The type of reply posting I find most offensive is inline posting with no whitespace separation from the quoted text. I've received messages on this list where I scrolled up and down for several seconds looking for what and where the actual comment might have been only to give up in disgust and move on. But otherwise I'm fine with top or bottom posts, with a preference for top. Inline is even fine if enough separation from the quoted text is given to make the comment easily seen and so line wrapping doesn't screw it up.
