Would it be easier to read and follow up if the latest reply/entry be placed in the front/top instead of all the way at the bottom? Especially with multiple replies, it is just a pain to have to scroll down to see the latest comment/reply...
Ed, what do you think???

Typically on web forums, it goes top to bottom.
However, there are other mechanics that could be introduced. For example:
- An "unread" link driven by cookies that takes you directly to the next unread post.
- A "quote" button that allows you to neatly quote selected text in another post.
- A preview button.
- A larger edit window.
- Picture embedding capability.
- etc...
See here for an example of a very advanced but easy to use forum. http://www.airliners.net/discussions/tech_ops/

We have a Go to Bottom Option on each thread which I think is quite user friendly

Hi Ed,
I would think those optional button would work, but they don't at least from when I try to presss it... I tried the "Go to bottom" and reply button shown at the top of each thread and they don't react... Is anyone else getting the same reaction???

Seems to be an IE issue - we will fix asap.
Suggest you change to the superior firefox browser http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
