What's up with the dates/times?

There are several threads where the forum date doesn't match the latest message date. For example, the "linux os" thread shows Last Modified of "04-29-2003 10:05:38" while the last posting in the thread shows "04-27-2003 09:58:19" This has happened several times, and is confusing because the thread looks like it's been updated when it really hasn't. What gives?

Basically it's me. As a moderator I'm trying to do my job to keep things neat and correct. (If the link isn't hyperlinked, a spelling mistake, etc...) Any time I make a change, that thread will show up as updated even though there aren't new posts.

If you need a message modified to correct a mistake the setup only gives you a few mins. I can make the change at any time. Just email me. I'd rather correct a message then have two on the board.

yeesh - i thought it was just me :-P
recovering from the cold/flu bug.

let's consult the BOFH error message rolodex,
i'm sure they've got a reasonable explanation:
- solar flares / excessive gamma rays
- radon gas leaking from the foundation
- prontisordial filament needed replacing
- obsfuscator wasn't synchronized
- unusually low neutrino concentration
- (flimsy excuses ad nauseum)

oh, well . . .

So the truth is out there after all... I'll cancel that call to Mulder and Scully. Thanks for the explanation, jsmmd. I had looked for "modified x times" in the threads, but when you administratively edit things it must not increment that counter.

Yup. The bbs doesn't have spell check and I've gotten rather lazy over the past years. I really didn't think ppl. would notice.

See I did it again. Found an error with the lines from ron.

What I do it memorize the reply #'s or at least the general layout.
