true magic - time travel
-
Something magical is going on these days. I noticed some instances of 2 consecutive posts where in the first post there is a quote of the second post (so the posts should have been the other way around). Some examples: http://maccaboard.paulmccartney.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2499809#2499809 http://maccaboard.paulmccartney.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2499729#2499729 http://maccaboard.paulmccartney.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2499732#2499732 http://maccaboard.paulmccartney.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2499644#2499644 http://maccaboard.paulmccartney.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2499746#2499746 Times are changing (literally and figuratively speaking) Miracles do happen, especially these days before Christmas.

I suppose this is what Paul meant when he wrote, "I go back so far, I'm in front of me." Els, thanks so much for pointing out this issue, I will forward the report.

You are probably right about that. So it was done deliberately But seriously: at times I see the boardtime is 5 minutes ahead of my pc time and a moment later the boardtime is again the same as my pc time. I like this time distortion; it makes it possible to time travel.

I have not yet personally noted this issue, but will forward this observation along as well. Thanks again.

Here is another nice example: http://maccaboard.paulmccartney.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2500031#2500031 It continues at page 25 as well.

It was happening to me a lot yesterday
-
It's happening all the time now I love it. This board has never been so much fun
-
Thank you both for your observations. Liz has confirmed to me that she has indeed forwarded a report of the issues. Hopefully all will be resolved very soon.
-
Just thought I'd mention that it seems to be increasing...a member's quoted reply getting posted before the actual quote. It's happening more and more these past few days.

My computer's clock says it is 4:56 PM right now, but when I hit Submit, it will say that I posted at 4:58!

Hi Kathryn, I have moved your observations to this already existing topic. This is a known glitch and a report has been forwarded. Thank you for noting your observations here, much appreciated!

yes it is becoming quite distracting...as if we needed more confusion...
-
It makes it all very confusing sometimes! lol

I've taken to quoting every post I'm replying to, just to help people follow the conversation easier. I've tried resetting my computer's clock to try to fix my time traveling issues, but to no avail...
-
I swear the time travelling is getting worse...

it all started after the release of the time travelling space fridge, spooky eh?

I wonder if we all set our clock to what is on this page if that would work...or does that sound too logical? I'm at the same time as it's listed here.

I never even noticed that my time didn't match the board....changed it..

I bet it won't help much. Especially when we all start posting at the same time. But what happened? It never used to be like this?

I have no clue....in all the years here posting, this is the first time this has happened. You are right, it does seem to happen more when multiple people are posting. When it is slow, it seems OK.
