A little spooked and confused?

Post by vaporeon11 »

Hard to explain, but what the actual flip flap patty wack is going on with this page here?: viewforum.php?f=19&start=50

Yeah... just look at the posts and you will understand.

Probably just old posts or a broken link.

If you're wondering why the date is "1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC" (the Unix epoch) it's because the time of posts is stored as the number of seconds since the Unix epoch and for some reason the time those posts were made is set to "0" (or similar) so they appear to have been posted at the time of the Unix epoch.

The latest posts probably appear this way because they don't actually exist and phpBB is defaulting to the post time being 0 if there's no value found.

It's also the reason we have to worry about 2038, because UNIX will run out of places for the number of seconds since the Epoch. This is a big problem, bigger than Y2K.

Any date/time stamp that's invalid gets dated Dec 31, 1969 (before the Epoch) unless someone sets it to display "a long time ago" or something similar (some sites didn't capture sign-up dates or post times until after the site had already been online for a while).
My join date says 2012, when I made an account I promptly forgot about until August 2023, so I'm really *gasp* a newbie. :)
I have no phobias or disliked critters. Feel free to click anything in my keep, except the "Quests" tab. I think you'll find plenty there without those 2 or 3.
