have several.

I can see the logic in that.

Though I'm still considering writing a greasemonkey script.
