6. I don't know what you mean by 'deactivated'

It sounds to me like maybe your cookies got reset somehow, a minor glitch or possibly something you did with your browser. You can change the time setting in your account.

You could also ask Skinner in ATA in case there is a bigger issue - he's likely the only one who can tell you for sure. But you give the impression that you think something nefarious is happening, and I can't fathom what that would be, so that's why I asked what *you* think caused it.

I'm still wondering what you think caused this to happen. With your use of all-caps and bolding, and choosing to post it in GD rather than ATA, you've got me very curious about what you think.

No just found it concerning. Someone else mentioning their time was messed up too. Madam45for2923 Dec 2016 #14

OK, typing in all caps is normally considered shouting, and a bit rude muriel_volestrangler Dec 2016 #15
