Kaytee: I think we should try to eliminate some suspects.

1. Your computer: Have you tried posting on another computer? Try logging into a friend's computer, and see if you have the same experience.

2. Your connection: Try posting on another connection. E.g. go someplace else and try posting. I'm not sure what you have for a service, but try not to pick something slower than your connection (like dialup. )

No one else has mentioned this so it must be just me. Last night my time I couldn't read any of the threads, I clicked on every thread and they all had a very long error code. Earlier this afternoon I could read the threads so assumed there was a problem with the site malfunctioning last night. I came back here about 20 mins ago (it's evening now) and all the threads were showing the last time of posting as being this morning - even though I'd earlier read the afternoon ones.


Then I noticed I wasn't logged in and wondered if that made a difference for whatever unknown or new reason so signed in and now can see that all the threads are up to date timewise. I've never had this particular problem before, just wondered if you were aware of it or someone else has mentioned it to you, seems strange if it's just my pc all of a sudden.

Sorry, maybe I didn't explain properly what I meant.
When you visit this site, whether you are logged in or not, you will always see the most up to date posts. The only difference in what you see will be the displayed time.
If you are logged in you will see your own time zone timing on all the posts, but if you are not logged in the time displayed on the very same posts will be the relative time zone of Seattle, which is eight hours behind GMT.

Edit: I posted this post at 00:38 GMT (4th March), but if I were not logged in this very same post would be displaying the time as 4:38pm (3rd March - Seattle time)

Hi Fluffy, you probably know more about the workings of this site than me. I've just never noticed before that the times of the latest posts relate to if we're logged in or not. I've just assumed that what's posted is the latest addition regardless of the time zones just as I experience in other Forums where there are different time zones to where I live.

Yellow Rose, I can confirm that Fluffy's postings are exactly what I have found. Is it possible that you had recently ckeared your browser cache including cookies? If you had then when you revisited this forum it would default as if you were not logged in so would show the Seattle times. Once you logged in then it would show your set times.
