Is "New Posts" working differently?

ReadyTRock · 10-05-2005

Up until recently (I can't say exactly when), when I first sign onto Playa.Info (usually about 8:00am) and click "New Posts", I would usually get 3 to 4 pages of new post threads. Recently, I have been getting less than a full page. This morning I got about a dozen threads.

An example... Prior to 8:00am this morning, the last time I was on Playa.Info was about 5:00pm yesterday. The thread "The Final Countdown" was posted to about 10:00pm yesterday, yet it did not show up in "New Posts" at 8:00am this morning.

Is my view of what should be happening distorted, or should I have pulled up that thread?

What time zone settings are you using? Since I'm on the east coast I use the GMT -5:00 Eastern Time setting. I'm guessing yours should be set to either Central or Mountain Time. If your settings are different from the time zone on your computer that could be what's causing the difference.

To check and/or change your time zone settings:

Go to your "User Control Panel".
Select "Edit Options".
Scroll down to "Date & Time Options".
Select your correct time zone
Click on "Save Changes".

Good idea, but I'm set correctly: GMT - 7:00 Mountain Time.
