How do you sort your ToTV posts within the threads???

Oldest first or Newest first ?????


Posts referring to other posts by number can be confusing.

Oldest first. Just seems more comfortable reading down the page. This does mean that I have to jump into the middle of the thread to find new post but the "View first unread" button helps.

Newest first. Came that way and never saw any reason to change it.

Oldest first... It's the only correct way...

Always oldest first because when replies are made to other posters (not the OP) without quoting the poster it can be confusing. Another note is when a post is removed but there are replies to it then it’s REALLY CONFUSING! Also depends on if I’m drinking coffee or ahem “something else”

I thought Original Post to Newest Post was the only way it could be done, and I hadn’t quite comprehended that the comments are numbered. Ideally, I read all the comments before choosing to add my own two cents, in case someone else has said the same thing. However, I don’t always succeed.
