Gmail is top posting by default. Changing that for people would be hard. Personally I don't care which one, but with bottom posting I have to scroll ALL THE WAY down to the bottom(and I'm a lazy bas**d :P) <div class="gmail_quote"> On Mon, Apr 4, 2011 at 8:59 PM, Darcy Casselman <<a href="mailto:dscassel@gmail.com">dscassel@gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"> I prefer top-posting, personally. :) <div class="im"> On Mon, Apr 4, 2011 at 8:52 PM, Kip Warner <<a href="mailto:kip@thevertigo.com">kip@thevertigo.com</a>> wrote: > (4) When you reply, remember to reply at the bottom and not on the top. > Top posting is generally not encouraged because it makes preservation of > chronological order difficult to follow for readers. </div>I acknowledge mixing top-posting and bottom posting is confusing. But most mail clients default to top-posting these days, so most newbies top-post. Most old school mailing list people try to enforce bottom posting. It ends up being a mess. I think it's a losing battle. I just roll with it and not fret too much. Life's too short, really.
