Who's time is this? (when the post was posted)

[Beja]

When a member posts or replies to a thread, there is a time stamp at the end of the contribution.

Is this the poster's local time, b4a server time or my computer's time?

Thanks in advance

It seems to me that it is the minute in which the post was written but adapted to my local time.

Sometimes some inconvenience happens but basically it should be so.

(now your post is "dated" 57 minutes ago - tomorrow I will read it as: "Yesterday at 07:53 p.m.")

I see the time of messages 2 hours ago from Turkey's time. We are at GMT+3 now. It looks like the B4A server is at the GMT+1 time zone.

Thank you guys..
We are here at GMT -5

The timezone is based on your personal settings (under preferences).

Erel,
What I meant is: when I open a post of someone (not mine) and see the time stamped on the post, then who's time is that.
1- the poster's local time
2- software anywhere server time
3- my computer's local time.

I think you see the time as if the person who wrote the post had written it in your city.

You are in New Jersey: What time do you see in this my post? Here is 11:07 PM

I see it today, 5:07pm
Now at this point my system time is 8:21pm Sunday

I posted that at 11:07 PM local time, you are in New Jersey, then 5:07 pm should be right. The time zone differs by 6 hours.
Now here is 3:05 pm (summer time +1), there 8:05 pm
