Question about order of messages in threads:

Posted by Janelle on September 4, 2006, at 23:53:10

I posted a reply to someone (checked the box to include that person's name) within a thread on another board and thought my reply would appear right below the person to whom I was replying. However, my reply came out at the bottom of the thread, so to speak, meaning it was the most recent posting there.

I would have thought that when a person replies to a specific other person as I did, that the reply would be fit in right below the original post?

How does it work regarding the order of messages within threads when a person replies directly to someone else's post within the same thread?

Gosh, I hope I'm making my question clear!

The order of posts is oldest to youngest; youngest
is at the bottom of the thread.

I follow what you wrote ... so even if I post a reply to a specific person within a thread, it being the "youngest" post, means it will go at the BOTTOM of the thread, not be inserted right under the person it replies to? Thanks.
