It was obviously you who traveled into the future according to the "marked" timestamps, not the forum.Borek said:No idea what/how - just clicked on the bell icon to see notifications. W11, Chrome.

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.

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).symbolipoint said:Just guessing, forum is programmed to account for time zone differences?

You are lucky that you're a mentor. Otherwise, you would be warned for violating mainstream physics.DrClaude said:I have time travelled! Success!

Temporal law enforcement agents will be / have already / just now visiting him to issue a ticket. Please ensure he shows / has shown / is in to court. This requirement will be waived for violators stuck in a time loop or other paradoxical or temporal event that may prevent them from attending their own court date.fresh_42 said:You are lucky that you're a mentor.

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?

From a Xenforo dev
That is a known XenForo bug if you leave a page open for too long.

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".
