I don't bother to read a lot of top-posted messages. Especially on long
threads with all of the replies included.

I would have to scroll all the way down to the bottom to find out what the
top-posting is in reply to, then scroll all the way back up to read the
reply.

The real issue, as far as I'm concerned, has little to do with whether one
top-posts or bottom posts. It has to do with trimming what's not relevant
to your reply. If you don't trim, and leave lots of irrelevant quoted
material, it takes lots of scrolling to be able to understand your reply.
If you trim adequately, your reply is generally easy to find, read, and
understand, whether it's on the top or the bottom.
