EW threads are upside down!

Well to me they are anyway ;o) Every other forum I've ever been on, the oldest post is always at the top, but here it's the other way around. Guess I just need to get used to it over time, but it's doing my head in when I want to start reading a thread, only to have to click on it, then click on the last page .... and then scroll down to just start reading the thing.

It used to annoy me too at first but am used to it now and actually, if you have read a long thread and are checking back to see if there are any more comments then it is quite good that the thread is 'upside down' as you don't have to page down to the end to find the newest comments, so I suppose it's swings and roundabouts...

It's not hard, as such, but it's a real PITA, I agree. Not user-friendly at all, this site :)

It's really not hard to change though. I'm admin on a forum myself and all it really takes is to find the button for the option to switch it the other way around Maybe we could suggest to admin, if I'm not the only one that's finding it hard?

Totally agree, and a 'go to first unread' would be a boon

Yes, absolutely... and many other forums jump to the latest unread post too, which is so helpful. I just can't understand why it's set up like this tbh.

Its especially annoying on long threads! Hope the admin will give some consideration into changing the setup.
