Time
   

Firstly this is not complaining just a curiosity about something very trivial.

Right below “Private Messages” there is a line with the current time, well current is a relative term in this case. I know you can adjust GMT back and forward, but can I adjust time itself? It seems that the RPGDot time is faster 23 minutes to my reality.

It's that much too fast for me too. I know you set back the clock every now and then when threads as these appear, but why is the forum clock always a little too fast? It's strange.

The server is in orbit around Earth. So, as we all know, time is traveling faster out there, hence the server's time is always fast.

Of course. Stupid me, that didn't think of that!

Took you guys a pretty long time to find out that RPGDot is ahead of its time.

Hey, we knew that, we were just lazy to acknowledge it, besides RPGDot runs in different time continuum.

They reset the system time every few months when enough of us whine about it, but it always seems to creep back to around 25 minutes fast. Perhaps we can round up some liches to cast a few Time Stop spells.

Well, it was never reset when this thread first was active, and now the time is almost 40 minutes ahead. It's srenge it always rushes on.

I have a little atomic clock program on my PC which automatically checks and resets the time every day; it's free too.
