Thread sort order

I'm curious how oldest first would be better: wouldn't we have to go to the last page every time there was a new post? Also, a majority of forums on apps/websites these days are newest first.

It's what we had before.  Nobody complained, This is new.

In most forums, clicking on the 'NEW' icon or equivalent will take you to the last unread post. This seems more natural than the current default setting.
May be give individual user option to see how they want??

And clicking in "New" took one to the latest posts... at the bottom of the last page.

Just felt right. Like every other forum, the total of which I waste most of my day on :)

Scrolling down to go back in time is weird, no? We don't read books back to front.

I'm in for the option to toggle between the two. Still, i guess forums are distinct from books then!

Thread sort order has been changed to latest first. Can it be set back to oldest first, which reflects natural reading order?

I looked for any setting I could change as a personalised setting. I didn't find one. Is there one?

Any post on an admin topic would be incomplete without this: Many thanks to our hosts, admins and moderators for keeping the forum going :)
