I presume the logic here is something like this. If the message were considered effective, then there would be a message that, despite being published at a certain time, would not be available to most players to read at that time. Since "participating" in a forum entails the ability to read messages sent to it, in order to preserve the right of participation, any message not received in a timely manner must be considered unsent until it is received. —Tanner L.
