It appears that all of you have missed my question in my original post.

Has anyone else ran across this issue? If so what is the deal with it?

I am not stating anything. I merely asked a simple question, if anoyne has ever noticed any issues when checking against time in a loop using threads. No it does not happen all the time which is why I am asking. If it was as easy as a static bug there would be no need in even coming here. I have suspected an issue with threads since I first noticed this. I thought I may get some valid info from someone else if they had ever seen this before which is why I included the threads in the example so you all would know the usage and the indication. But for this I get 3 or more threads saying I don't need to use threads and a few more telling me to use IO::Select and more blaming the socket. None of them addressed my original question.

Not flaming anyone for trying to help but it is apparent most of you are used to feeling like Gods among idiots and approach your replies as such.

Throw a bunch of prints or warns all over your code to find the precise position at which execution hangs, and when you know where it is, come back and tell us.

Now why didn't I think of that? Why would I need to come back and tell you anything after I find out what the issue is? Are you implying I am not capable of fixing it myself? Now go ahead and spout off about how my post was lacking of any information that would allow you to help me at all. I so enjoy seeing this excuse plastered all over this site when peoaple do not understand what they are trying to help with. Better yet tell me how my lack of intelligence is why I would not be able to fix this myself. Then tell me you know just how stupid I am because I could not make you understand my simple question and how you know all about me from a single post.

I haven't had a good downvoting in a while. Thanks for the effort.
