I wouldn't be bragging about that if I were you. I was doing telephone
tech support for an ISP back in '96, and nobody, including the suits was
top posting back then.
Gmail does not include this function by default, so why should people
go
into the trouble of having to search what parameters they have to use
for a feature they never use?
Speak for yourself. I use it all the time, and it doesn't take any
searching. Gmail sets up the reply for top posting, but there's nothing
in the world stopping you from moving the cursor down to the bottom
where it belongs, or from trimming extraneous text from what you quote.
(Again, I commend you for knowing how to keep your quoted text to
what's relevant; I just wish that more of you kids would do it. There's
a song from the musical Bye Bye Birdie that's relevant here, but you'd
probably find it offensive, with good reason, and I've no desire to
descend to that level.)
