Most people and especially those that are new to the lists will
top-post because that is what they are most familiar with. 

Perhaps you have encountered that somewhere:

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is it such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.
Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail?

In my entire life I have never seen any mailing list or Usenet group with so 
much top-posting and unneeded quotes as this one. Since this is user support 
group, it should be just ignored in most cases (we want to help user, not 
bully them). But I think that people who often write to group should adapt to 
basic mailing etiquette. It isn't that hard, really.
