Ordering of chats seems weird

I’m talking about this website. I find the way that chat responses are indented and ordered bizarre. Three are a couple chats that I’d like get involved in but they are well established and I’m never quite sure who has responded to what and I find it hard to know where to post - to which reply. I can see the indentation and time of post but the ordering seems weird. There is no flow. Anyone else? Mods, can this be changed, perhaps in a setting somewhere in my profile?

  • I feel the same Arise, I find it infuriating at times. If a thread is more than a few days old I don't get involved with it, many of the people who started it will have left or changed their names and any advise or suggestions maybe rendered irrelevant by time. I don't get the thread archeologists, why disinter ancient threads? I also don't like the way that posts can be inserted into the middle of a thread, it makes things disjointed and hard to follow, it also takes ages of scrolling through a thread to look at a new post.

    Oh no the dreaded I word, I'm a very intutitive person normally, but when intuitive is used in conjunction with tech, it usually means unworkable, set up to make people fail and feel stupid. I think what it really means is the intuition isn't there to make things easier for the user, but for the program to follow you about and get in your way, rather like a tired and bored toddler, pulling on it's parents clothing and whinging.
