I think I can post now.

I had the idea of using some command line pipe expression to grep all the post after
a certain date and autoset them to a time in the past.

More odd stuff. The stamp is correct but my recent post in SCT went to the start of the thread. I tried to edit shortly after and got a message that stated you can only edit within the first 9999 minutes of it being submitted.

I saw 2008 on my last post. Now i can not post because the system thinks Im posting too
fast (negative time ). I'm curious if you saw 2008 on your post and if you can still post

If you can post post this"

delete all the posts from the future, reset system clock.


And I just noticed another person with a 2008 timestamp.

Heeelp!

It happened to me earlier today. I just kept trying and trying and about two hours later it finally let me post. After that I didn't get the error message anymore, but the times are still messed up...

BTW I noticed this text on the top of every page: "We are working on fixing the post issue. please stand by." Let's give them some time, they already know somethings wrong. I wonder if it's related to the recent change to a new server, I think it was a server on Iraq or something...

I'm no longer having trouble posting, but for some reason my posts aren't showing up.

The problem's already been solved by now. I'm no longer worrying about it.
