Can anyone let me know how to change the times from GMT to EST.

Thank you,

Don't bother. As I write this post the time is around 1:15pm EST which should make it 6:15pm GMT, but the massageplanet.net clock says it's 6:15am GMT. Which makes Fred's clock off by 12 hours. massageplanet.net used to have the clock set at EST even when it said it was GMT, so all you had to do was set your timezone as GMT and you had the correct Toronto time. If you want to set your time to EST go to your Control Panel, click "Edit Options", and set "Time Offset -5:00 hours EST. This will set your clock 5 hours offset from London time. But since massageplanet.net never correctly gives the real GMT time, your won't have the real EST either.

So massageplanet.netadmin please set GMT time as the time in England and we will all set our clocks appropriatly.

Yes, please.

There seems to have been some sort of "flakiness" of time representations; sometimes time being expressed as GMT+5, sometimes as GMT, sometimes as GMT+/-12.

Seeing as how the web site software claims it's supporting adjustments based on GMT, then it would probably be a slick idea for the time on the computer to be set based on GMT so that the documentation on "what to do" would be appropriate. (That being to set your profile to indicate GMT+5).

Even that isn't crucially important; what is really crucial is simply for the clock to be at least somewhat disciplined such that it reports, an hour from now, a time that is an hour later than what it is reporting now.

I'd suggest running NTP to permanently deal with the matter. Stick an NTP daemon/service on the server, have it point at time.nrc.ca to get a time "signal," and forget about it forever afterwards.

I set my time to +7 hrs Bankok time so now at least the time is correct but I've skipped a day. According to massageplanet.net it is now April 27th. I guess we've got an Interntional Dateline in operation here.
