I'm using firefox, and the first post appears above the OP, instead of below it...

Welcome to the wonderful world of Jolt. In their servers, TIME KILLS YOU.

It's happening to everyone. I'm using IE7 and I get the same thing.

Really? Normally jolt just crashes. This one's more interesting.

And I'm wrong, the posts are just out of order period. I've got like the third poster quoting the last poster, etc, etc.

When the clocks on the four Jolt cluster servers get out of sync for a while, post order gets shuffled. There's not a damn thing we can do about it afterwards.

Look in any of the threads ever since yesterday (and partly even before that) and you'll see that it's the same everywhere, not only with the OP, and that there are lots of posts talking about the time warp.

Come on, guys... What's the problem? Time warps are funny, and give way to Rocky Horror Picture Show references that would otherwise never get to be used!


Now put your hand on your hip!

Hmm... let's take a look at those clocks.

According to the laws of physics, as an object's speed approaches c (the speed of light) the rate at which time passes for that object decreases. Presumably, once the speed exceeds c, time will progress in a negative direction.

This means that we have a number of posters who are able to post at a speed exceeding the speed of light.

There is a way to short-circuit this process to reduce the needed speed to a mere 80 miles per hour, but it requires plutonium and a device known as a flux capacitor.

Great, now I have my name on a deleted thread called "The Lower Classes: Ignorant and Uneducated People" because of this.

It's 88 miles per hour. It laso requires Christopher Lloyd and Michael J. Fox.

Right ... it's been a while since I've seen the videotape recordings of their experiments.

Listen, I feel his pain, put I do not want a guy whose arms twitch driving a car.


They would never get away with the whole plutonium and terriosts thing nowadays.
