I'd started leaning a bit your way SFP and Nic and even moreso after a lot of posting on the S& board. Imagine when the board is much longer and having to scroll down over and over.

I guess I had a couple concerns though. A lot of people here and hopefully more to come are former Fox boarders who are used to the other way and I didn't want to confuse them wondering how the forum begins. That will put my snazzy :-p introductory posts at the bottom. Oh well.

Also I worry that if people respond later to an older post way down the page it will get lost and not be seen because people wouldn't be looking that far down. If there was a good way to indicate new posts and where and when they are then that might help. Someone at tech support suggested having "new post' flags but it hasn't been done yet.

But I can see with a page getting reeeeally long how it would be better to have new posts up top. I'd like to wait a few days though until hopefully we get more immigrants to these boards and then maybe I'll post a message to see what the general opinion of everyone is.
