hmm... nice upgrade... but I would think that it would be better if newer messages appear on top by default. :lol:

Is this you, Niicky?

Newer messages at the top by default? That seems nice, but the more I think about it, the more it may seem unnatural for some people to have to go the last page to read the oldest message, and then read up... Most people are used to reading down.

Do you know what I mean? What do you think?

Michael

very nice...

No, it wasn't me Mikey lol. I think it is better to put the new messages on the top, it is far more easier for us to read messages that way ! Just imagine you have 10 pages in General Discussions, you don't want to go to last page to see the latest messages right ? It will be very annoying...

for some new ppl who come to this forum, i'd like to see where the discussion originated (orginal post), so that i can properly post my thoughts. i've notice with most forums, they usually stray off topic. if new post are on top and there were 10 pages, we would have to go all the way back just too see the original post.

About the messages order, my first "instinct" was to expect to see the new messages on top. Maybe because my mail box is setted like this, the newest thing on top so you don't need to scroll down to see your new messages and you expect to see the same thing on the forum.

But now that read the messages on the reverse order, it is also ok, and it stimulate you to read all from the beginning :)
