Just noticed something a little odd, no big deal, no need to change anything, it's more a curiosity item than anything else. Then again, maybe it's just me.

I happen to notice that the forum is telling me that my time is GMT +11 7:20am

Well, the GMT +11 is correct, we're on daylight saving time right now but the 7:20am should actually be 8:20am. For some strange reason the forum seems to be an hour behind for me. I've checked my timezone settings and they're correct.

As I said, no big deal, just interesting.
 
Is "Automatically detect DST" checked in the Edit Options section of your User CP? If so, that's pretty weird.

Yep, it sure is.

What makes it even more interesting is that the correct timezone setting is selected, GMT +10, and detect DST is set and the forum tells me that my time is now GMT +11 which is correct, but the time its telling me is one hour behind my actual time.

Just something to make a Sunday morning a little more interesting. :)

The important thing is that we get an extra hour's sleep tonight...I love that...Sleep is more important to me than anything else...It's the only reason I enjoy living...It's the only reason for living...Sleep...Ah, I could make a song out of that word...I never get enough of it...never have; never will...My bed is the only thing that can put a smile on my face even when I'm down...I hit the rack and that's it, jack!!! I'm out like Michael Jackson in less than two minutes!!! Sleep, wonderful, beautiful, restful sleep...Better than sex even...mmmmmmmm... ;):thumbup:
 
Since DST ends tomorrow (here), and you're on the other side of the IDL, my guess is that the forum software is just a bit confused.
 
If it continues to show one hour off, I suggest you change your watch to reflect BFT -- BladeForums Time !!!
