Is it just me or is there a time lag on the site? I read a post in a topic and seconds later there was another post but it was posted FIVE minutes earlier!!

Might it not just be a time difference between your PC clock and the forum posting (server) clock?

I've had computers where no matter how many times I set the clock, they were always out by 5+ minutes within a few hours of re-setting.

Matt, what do you mean 'more specific' only thing I didn't add was the time but it happened more or less minutes before I posted. My computer clock keeps the same time as my mobile and that was accurate with the speaking clock. =========== Merry Christmas Everybody!!! There's always one smart alec

But does your computer clock read the same time as the forum clock?

A post appearing within seconds can appear to show a time stamp of 5 minutes ago if your computer clock doesn't match the forum clock

I've actually got all mine set about 10 minutes fast in an effort to stop being so damned late all the time... doesn't work though!

I don't know where the forum clock is, which wall is it on? The site time is 5 minutes slower than computer clock

Can't you see it? It's on the wall above the fireplace - you know - the one with the rather nice mantelpiece where Matt displays all the trophies

Sounds like you've found your solution anyway

Not really a solution cos they still differ lol My computer is accurate with the speaking clock so the site time is out by 5 minutes, not a tragedy I KNOW but it confused me when I was reading the LATEST posts, or so I thought

It's a well known fact that the speaking clock has been set 5 minutes fast by Alistair Darling, in an effort to get more hours for no money out of all the workers. It's part of the Recession Recovery Plan. I thought *everyone* knew that!

Wouldn't surprise me!

actually the server time is perfect. It synchronises with official servers on the internet 2 times per day. It's certainly never 5 minutes out.
