Either I Can See The Future Or Replies Are Posting Before the Post To Which I Replied
I might well be clarvoyant (I always knew I was special), but I seem to be able to quote posts that have not yet been posted, or so it appears.
It looks like, at least in some instances, posts are not posting in chronological order.

I am also seeing this.

My post at 6:22 PM clearly quotes the subsequent post, which is timestamped at 6:24.
A server hiccup of some sort, perhaps? Or an incorrectly-set server clock?
Edited to add: I think that my timestamps may correspond to the system time on my computer. Should the posts reflect that time, or the FT server time?

Worst case: should be taken care of no later than tomorrow - Nov. 15.

Just FYI - happened right now again where my post (currently #39) was supposed to be number 41.
