Is there a setting somewhere that would let us choose whether threads read from top to bottom or bottom to top?  As it is, the original post isn't on the first page - it's on the last page (whose number will always change as the thread grows longer), and each time I select a page number, I have to scroll to the bottom first, and start reading upwards for replies.  It's complete backwards from any board I've ever used.

Thanks for any insights.

Click on Profile. Under the Modify Profile menu on the left, click on Look & Layout. There you'll see a list of check boxes. Find "Show most recent posts at top." Un-check the box & then click on Change Profile.

Thank you Prospector Bob!  I've been trying to do this ever since I joined the board!
