Server is hosed

[UK31337]

Right now, strange things are happening:


Almost everyone has the green light to show they're online
There's a far above average of birthdays today
It says "All times are GMT+1, the current time is 2:43AM" even though I'm in GMT+1 and it's 19:55
Some posts are disappearing from older threads like the Member Pics thread
I did a search when I hadn't done one before, it said you can only search every 15 seconds so I had to wait >2m seconds
The site is very slow


Anyone else getting it?

EDIT: apparently I posted this at 2:46AM... that it definitely isn't.

There are already numerous posts about this but they're all being filed at the very back of the CF feedback category (mine has like 6 posts but is on the penultimate page now). Sounds like times issues, server clock is hosed.

Also according to the clock there area a lot of updates in the future, i'll get an example

PS. Server time is now back to normal, are the problems fixed? Any news on what happened?

I had to reboot after some windows updates and I think the cmos battery is dead because it doesn't hold the time and I have to manually reset it which causes the threads to go out of sync
