I agree entirely.
However, it is not the top-posters who originate the rather silly neurotic threads on the matter. It is the bottom-posters who so behave and so illustrate their mental problems. (As do religionists demonstrate their mental problems in that they live in a world of make-believe) The top-posters only exercise their right of reply to state the truth that top-posting _IS_ the preferred option.

It's not just my opinion, it's the blatant truth that you get to
see the new content without having to page down through loads of already-seen quotations. "Tony VE6MVP" wrote in message ...

Your outburst below seems to be self-referential
in terms of bad manners. There is no association with manners in the free and personal choice of whether to post at the top or at the bottom, it's just that - a free choice. There is nothing that it impolite in exercising a free choice as to style of presentation - if you think that there is - then you condemn yourself by being impolite to those of us who are top-posters. That you choose to target those whose choice is not your own would seem to suggest that if anybody be the habitué of bad manners, then it is you. There are no rules on the matter. Your post below is a shining example of why top-posting is the better and preferred option, for, in order to read what you put, a page down was necessary. Another example of bad manners from you, in fact, because you inconvenience those who just sit on the "next" button to thumb through a NG. "Clarence_A" wrote in message om...

Another bad mannered top poster made his insensitive obvious and ignore good advice so attempt to prove his defective preference for breaking rules and being a general pain! What do you need to teach manners? I see your mother failed! Also you are not even trying! There are rules by convention. But you choose to ignore them. Since we are all free to exercise one option. Finding a poster where there is no intelligence conveyed! PLONK! BYE |

For someone who is shouting the odds about
bad manners, your outburst below really takes the biscuit. It is the most hypocritical of rudeness. Conventions are not rules - if they were to be so, then everyone, including you, would follow the convention of top-posting. As to your rather silly and infantile outburst below.... Firstly, it is random nonsense and complies with none of the conventions (or, in your own logic, rules) of written English - hypocrisy once again from you, it would seem. Secondly, grow up, Clarence! Stupid boy. "Clarence_A" wrote in message ... "Clarence_A" wrote in message Bad manners are no excuse! Learn to be polite and follow the rules!
