The problem we are experiencing is not "newest vs. oldest". The problem we are experiencing is that the threads are being organized in alphabetical order. I don't think any of us want the forum to be sorted by alphabetical order. In addition, it is a new exerience so it is not a quirk in the software unless there were changes made to the software in the last three weeks. The must likely culprit is that a setting was changed approximately 3 or 4 weeks ago. Perhaps the webmaster can look into what settings were changes 3 or 4 weeks ago.

It would be greatly appreciated if the forum returned to being posted in reverse chronological order.

Let the Webmaster configure sorts by date (descending) not by alphabetical order!
The later must be the default.

The recent changes might resulted to faster response time as it is currently.
For long the response time was very slow and annoying.

Whatever the changes were - platform or application update/upgrade they are successful and we are grateful.
