i keep seeing that there is a new post on a cafe seti thread a few seconds ago (when i came here this time it said there had been a new message posted 13 seconds ago)...but when i check...i see that all threads have not been updated for several minutes...is there a bug in the board?

Sometimes when I go to the message boards screen, it hasn't updated from the last time I saw it. Refreshing manually causes the correct elapsed times to be displayed. Is that it?

>-----------------
i'm not sure...it happened several times...with different elapsed times
varying from seconds to minutes too recent an elapsed time...at any rate...i guess this will probably go down as one of the most ridiculous threads ever...because most likely there is nothing wrong...except me being too bored and seeing more than there really is to see.

--------------------
UPDATE: i just noticed the same phenomena again!...i refreshed and the elapsed time only moved up a couple of seconds.

I'm getting the same thing happening here. After updating the main message board screen I'll see a last post made xx seconds ago yet when you go to the board itself the last post could be 10 minutes or more old. Something is screwy.

It's the mods. They're conspiring against you.

yeah...you're probably right...it's not like ET is on an invisible thread explaining how the great pyramids were built...and how they make crop circles and such.

Unless he's found those hidden cams we placed in the Berk lab I'd say we're spying on him.
