It's "the law". Now, what is the __logic__ behind not top posting a "Thanks everyone! I got it!" once everything is understood and it's the __last_post__. Top-posting in such an instance is more convenient for everyone. They don't have to scroll down. Just a "thank you!" and goodbye. While I agree with the logic of not top posting for every other instance, isn't that more logical in __this__ instance? V -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
