It seems that some of the time stamps for some of the posts got hosed up. Maybe you already know. I left a post, and it put my post ahead of the post I was replying to. I posted at 5:30 pm, and the post I was replying to said it was done at 7 something (in the future).

The host did a software upgrade on their servers. I was made aware of what they were doing and gave them the ok to proceed. The upgrade was to prevent other sites on the same vitual server to affect others. Problems suposively now are likely to affect only the ofending site or site that the problem was caused by and not affect other sites on the same server.
Now the host did forget to set the proper time on the server after the upgrade, I beleive they were off by 5 hours. I sent them an email imforming them of the problem and they have corrected it and will continue to ensure that the time is in sync.
However having said that the time gets saved into the database at the time you post the message and I cannot change that. So posts entered from yesterday evening to sometime this afternoon may indicate an incorrect posting time. All future posts should have the correct timestamp.
