LJ oddness

Is anyone noticing that the time stamp on replies is about 5 hours ahead of the actual time one writes them?

Looks oks to me. 11pm here, 1:57am stamp on your original post.

Oh, posts are fine. I was talking about replies to posts...

[johno.livejournal.com]

Doh! You're right. 7am (ish) for both our replies.

Hmmm, that's GMT...

[khaosworks.livejournal.com]

I note a 7.03am stamp on your reply and a 7.05am stamp on my first reply to that.

Hmmm... Looks like 23:03 and 23:05 respectively from here. Maybe something's been fixed....

[khaosworks.livejournal.com]

Nope. The timestamp on your reply reads 8.26 am. Odd, that.

[hrrunka]

Weird! I'm seeing the times in your timezone, and you're seeing them in mine....

(Well, mine said 00:26 and your reply said 01:05, which is 8 hours behind UT, but I guess you're 6 hours back?)

D'oh! Universal Time.

Testing reply, two, three...

[figmo.livejournal.com]

Eep. I posted that last one at 11:27pm.

I think you'll find in the FAQ that in S1 style system, comments are in UTC (often called GMT), whereas in S2 style system, they are in U.S. Pacific Time.

Has this changed recently?

I believe that replies are timestamped Universal Time.
