Topic: Posts shown in reverse order Posted: January 08 2009 at 01:10 |
I just noticed that suddenly the posts in a thread appear in reverse order, with the latest at the top instead of at the bottom. Is this a new feature? If so, I have to say this: While it may be a good thing to have the latest post on top if you are actively taking part in an ongoing discussion, it is extremely annoying to read the reply to a post before the post itself when you take a first look at a thread. I would definitely like the "latest post first" feature to be optional.

No, that just means the thread is becoming buggy and you need to start a new one, it's not a new thing.

Well, then all threads are becoming buggy, because it is happening with all now, even with this.

The latest posts also appear to be on page 1 for me now, not, for example, on page 134, provided the thread has 134 pages.

Well, it seems to have been a temporary problem, probably caused by the software update. I solved it by signing out and signing back in again; I had been online while the software was updated; that may have caused the problem.
