It was obviously you who traveled into the future according to the "marked" timestamps, not the forum.

Ok., you can do this. Obviously. It is your choice. But I have to warn you to publish that again. It would earn you serious consequences since traveling faster than light is impossible. Just wanted to let you know before your next trip into the future. :cool:

Just guessing, forum is programmed to account for time zone differences?

I've seen it sometimes, I think when I go back to a page that I loaded hours earlier and don't refresh it.

That would produce 1h difference at most (and yes, in many places that's a problem, especially during the transition between winter/summer time, as in different places they occur in different moments).
 
It's doing it again.
 
It;s doing it again.
Or possibly will be doing it again in just a moment.

It's just Skynet doing some alpha testing. You have nothing to fear.

If Schwarzenegger shows up naked in my backyard, I'm hitting the report button.

Sure? I looked it up, and there is no Connor among our members, whether Sarah or John.

I would have remembered Linda Hamilton for sure! The one and only true Sarah Connor.

You are lucky that you're a mentor. Otherwise, you would be warned for violating mainstream physics.

I must be dead. Travelling into the future is possible, I know. But only 3 minutes? How could I have ever survived the necessary accelaration for only 3 minutes?

And is there a competition who travels furthest into the future?

Yup, doin' it to me too. California time about 11:40pm.
I posted in https://www.physicsforums.com/posts/7098665/
Left the page
Returned and it showed post time of:"In 33 minutes"
The following lines are apparently dynamic, the line below now says "in 13 minutes", and sometimes increases and sometimes decreases, now "15 minutes ago". o0)
