Timing issue

itz_styx · Dec 6, 2019

i have a different timezone as where the forum is based and it seems the timing is off as i constantly wait to be within the 24h limit to reply to my marketplace thread, but i get warnings and posts removed even if i post after 25h.
for example the forum shows for me that i posted yesterday at 4:49PM and today i posted after 6PM and now got a warning for thread bumping.
my time is not off on my system, i also verified on google : https://imgur.com/a/94kyuD2
so what should i do to avoid this ?

Set a timer to sound 23 hours 55 minutes after you post, so you're posting the same time each day.

I have 2 laptops, 1 set to Spain time the other to UK, plus I do a lot of travel, so sometimes I'll miss a day to post, this basically resets your time frame as you'll be over 24 hours.

i did set a timer thats the thing. i noted the time i was posting yesterday and even checked again today. when the forum says my last post was at 4:49 PM and i post after 6PM that should be fine, but it wasn't i got my post removed and 2 warning points added complaining that i dont follow the rules, which i clearly try to do, but if the time shown on the forum is wrong, how is it my fault ?

I don't see any issue on your end OP or on the forum's end either. You posted in your sales thread yesterday at 18:49 (my local time) and today at 19:04 (my local time), so there are more than 24 hours between those two posts.

I'm not exactly familiar with the bumping rules of the BST threads, but as far as i know, you need to multiquote people when replying. You can't bump your thread with a series of replies posted individually. You still have a post in your thread today, if - according to you - a post was removed, you must have posted more than once in a chain, which could explain the warning.

We're you quoting posts? You cannot bump your thread in less than 3 days if you're not replying to a question.

i quoted and replied to a question asked which i can do every 24h. i didnt multi post, its just about the time difference that i get shown.
like i said the forum showed me 4.49 PM yesterday was my last post and i posted after 6PM (CET) yet i got a warning.

Something is off with what you say. You said, a post of yours was removed, yet the last post in your sales thread is still yours. So it could only happen, if you posted more than once, one after the other, which is not allowed. Which post of yours was removed exactly, when did you post that?

Anyhow, if the reason of your warning is not clear for you, you can always contact the mod (politely), who issued it.

It was not 24 hours - the post you see @HoNeYBiRD was posted after the offending one was deleted.
