I was just wondering if this board has always been listed alphabetically instead of chronologically by the last post? It is very hard to find a post or response when it's listed this way. The other boards are listed by the last replay of a post. Scrolling endlessly is awful.

You have almost 600 posts and have obviously been on the website forums for a while. How forums operate depends on their software program. Some website offer the ability to opt to view threads in order from most recent to oldest post. Yes, scrolling down through posts is a pain. You can always use Control and End tp get to the end of a thread to view the most recent post in a thread. You can also ignore threads that have a high number of posts.

Maybe I didn't explain myself correctly - this is the only forum on the site that is like this, and it isn't a matter of the last post in the thread - it's the entire thread. They are alphabetical, not by date. Meaning if you post a thread on May 9, but the title of the thread starts with "Z", you might find it on page 3 of this [Ultimate Bathroom] board even if it has a current reply. None of the other boards are like this - they all list the thread with the most recent response first. That is why I put a "1" in front of my topic...so I could find it!

Interesting. I just thought no one posted here very often because they were so old. (I mean the posts were old... not the people... oh, dear, I am just making it worse

I never noticed it either since I don't visit much. But I had wondered why there weren't any recent posts.
I wonder if there is somewhere on the site to notify the webmaster. |

I don't know, but it's stupid, and very annoying. I never read this forum simply because it's impossible to find the threads if you don't remember the precise name of the thread.
