Thanks so much for that answer (seriously !)-I thought I was "seeing things" because everything appeared "normal" until yesterday (and no one else had mentioned it).

Hm. Current time is 2008-04-07T20:00:00 UTC.
I'm on BST, which is UTC+1 currently, so local time is 21:00:00 BST
EDT is UTC-4, so the time there should be 16:00:00
I have set my profile to GMT+1 (GMT, for most purposes, is the same as UTC)
This message has just been shown here with a timestamp as 10:00:00 pm, which is wrong.

It works completely local to your own machine, so it can't be "disabled".
The way WP links pages/topics/etc together was changed, a while back, so you need to make sure that the script is told which URLs to function on.
I have:
| Code: | */viewtopic.php*
http://www.wrongplanet.net/post*
http://www.wrongplanet.net/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic* |
The first is what the script came with, IIRC.
The second is the old style page addresses.
I think the last is the only one strictly needed, at present.

Chatroom problem.
Mortomes had this little bot that he created running around the chatroom.
Now, when it first appeared I was able to ignore it just fine. But the second time I entered today, I put it on ignore and the ignore feature wouldn't work.
I was able to ignore everyone else just fine, but the Bot was somehow immune to the ignore feature.
It has nothing to do with my "software' or my "client".
Is there any way you could just ban the use of bots all together, as they are quite annoying. |

Limitations on spammers is good. But in my case, not having posted in four years, it can be an annoyance.

they don't work for me, much, either matsuiny2004. If you want to follow a topic, be sure you click (Watch this topic for replies) on page one. That resets it.

Apparently I'm not allowed to edit a post 9999 minutes after I made it. Is there reasoning for this, and if not can it be changed?

if you would like for me to delete it I can,(PM me with the exact post by finding where it says "Post:" and clicking on the little page to the left. The page will refresh and the URL in the address bar will be just for that post) 9999 minutes is as long as the software allows .

Is it just me, or can no one navigate back to the home page from a thread? I have had to hit the back button multiple times, just to get back to the home page.
