If you bottom post and the screen is full, no one will see your post
unless they scroll to the bottom. If they have already read the previous
posts in the thread, they don't need to read them again. They will just
want to see the most recent response. By having the most recent at the
top, no scrolling is needed, and the threads can be scanned faster.

Rest assured, top-posting vs bottom-posting is *not policed* in here.
Message content is much more important than message format. So long as
your messages are polite, respectful, helpful, and on topic, it doesn't
matter if it is top-posted, if nothing is trimmed, or if it's in HTML.
Requests about format just take focus away from the reason why we're all
here: to help each other use SeaMonkey. :)
As I said, requests about format take focus away from helping people use
SeaMonkey. In other words, top-posting vs bottom-posting debates are
off-topic and don't belong here. They always end up turning into long
pissing matches, and no-one ever changes their opinion.
So please take this debate somewhere else, thanks.
