Please answer my question

Hi, i have a question about this forum of the website,
Please tell me: are the dates written on the top of each thread the real date in which the person created that thread? Or are the dates written just according to the date of the person's computer?
I ask this because i want to know the exact date of a possible exposure according to the date of a previous thread someone created, i want to know if the test which was done 4 months post exposure and was negative was done in the right time, just for being extra sure,  
So, do the dates of the posts or threads show the real dates, or are they just written based on the dates adjusted on the posters' devices? Because the latter might be wrong date, thanks

You never had an exposure.  Protected sex is safe sex as long as the condom did not fail.  Of course your 4 month negative is conclusive.  Move on and stop this nonsense about the clocks and times.

If you post medhelp posts the date and time you posted(up to 24 hours) after the 24 hour period it just shows the date of the post.

Why would you think we would volunteer our time and effort answering questions from fake posters?

On second thought?  Forget it!!  Just move along and put HIV behind you.

I just want to know, what are the sand clock icons beside the titles of the threads of some users? For example in this page:
http://www.medhelp.org/forums/HIV-Prevention/show/79?page=185
Are all the dates true and real dates?
Why we see some very older threads among this list?
And what are the clock icons next to some question titles?
And finally: do all of the mentioned date show the actual date of that post's creation?

According to your answer, So the dates of the posts/threads are real true dates and don't show the dates adjusted on the users' computers, and the users are also real persons, thank you

No problem, i am not concerned about it because it was a condom protected vaginal sex, and a negative result 4 months after exposure,
But please tell me if the dates are real dates, thank you
