The time stamped on forum posts, is that server time or is that the poster's time?  If it is server time, what time zone is the server using?  A bit curious.

server time is PST. but you should be able to set your own timezone. you can easily test this - what time was your last forum post? :P

I'm not worried about my time, I'm curious as to the time of the posts from other people.  Is the time on the post their time or server time?

It looks like your message is timed to my zone, EST/EDT.
