CampKohler Champion Author Sacramento Posts:9,681 Points:1,584,410 Joined:May 2007	Message Posted: Dec 4, 2012 7:43:07 PM Ignore CampKohler Report Abuse I just posted a comment at 4:38 in this topic and saw no Edit button after it posted. So at 4:39 I posted a correction and there was no Edit button showing on that one either. What is going on?

scoutmaster Champion Author Pittsburgh Posts:82,171 Points:3,281,170 Joined:Mar 2003	Message Posted: Dec 5, 2012 6:03:21 AM Ignore scoutmaster Report Abuse Yup the posting time is roughly 11 minutes behind the actual time hence beyond the edit time.
Oregonio Champion Author Oregon Posts:15,315 Points:3,066,075 Joined:Mar 2004	Message Posted: Dec 5, 2012 5:55:59 AM Ignore Oregonio Report Abuse Yup. The posting time is 10 minutes ahead. So I posted at 3:03, but it says I posted at 2:53, so this server thinks the 5-minute window is gone.

ziyulu Champion Author Oklahoma City Posts:8,635 Points:1,629,620 Joined:Aug 2007	Message Posted: Dec 5, 2012 5:39:52 AM Ignore ziyulu Report Abuse No edit. Server time shows 4:50 AM.

bytebug Champion Author Orange County Posts:26,544 Points:4,151,330 Joined:Oct 2001	Message Posted: Dec 5, 2012 5:04:31 AM Ignore bytebug Report Abuse Another theory shot down.
scoutmaster Champion Author Pittsburgh Posts:82,171 Points:3,281,170 Joined:Mar 2003	Message Posted: Dec 5, 2012 4:59:43 AM Ignore scoutmaster Report Abuse Is it there yet?
bytebug Champion Author Orange County Posts:26,544 Points:4,151,330 Joined:Oct 2001	Message Posted: Dec 5, 2012 4:52:32 AM Ignore bytebug Report Abuse Which might mean that an edit button shows up about 8 minutes later.
CampKohler Champion Author Sacramento Posts:9,681 Points:1,584,410 Joined:May 2007	Message Posted: Dec 5, 2012 12:28:57 AM Ignore CampKohler Report Abuse Excellent diagnosis! I didn't think of the clock factor at all. My solution is to post all msgs 8 minutes ahead of time. :-)
bytebug Champion Author Orange County Posts:26,544 Points:4,151,330 Joined:Oct 2001	Message Posted: Dec 5, 2012 12:02:56 AM Ignore bytebug Report Abuse Server seems to be around 8 minutes slow.

maxstar Champion Author Chicago Posts:18,680 Points:837,245 Joined:Feb 2011	Message Posted: Dec 4, 2012 8:06:10 PM Ignore maxstar Report Abuse We had this issue a few months ago. The timestamp of posts are off, so the system thing the edit grace period is over.
