What\'s wrong with these Boards?
 

Sorry that this is off-topic, but I couldn't find a proper place to ask this.

Is there something wrong with these Boards? I've been lurking around here for a couple days now and ever thread I've read has the newest post at the top of the thread and the oldest at the bottem. Like the "Important SEIV Information & stuff" thread; the first post for me is the Last post on page 2. It's very confusing. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

That's how this BBS runs it - most recent threads at the top of the list, most recent Posts at the top of each thread. You just get used to it.

Welcome aboard, BTW.

There is nothing "wrong" with them, it just just a different style. You can use the Printer Friendly links at the bottom of threads if you want to read everything in "old to new" order. But, "new to old" makes it so the new Posts are always at the front, so you don't have to waste time scrolling past old ones you have already read.

You get used to it, and come to like it far more than the standard at other forums.
