Title: Why is the Mud Club clock always 38 minutes late?
Post by: auf_wiedersehen_pet on July 19, 2007, 19:40:58: It's not a trick question.

Every post shows with a later time - or am I on a different planet?

Depending on the above, we are all 38 minutes ahead of MC Clock or 22 minutes behind MC Clock.

22:00

Post by: sleeplessparadise on July 20, 2007, 08:52:54: For those of you that are slow its because you haven't taken into account BST and haven't set your profile to GMT +1 for those of us who are fast I have no idea what's wrong :lol: oh and it's 08.30hrs now :wink:

Post by: Lord Shagg-Pyle on July 20, 2007, 09:09:13: Time is of no consequence as it only causes more stress to build up as we rush around trying to keep to it!
I try to ignore it if I can. This medication is good!

Yes I realise that but some people were saying I was an hour and 20 minutes ahead of them or whatever and this is because they havent set their profiles right. I know it doesn't tell us why the forum clock is 20 minutes out :roll:
And it 16.18hrs now :wink:

At a guess, and it is only that as I am not involved in the clever bits of the forum, when it became necessary to change server (http://forums.mud-club.com/viewtopic.php?t=45023)to deal with severe problems affecting the forum the time was out on the new server - probably not the most important consideration at the time.

Whether it would be easy to reset the time now without risk to the integrity of the database - it might get upset if it sees a load of posts that exist in the future and do something silly.

There are moves afoot to improve the service and reliability of the forum and I would guess that when these come to fruition would be a suitable time to attend to minor glitches.

I'm not aware of any database problems, and noone has posted in the questions forum to alert us to a problem. If stuff is going missing, please let us know.

Of course, occasionally a post may have to be moved out of sight if it does not fit in with the forum guidelines.
