Time discrepancy

   My suggestion for a fix is to correct the time discrepancy that occurs when the site owner and the hosting site are not in the same timezone. I am in US Eastern time and my host is California. When I write something it shows the correct time on the post (gmt -5) but the freshness is way off. At first it shows as -1 year until hours later when it show up as the difference in the time zones wrong.

   I would change the timezone to reflect the server and not yourself so that freshness is right relative to the server. Until a fix comes, it makes the most sense because bbPress config.php timezone was setup for the server and not the users.

   It is something that we need to visit in future versions or with plugins, but the freshness issue throws users for a loop!
