Shouldn't have to scroll through thread to answer Q or see the most recent answer.

And if you have to scroll through a list of open questions, shouldn't you start with the oldest ones that are still open?

Hmm, I rather like seeing the thread displayed from first reply to last. That way I can see how the discussion evolved over time. Some threads read almost like a novel. :D

Well, for me, I'd rather scroll and see that (you have to scroll through anyways, but when answering a Q, both the Q itself AND the most recent answer should be visible.

Seems like flip-flopping the order would be an easy solution to that...without impeding the ability to see how the thread evolves.

Well maybe to satisfy both, just leave as-is, and place the original Q at the bottom somewhere, so we can see it while we type.

There ya go, like OOUEU IDEA: Make it a part of the static profile bar at the top! Just a little thing that pops down over the the user's open question, only while you're typing answer. Have it minimize when you leav
