    I've been watching a lot of videos on youtube from time travelers.Don't remember seeing any time travelers on boards but then again i'm newish enough to boards.
    Has there ever been any posters claiming to be time travelers on boards.ie ?
    Also If time travel were possible where would you choose to go ? I'd like to go far into the future to see all the newest technology and to meet the aliens.

    Would daylight savings time changes be classed as time traveling?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,420 ✭✭✭✭sligojoek


    I met one last week. He tried to sell me a watch in a petrol station car park.

    If it was possible poor Stephen wouldnt have been sat alone at his party

    In 2009, Stephen Hawking ran an experiment that required champagne, balloons, and hors d'oeuvres, to demonstrate that backward time travel probably isn't possible.

    It was a time travelers' party — but no one showed. And that was the point.

    "I have experimental evidence that time travel is not possible," Hawking told reporters at the Seattle Science Festival in 2012. "I gave a party for time-travelers, but I didn't send out the invitations until after the party. I sat there a long time, but no one came

    As it was made in the 90s and involved a guy travelling back to WW2 London, the 1960s reference is a real time distortion.

    not another thread slating our ethnic minorities!

    i mean how many of these anti-traveller threads do we need ffs?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 398 ✭✭DanMurphy


    Look in a mirror?

    Reminds me of the old JB Keane joke about the Kerryman who went to new shop in Caherciveen selling mirrors.
    Came home and told his sister there's a new shop in town selling pictures of our father !
    Putting on her coat, off the sister went to Town.
    On her return, she said she couldn't find the shop, but...there was another one selling pictures of their mother! :D

    When you manage to gô back to 1955 OP remember

    Take a film camera or analogue camera not a digitale one.
    Don 't take An electric guitar.
    Don't play heavy metal on stage at the dance Hall.

    Remember to hide the DeLorean. Actually OP gô to Models forum under recreation and hobbies here on boards to see what a time travelling DeLorean Looks like.

    Good luck

    There was a fair few time traveling threads on boards in 2025, of course back then boards was renamed to postplace.

    It called boards again now. No one liked postplace.

    The Lotto was setup to trap time travellers.

    One question
    Why oh why do they need to blur out the faces or alter their voices??
    It's laughable the ****e some people will believe
    Anyway...gotta go I'm meeting Elvis for Coffee

    See this time travelling makes no sense
    Just by coming back (If it was real ) he would have changed his own future reality

    If it was possible it would create an alternate timeline to the one we are experiencing and he is experiencing

    For example if someone killed Yolanda she could not be president etc

    It also counter acts the grandfather paradox - if you went back in time to kill your grandfather you would just start a new timeline from the day you kill him not cease to exist


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,719 ✭✭✭✭_Brian


    The thing is time travel is obviously impossible.

    If it were at least one unscrupulous time traveller would have come back and revealed the truth that it was possible.

    Humans are like that, always one lad that ****s thing up because he can.

    If you watch pre-recorded video are you just watching pixels re-arranged on a screen or is your consciousness actually time-travelling to that location? Is recording something basically encrypting a moment in time that can be revisited?

    I am stone cold sober btw :)

    If it is possible then it is most likely policed in some way, if somebody came back and their tech failed and they tried to convince us, nobody would buy it, unless maybe they started predicting events with complete accuracy.

    Yep
    Where are all the Time Travelers at historic events (9/11.Titanic sailing,JFK assasination,Crucifixion)?
    No TT has ever thought to travel to Dallas on November 22 1963 12:29pm and shout "Look at the Six floor window of the Book Depository there's a shooter up there!" Enough to save Kennedys life??
