Don't be so hasty in accusing the writers of screwing up on this
particular 
issue. For one thing, we don't know exactly how the time discrepancy
works. 
Real time and island time may not pass in constant pro****tion to each
other 
or maybe there's a sort of time bubble that an object p***** through. And 
maybe the travel velocity of the two different objects has an effect. A 
slower object may create a bigger gap in time to the point that it's gone 
backward in time in the real world. I'm inclined to side with the bubble 
theory since conversations between people on the island/freighter and 
Charlie/Penny have taken place without any distortion.

I further sup****t this theory because when Desmond called Penny, it was 
supposedly Christmas Eve on both the freighter and in London. And
according 
to timelines viewers have made, it was also around Christmas Eve in island

time. That would mean that in three months there was no discernible 
difference in the passage of time between the island and the real world.
So 
maybe objects passing through the bubble are subject to a one-time time 
****ft that varies per object.
