Is it just my computer or also happens on all of you? I've set my timezone as GMT+1000. The time now is 00:02 and the time shown on this site is 14:30. Why is the error? thanks :)

We haven't yet had time to work through the problem.

The actual server time is correct.

For some reason, the forums are using another time, from somewhere else.

Just set your time to GMT -5, that gives you the correct time.

It's all fixed now.

You should set your times to GMT +10 (Eastern Australia).
