Need Help for the way the Board Reads

[Steve K (IA)]

Ever since this new board started, the messages read (on my computer) from bottom to top and from back to front.  Did that make any sense?

Let me try and explain.  If I open a post and there are more than 2 messages, I have to go to the bottom of the page to see the first post and then work my way up to the top.  If there is more than 1 page....lets say 3, I have to go to the 3rd page, scroll down and work my way up....click on page 2....scroll down and work my way up.  I know this can't be right.  It is maddening.   When I open a post, I would think, and expect the first post would be on the top and the next one down would be the post made by the second person.  Not the post that was made last.  What do I look for to change this?

Click on profile... it is up there in a bar of stuff to click on... you should see it up above on a line that
starts "home   help    search    profile ..."

A whole page of your profile stuff should come out... look to the left under "modify profile", and click on
"look and layout preferences"... a bunch of things to check or uncheck will come up... sounds like you
have "show most recent posts at the top' clicked.... unclick it and see what happens... if that's not it,
look all around there and see if you can find something to click or unclick to get things more the way
you like them...

Thanks Mike.  That did it.  I can't believe I have been struggling with this all this time.  There was a box checked..."most recent posts on top", or something close to that wording.  

Now I will have to get used to seeing it the correct way.  Or what I would consider the correct way.

Two other items to consider if you don't already.

Select the post by pointing to the "new" flag and it will point you to the first reply after the last one you read.

In your profile change your theme from default to "Endless Multicolor".  I think it reads more easily.

Options.  If we only knew which ones are there we would know how to make our experience better.
