Just checked one of the threads I contributed to earlier this evening to see if there has been any updates via my 'My information/contributions' profile shortcut and it is old data.
I went to the same thread via the normal front page route and its all there.
Is there a problem where the data held in the profiles 'My info./Contributions' is not being updated along with the threads.
I'm assuming its not just my profile.
The thread I looked at was in 'Le Mans/Ferry rip offs' btw, not checked any others.

The data is grabbed in real time so it can't be a case of your particular details not being accurate in the database.

Someone else did mention this a while back. Sounds like the page has been cached. Try a shift refresh and let me know if that updates things.

Well I've certainly been logged off and on a few times since last night and on diferent computers.

I currently have the 'ferry rip off' thread open in another window. When I access it via 'my profile/contributions' it shows the last post as being at 11:58 by billflin, refreshing hasn't changed it. Now when I access the thread via the front gassing staion page it also shows 11:58 .

Serioulsy, if it happens again I'll update this thread, believe me it drove me mad last night as it confused the feclk out of me, I tried refreshing then but it made no differnce btw Ted.

EDid you "refresh" by pressing the refresh button or "CTRL and F5" the latter should have cleared it

The numpties refresh button at the top of IE, not the technical cntrl + F5 one . I assume thats what I should have done then.
