can some one tell me what this is---> Timer synchronization error
I keep getting messaged this zone warning. It seem to be the same player. I get this message every time he comes in to the zone.

If I remember correctly this was innitialy put as a warning for suspicious activity on the client side such as incase of a packet tampering happens.
Unfortunatly, it ended up flagging people who had a problem with their bios clock or CPU induced lag more than often than a legit cheating attempt.
At Infantry/Cosmic Rift it was finally fixed when the problem resurfaced by using reversed clocking or something.
The best you can do is keep an eye on the player in question, if he doesn't cheat, then you'll have to simply ignore it as sadly there's no way of turning it off/tagging the player valid, except maybe placing him onto the VIP.txt (not sure it would work but it should negate warnings for that player, but then you also won't recive other legit warnings about him).

Thank you
Puting him on the vip.txt opens up other things.So i may have to live with it.
