Messages not in chronological sequence

For the past several days, whenever I go into the forum, either logged in or not, rather than seeing the usual sequence of posts starting with most recent at top, I'm seeing topics in alphabetical order.

I assume I've pushed some sequence of keys by mistake. I don't find anything in FAQs. Help?

Thanks,
Kim Mortimore

When you enter the Stuka Stunt Lobby, you have a cnhoice of six forums. When you enter a particular forum, look at the dark blue bar at the top. You will see the following (in white letters):

Sort Topics by..... Topic ID | Discussion Topic | Author | Last Updated Date/Time | Views | Rating

This is the area where you have a choice as to how you will choose to view it. By clicking "Author", for instance, you can then scan down and get each author's posts all together. You might even discover who has made the second highest number of posts to the forum (any guesses?)

The default view, and the way you are accustomed to viewing the forum is when the sort order is by "Last Updated Date/Time". Click on this and it will be back to the way you are expecting it.

Oh, and you are not the first to change the sort order by mistake. Maybe I need to add this into the FAQ's.

Thanks, Leonard. As my granddad used to say, "Good thing it wasn't a rattlesnake, son, or you'd be toes-up right now." I was trying to be a good Stuka citizen and check it out completely for the answer myself before shooting of a dumkopf (sp?) message. I just wasn't paying attention to white type on a dark background. I would vote for adding it to the FAQs.
