I also prefer top posting.  It makes life a lot simpler.

For what it is worth, I agree 100%. I have also been top posting for over 30
years.

A lot of times when I open a thread, and, do not see anything but previous
posts, I delete the whole thing. Why should I go all the way to the bottom
to see what someone may have said, or, to even see if there is something
there. Unfortunately, I probably miss out on some good info this way, but, I
do not have the patience to sort through it all. If I have been following
the threads then I know what has been said anyway. If I have not, the latest
top reply might peak my interest.

Another thing that really annoys me is when people comment inside of a
previous post, about every paragraph/sentence or so. Most of the time it is
difficult to tell what was the previous post and when the new response
begins.

Just put it all on top. Regards - Mike

Then you should change your MUA so it puts your .sig at the top, too.
Right now, you're both top and bottom posting.
