The rule is that if you top post it makes it very hard or impossible for
people to follow the conversation if they have'nt seen the previous posts.

If you want to read what new the skip to the parts without >'s infront or
cut away needless quotes.
You could also get a newsreader that jumped to the new stuff automaticly.

But stop top-posting and ruining the experience for the rest of us.
