That would be... confusing.

I mean, I understand where you are coming from, but you read everything from top to bottom, at least in English and the romantic languages. Having the newest posts be on top would be a little strange, especially if you need to backtrack to find out what is going on. Then you would need to read top to bottom in each post while scrolling up the page from the bottom to the top to see what is going on.

I've seen a few forums set up that way and I never stay on them long.

It might be a little better if the newest post was duplicated and put on top with the rest of the thread was in order, but I'm not sure our website is even capable of doing that.

Now that you mention it - it would be slightly confusing, especially for the story department. Such a shame special tweaks can't be made.
