    Bumping up post times

    Is the new board going to continue the old practice of artificially bumping up post times making it appear that the board is more active than it is? Frequently I find posts I read 12 hours ago, appearing as though they were posted a couple hours ago. Does this happen, or am I not understanding the time zone or something?
    IF it is happening, I think most of us are smart enough to know the difference, so whats the point in being deceptive. In the long run it will only hurt the credibility of the board.

    Hey guys. The only time a post is "artificially" bumped up is when someone votes on a poll in that particular thread. That may have been what you noticed, rama.
