What's happened to the dates?

Quite often over the past couple of hours I've either used my browser's back button or refreshed the page and weird (older) dates are displayed beside posts, especially newish ones.

Bug in the system methinks?

    Me too, but I've noticed that a post in the Arms is showing as new when it isn't. I think the thread has just been moved from the Discussion board so it's new to the Arms :-/ :-/

    people can bump up an old thread by posting something and then remove their post,
    this keeps the thread at the top of the board but looks as if the latest post ws months ago
