I've set my time zone to GMT+1, though, for about 20 mins ago, the time stamp on one of my posts said.. 12:xx AM when its now actually 00:xx AM. It differes on exactly 12 hours.
Anyone else experiencing this?

wouldn't 0:00 be 24:00 or 12:00 PM?
12:00 AM is surely at noon.

Another solution to this problem, "12 N" for noon with "12 M" for midnight, is sometimes used.[1]

The US Government Printing Office Style Manual says to use 12:00 a.m. to mean noon and 12:00 p.m. to mean midnight.

We don't bow to US government!

Besides, this problem has a simple solution: don't stay up that late posting on forums. :P

I think 12:00 pm may mean midnight. 12:01 am is the minute afterwards though.

That's the reason I use the 24 system, AM and PM are complete bs.

I've noticed my chances of being the fastest to reply is during that time of day. no reason to reply if the person has already gained the help needed, unless, of course, if there's something intresting going on.

In our world 12am = Midnight.

Just live with it.
