Forgive me for asking this, but...

has anyone noticed any time warps recently?

I haven't. Does this mean they fixed it?

If so, have they already announced that they fixed it?

Is this the wrong place to ask this?

Finally, would a time warp actually result in you going back in time or would it result in everyone else going forward?

i suppose there have been less time warps, maybe in the shake up they fixed it.
A time warp would result in a post appearing earlier or later than it should, which confuses many conversations.

EDIT: as of now i've noticed by can't see new posts, unless i click on reply option where other posts are there, i go back to the thread and they dissapear again. what the hell jolt?

It's just a jump to the left then a step to the right
Put your hands on your hips then bring your knees in tight
But it's the pelvic thrust that'll really drive you insane.

The timewarps have ended for the most part.

The Time Warp, like Rock and Roll, Larry King, and the Russian Reversal, will never die. (Although at least one of the above should...)

1. (It's just a) JUMP TO THE LEFT, with hands UP.

2. A STEP TO THE RIGHT (Time-Warper ANNETTE FUNICELLO suggests a very WIDE step.)

3.* (With your hands on your HIPS) YOU BRING YOUR KNEES IN TIGHT.

4. (Then) THE PELVIC THRUST (if repeated FIVE times, it nearly drives you insa-a-ane)

5. HIPSWIVEL (if not driven insa-a-ane by step four)

6. LET'S DO THE TIME WARP AGAIN!


* Those with LIMB DISABILITIES may find it necessary to ALTER or DELETE this action, but NO EXCUSES for alterations to steps four and five.

Well then, I guess that's why it didn't work. *nod*

The time warp didn't leave. We've all just gone back to the time before it arrived. We just have to wait to catch up with ourselves.

No. But since fixing it is as simple as synchronising the times on the different servers I doubt they will mention it ;)

Though the bureaucracy involved might be a story of untold horrors...

You mean they, the IT professionals that run the servers, finally broke down and installed NTP? And maybe bought a GPS time server?
