You know, I've always just assumed that my members all see timezone stamps on my site adjusted to their own location. But my moderator pointed out to me that every post and action on the site has always shown to him in New York eastern time (he's in California and I'm in NY).

Do all my members see all content as having been posted in MY time zone, as opposed to it being adjusted to their own time zone?
If so, is this normal? ...and if so is there any simple way of enabling members to see the site timestamps translated to their own location?

Timestamps on your site are adjusted to what you have set in the ACP -> Core -> Core -> Data and Time Settings. There is a bug in 5.2.x and pre-5.3.0b7 that can make those appear incorrect in some instances (due to how JR figures out daylight savings time).

JR does not adjust timestamps for individual users.

I've sometimes wanted to see that too since I'm in Tokyo. Maybe in future.
