while reading posts, i've starting looking at the time of the posts. 9 to 5 pm posts seem in order. what about those at 2:30 am, 4 am etc? is this the poster's actual time, or the time it hit the board adjusting for time differences? i can't believe people post at 3 am, or do they? or am i just nuts for asking?

The forum changes times to match your time zone. For example, if someone posts at noon on the East coast, I see it as 9 AM here in PST. So, yes, sometimes the 2:30 is accurate, sometimes it is an adjusted time. Sushi has been known to post at ridiculous hours. :-) I've seen him on there in Texas when I'm on at 1 or 2 AM in California.

Some of us don't sleep during the week. So, yes... when my posts are marked at 3:30 am, it's actually 3:30 am... though you won't usually see one earlier in the morning than before the second glass of Pepsi.

I've been known to post messages at 1 or 2am myself. I stay up late quite often. I HATE mornings. Grrrr....

Yeah, the spoiled people on the other side of the lens get all the breaks, don't they? Maybe you should start inserting subliminal subvertive messages into the frames you scan....

I have some very odd posting times. My late night/early morning posts are usually done at work when I'm unwinding.
