Not so much a big problem- just mildly annoying.

TW, NW, Tigers, DT, COA, Tourney, etc.. all start slightly late.
Seems to have been going on for the last two weeks at least.
Something seems outta sync- at least on Sanctuary.

    If I check the encyclopedia, it shows server time two minutes behind the website time. Web time coincides with the other clocks I have running that are updated with time servers.

    TW seemed to start on time though. Or, at least, it was within about 20-30 seconds on when I thought it should start. It's definitely odd though.

    3-4 min now...
    I'm thinking this should be near the top of the list on things to fix

    If time keeps slipping like this .. server time will be off by half an hour in around a month.

    This should've been fixed some time ago :/ it's just getting worse by the day and becoming increasingly annoying as it's a pain to tell the exact time an event/NW/TW/etc is going to start unless you continuously check the in-game events thingy. I'm not too keen on having the server time being off by 30 minutes eventually either.

    If server goes out of sync 1 minute per day, only have to wait 1 440 days for it to reset itself b:laugh.

    This happened with the RT server some time ago and it started with teleport lag, then eventually events started running behind. Ofcourse everyone else said it was our own network lag. Eventually pwi did something to fix it, not sure off hand what it was.

    This is a perfect time to get back at the other servers and wannabe pc tech's
    :)

    No there is no such thing as server lag
    No there is no such thing as video card lag
    No it is impossible to to have teleport lag
    No the servers time cannot be out of synce
    Its your fault
    Its your own network or isp that is the problem
    Show me your dxdiag output
    Show me your netstat,ping,traceroute ect even though that is not the problem
    ect ect ect

    server time is still off despite the last maint setting it back to only 1 min late.
    It continues to grow worse everyday.

    Bumpity bump bump bump. Last I checked (yesterday) the servers were 6+ minutes slow. We need a proper fix for this and not just rolling back the server time because it's not fixing it @_@

    I wonder if this is just Sanctuary/West Coast servers or Morai server copped this too, since they also got a hardware upgrade.

    Guess they're just rolling it back every week as a "fix" then o.o I haven't taken notice of the server delays since a few days ago. I reckon some troll programmer went and made the clock 24 hrs and 30 seconds to see how long it'd take for people to notice b:mischievous

    Here's a good temp fix that's easy to set up....

    Or you could use this method for a better fix...

    Could just be something as simple as a low battery on the board, or toggling the UTC value.

    It's most likely due to our staggered activation of the new hardware. I'll see if the engineers can fix it during the next maintenance.
