Back when this latest edition of NAT was started one of the things discussed was whether the posts should stay in order or move to the top of the list when a new post was made to the thread.  At the time I was one of those who preferred the way it is now.  I'm not so sure it wasn't just a response to how somebody else's board was set up and not wanting to say they were right

I'm not so sure anymore.

It is good in that you have a pretty good idea where the thread will be.  But after using the other way, and one non-farm board I am on regularly is possibly more active than this, I think moving threads to the top might be preferable.

It does make finding things a bit more difficult.  But not much.  And active threads stay right on top so you can catch new responses easier.

What does anyone else think?

Here is a link to a local board that does it that way:
