I saw this on the bottom of the forums:

All times are GMT +2. The time now is 04:59 PM.

Which is a bit odd, since i'm very sure GMT+2 is 05:59 at the moment with 04:59 being GMT +1.

The way it should read is GMT +1 (+1 summer saving time). I agree it's not very clear about this. But when you go to your profile,

You can manually pick your time zone and it should show the correct time.

Another way to look at it is that GMT does not observe daylight saving. Hence it's GMT+2 during daylight saving and GMT+1 during "winter time".

Ah, like that. Thank you.
