Old story. Forum clocks get set forward ~3 hours, then reset at proper time. It's iron itself out in about 15 more minutes.

"I blame the Freemasons"
Duly noted, and referred to the committee on public relations, of the Grand Lodge of Texas, A F & A M. It is not far from Waco to College Station, Lonestar, and check thoses masonic rings on many of the Administration there.

Don't you mean back three hours? The post time seems earlier than the real time it was posted. Hence the Poly clock is three hours behind.

Or am I just reading it from the recipricol point of view.

Nope. Recently it's been 2 hrs. forward. The problem comes when the clocks are reset to normal time.

OK, but it used to be three hours back didn't it? I've never had a post "clocked in" before the "actual" time that I posted it. Although I have had posts clocked in as being three hours old immediately after posting.

What is the problem exactly? Does it affect post order or just the time Apolyton claims a certain post was made?

I think it's some sort of scheme by OT posters to make their comments on the Afghan situation look brilliant by altering the posting times to before the Northern alliance took Kabul.
