Yup there are 2 things wrong with that last line...
Nope.. I am not going to bring it up to Metalbeasts attention at this time.

And here is why..

First there is something in the setup - phpbb? or some other coding.. that needs to remain at Central Standard Time... aka Rollie's default home time, and where WarcraftRealms.com lived for the first seven or so years.

Metalbeast with his ISP connections has over the more recent years moved our site from machine to bigger/faster machine a number of times.
Each move (I think) was from one data center to another.
If memory serves me correctly we know have been hosted in all four time zones of mainland USA.

The Current Server time as listed is correct.. except it should be showing CDT at this time as that is what the zone for that time stamp.
The last processed file is being handled by a system level cron job that runs at the real time of the server which is EDT..(the server currently is in the state of Florida.)

So why am I not going to bother Metalbeast about this?
Because after the last Addon update, I sent Metalbeast a detailed list of the changes needed for World of Warcraft V7.0.(4?) which probably will go live 08/16/2016.
And I want him to focus on getting that ready on time.
And I hope he gets the Guild issues resolved while he is doing the other changes that need to be done.

As long as the process runs like it should, displaying time, is a very minor problem.. Just thougt I would bring it to your attention..

I also noticed, the first two times are 12h and the last two are 24h ;)
Same with dates, YYYY-MM-DD vs MM-DD-YYYY
