Is this forum backwards?

First, let me start by giving a big thanks to everyone involved with this project, I truly appreciate it.

Now to my question:

Why is it that this forum sorts all the posts in reverse? On every other forum the latest post is on the last page. On this forum the last post is on page 1. Is there a reason for this? It seems counter intuitive and google fails to index the pages incorrectly because the posts keep switching pages.

It's an option in your settings.

I see, that's good to know! Although, I assume google can't make this decision which makes the search results from google almost unusable. I think the default should be [Newest post on last page] so that google results actually points to the correct page of the post.

And even crazier, my laptop sometimes orders the post correctly (1st post up) and sometimes opposite.
