Top-posting, do you know what it means?

Do not do this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style#Top-posting

But do this: 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style#Interleaved_style or 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style#Bottom-posting

Again https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Code_of_conduct#Top_posting

Don't expect anyone to take you seriously if you keep doing this even 
after being asked not to, repeatedly.
