First, I posted in the Operating Systems section, and noticed my thread like 6 or 7 below the last stickied one, I thought that maybe something went wrong, ignored it.

Then, in general hardware, I noticed that after posting a message, my reply was then at the top of the thread instead of bottom, here.

And here, in General Hardware, the thread didn't move up to the top either. It stayed where it was when I found it with no replies.

I just came home and nothing has been changed on my side of things, AFAIK, which means all the internal hardware, as to if my ISP changed something, I don't know, and I'd dought it being changed at 1AM on a Saturday night.

Normal stuff guys, we order by date (like every other forum app out there) so this kind of stuff happens. I don't think there is anyway around it when you have to order by dates... and fusetalk has to order by dates..

It should only affect the end of DST because that's when the hour duplicates, right? Spring we just skip over an hour, so there should be no forum issues.

Kinda funky to see happen, but for 1 hour a year, it's probably not worth rewriting an entire module.

No int ID column that autoincrements?

The AT Forums are far from mission critical. A little glitch like this shouldn't really even be on the radar for the minor inconvenience it causes. Wouldn't be surprised if it's on a list of "things to look at eventually".

Yeah, thats a good point, its probably on a list of things for the future, so when the finish up whatever they're doing and get some more time on their hands, they can fix that.

Ctho, int column? That would not work as explained in another thread. It HAS to be dates, as there are several options of sorting and backend xml export routines...
