OK, the Server Timezone settings are finally fixed.  To set YOUR time zone:

 

1. Click on your name in the upper right hand corner (in the Green Grid)
2. Click on "Manage Profile"
3. Scroll down to bottom
4. Set Time zone
5. Click Update

I know this is a little convoluted.  I'll make it easier in the future. 

P.S. Yes, the 360 Dashboard will be back as a bonus feature.  Once we get all core Dakka functionality running again.

Do that and you be jamming the good song! Eyrie!

Well I did that and I am still showing 8 hours ahead of my actual time zone?
