Logout and try again if its still happening.

Seems the Server may have had a time burp at some point....it was 12 hours off. That has been fixed.

Posts still show as PM rather than AM, so new posts will be at the bottom of the list until tonight. :cursin:

I got this trying to send a PM a few seconds ago... LOL

Yep...the server had a time issue...if you sent a pm while the time was off, it appears you have to wait a while until you send the next.

A while? You mean like 10 hours? LMAO

I have had the same one I tried sending you McB come back to me twice.....and I can't send any others out....

Do you have any idea how horrible it is for me to not be able to chat with people here? :eek:

Odd times showing up on the posts (12 hours difference from actual)
Also I can only get the first page of multiple page threads and I can't go to the first unread post.

I'm sure Matt will snap his fingers have this fixed toot-sweet! :)
Kidding of course.....!!!

posted in another thread by one of our trusty admins:

Folks, it's not just this site, or even this hosting service.

It appears there was a major problem with the worldwide NTP service. Everyone jumped ahead 12 hours and then back a few minutes later. We're dealing with the same problem at work and in other forums.

Unfortunately, undoing everyone's post times may be too major of an undertaking to manage.

Surely not I - I am just along for the ride.

I have determined that it is much easier to find where I am posting now by using larger fonts and bright colors.

:D

Age sucks you know. ;)

Also I can only get the first page of multiple page threads and I can't go to the first unread post.i can get to all the pages, but yah - it's not recognizing that i've already read posts

but if what raptor said is true......... must be some sort of pinko plot
makes ya wonder if NK did a nuke test, or were messing with the continuum?

Looks like the problem was fixed before the next Powerball Lottery drawing.

There goes my hopes for Team MRI to hit the grid next season.

I think that pretty much everything from last night thru this morning will be nonsensical in the days to come.

Butt, pretty funny for those that hung out for the duration .... at least for me.

Now with these times all screwed up ....does it mean we can drink more beer before going to the washroom?

LisaS

10-10-2006, 05:36 PM

Hmm, have to wonder - with comments being mixed into the middle of prior trains of thought in some threads...can that be considered as a thread hi-jack?

Driving me nuts.

This thread - when merged as it now is - is pretty funny.

I may actually miss this insanity when it gets worked back out again. ;)

about 3hr ago, they were finishing up some utility work a block down the street...... turned the gas main back on, and yup, there was a leak. then an explosion. which blew one of the steel road plates up into the air, taking out the power line. the roar from the blowout lasted about 5 minutes, and we could smell gas in the neighborhood for an hour or so.

power just came back on, and i can get to new posts again. life's good. :beer:

Man, that was some stuff last night huh?! Welcome to C-Bus, home of the Wednesday night Twister....jeeze. Didn't get squat here, except for the sirens. I hope the rest of the C-Bus Crappies stayed safe. It sounds like it was brutual in the Westerville area...sigh. Haven't seen the news this morning yet.
