Is there any reason the newest posts in a thread are closer to the top?

Like, it goes..

Wouldn't it make more sense as..

It would be nice to at least have an option to change it for myself, or if I am just not seeing it, direct me to where it is.

If you look at say, this

If you look at say, this thread, I made my post before Aaron (insaniac) made his, yet his is above mine. Also with this post, which I used the 'Post Reply' button in the bottom left or top left, rather than the 'Reply' button in your post.

Though I didn't realize you could reply to either the topic post, or reply to replies.

So as of now it looks like..

basically there's three

basically there's three options:
#1, flat list
#2, threaded list
#3, we load a different forum
currently, the posts are chronologically ordered, and while you can reply to an individual (ala YouTube style), you can use the form at the bottom of the thread, and post without interjecting the existing conversation.

personally, being a YouTube addict, this made sense and I didn't see any issue.

maybe I should start another vote?
