Default Mini forum rant

Is there any way to view these threads in chronological order, rather than some dumbass reverse chrono which hurts my eyeballs?

Seriously, who reads threads from newest to oldest?

Check your User CP.

That is stupid. Mine doesn't do it.

That's the first thing I changed after joining. It's a little buried..
  1. Go to User CP
  2. On the left-sidebar under Settings & Options, click Edit Options
  3. Scroll down to the Thread Display Options section
  4. Change Thread Display Mode to Linear - Oldest First

Try clicking on "Display Modes" in the upper right corner of the first post in a thread and set it to "Hybrid Mode"

See if that doesn't work, that fixed it for me. Seeing the last post first drove me crazy as well.

That's always a pain. Why is that the forum's default setting?

Thanks for asking this question. I was wondering the same thing!

Yeah, it's amazingly stupid. Every forum in history including right now does it opposite of this forum's default.

This is strange, as when I registered for the forum I did not have this problem. Perhaps it only came into effect recently?
