Shouldn’t the most recent comments be first, not last?

  …Why is the most recent comment shown on the thread’s LAST PAGE…rather than at the top of the FIRST PAGE???

  …Would it not be more convenient, to display the newest comments…FIRST???…rather than LAST???

  NO THE MOST RECENT COMMENTS SHOULD NOT BE SHOWN IN REVERSE CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER

  nor should they be in all caps.

  I agree it would just cause confusion and disrupt the conversation dialog…

  I hate when sites put the latest comments first. It’s impossible to understand the train of conversation, especially if you’re coming to the party late.

  Please be mindful of your tone when answering a question in the forums.

  The only good option to read and understand a thread is as it are now, in chronological order. Inverted option may be useful for lazy people, mainly in order to write responses without sense.
  I hope my tone to be kindly.
