Because it violates the usual order of reading messages.

Why should one not top post?


For short messages top or bottom posting  makes no difference 
whatsoever. HOWEVER if the message is longer, with many contributors, 
top posting, ESPECIALLY when there everyone else has bottom posted then 
top posting makes an unreadable mess.
