    So do you reply over the quote or under?

    I always reply over the quote. Under would probably make more sense, because it's in chronological order that way. Over makes a lot of sense also, because the other person already knows what the previous stuff was.

    I always quote under, unless the person I converse with goes over. Then I'll swing it that way.

    I think I am an over guy by default myself--sometimes I get confused and they are some over, some under.

    Always under in my posts (unless quote makes part of my text, like in the example that follows), because

    but lately tend to "over" in PMs, because

    I prefer to write it under. I always get confused when it is over.

    I always go under, doesn't make sense otherwise. You don't write from bottom to top, you don't read from bottom to top. The whole flow of the conversation works better when each reply is underneath the last one.

    Normally I reply under, but if the other person goes over I go that way too.

    I'm the same, its seems confusing (and a bit painful) if you are under and the other person is over

    I suppose it might work if none of us had any arms or legs, but that's not what we got.

    I dunno, I switch back and forth randomly, to be honest. Sometimes over, maybe cause I just feel like pushing previous posts out of the way. Under when I'm feeling lazy.
