Why don't the posts in threads get listed by chronological order?
Is there some order to this chaos?
Does it just show up like this on my screen?

Hmmmm well as I look at the threads below, all the responses appear to be in chronological order.   Has this been something you've always noticed or just recently?  Possibly a browser problem but that would seem odd.  It didn't appear to be a setting within Account Manager either.  Maybe others can chime in so we can start to narrow this down for you.

There's the main post/thread, then there can be numerous replies/quotes to it.
And there can also be replies/quotes to that.

It goes in order from the first reply.
The replies to the replies will go under the reply.

lol your so cute i have always wondered the same thing. I assume its a favoritism(not sure if that is the correct word, i mean like it seems the more outstanding people are posted first)/order of status thing like paid members then hot girls then the others.

I've posted and my things have shown up days later! I never wanted to stir the pot and ask..........


great question i hope to learn this as well!!!!! woot woot

if your posts are going up days later, it's because you're being moderated. Meaning someone approves your post before they go up on the board. Use the "contact us" feature and ask ter adm. to unmoderate you so your posts can go up instantly.

I use safari on here, and not all of the posts are out of order, just some of them....

SO weird....

I think it's position can also change depending on if you hit quote or reply.

just thought it was the delay in the electrons flying through the air.  Been times I wished I could have had mine back, not that's another story...

Another observation is that

It especially happens if my view is on "flat" instead Of "tree"

I'm replying directly under your PO thread/  Notice the date on my post
