With the advent of Version 4, we have not been able to set local time on our forums in South Australia.
I believe South Australia is the only place on the planet that operates a .5 difference in hours instead of the usual 1 hour change to the next time zone.
Version 4 also included the Northern Territory and South Australia in the same time zone and this is incorrect, although they are located in the same longitude they do in actual fact operate different time zones.
Version 4 also has mixed up the time zones for Eastern and Western Australia and from a recent post I've just read in the support board, Auckland New Zealand cannot access a plus 13 hours GMT.
Version 3 of Proboards gave us the ability to select a plus or minus on GMT in .5 hour divisions... version 4 does not have this capability. Hence since the release of Version 4, we cannot get our local time correct.
This matter was discussed in the support board after the release of Version 4 and Martyn said he was going to look into it. It came up for discussion again when our clocks changed back in October and I believe it was Craig who said it was going to be reported as a bug.
Well... here we are approaching February and almost close to a year on from Version 4 release and we still haven't got the right time.
May I respectfully suggest you drop the current time settings and revert to those available in Version 3.... at least then everyone on the planet will know the time of day.
