Venda is right, if you click on the title of the thread (eg. Last Word Sentences) it will take you to the first page of the thread, but clicking on the date will take you straight to the last page.

Thanks for the tip. I did not know that before.

If you could make forum posts show most recent on the top page, it’d make life much simpler.
List them all in LATEST FIRST, then scanning down the comments that lead up to it would be quicker and easier

Why would one want to read posts in reverse order?

Online forums have had posts in time order ever since BBSes.

Agreed. Blogs have to be read from the bottom up, and that's annoying enough. Leave the forums alone.
