    It's happened to me a couple times and it always has to do with the time zone. If the last post shows 5pm and I post at 5:30 but I'm actually 4:30 Central time, that post toes ahead of the of the 5pm Eastern time post, at least from what I've seen.

    Edit - since it just happened, it shows 4:51 on my post (mine shows 5:16 for your post) but right now it's 5:52 Central time. So, it's close to what I was saying but different zones.

    What is going on with the posts???

    It seems that posts are out of order and all mixed up. I quoted a post and mine was 2 posts before the one that I posted. Does anyone have any idea what is going on? Thanks
    In no way do I make any money from anyone related to the firearms industry.

    With a little detective work, I can put them in some kind of order on my own.

    But this 3700 second waiting time is killing me

    Make sure your keyboard is properly staked.

    Dell never completely covers their keys when staking, I always have to restake them. Why would they not do something so easily accomplished during manufacturing...cheap bastards!

    I guss I'll just have to spend the money and go top-tier...Apple here I come.

    I have noticed that the time displayed at the bottom of the page has been bouncing between the correct time, and being 1 hour behind. Right now it's 16:29 and the site says the current time is 15:29, but just a couple minutes ago it was displaying the correct time.

    My SWAG: It's entirely possible that this site is hosted on multiple load-balanced web servers, and one of them has a clock that's off by an hour. If I get routed to the one that's off, then my post gets timestamped with the wrong time. Then when posts are displayed in order of ascending timestamp the order gets all screwed up.
