As I too needed some time to understand, what you mean by this, here is
the explanation:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style#Top-posting

My first understanding was: "Do not post a new question on top of an
existing post/therad"

So please give a little more help on that term. Not all people here are
native speakers and searching this term on non-english web results in
irritation often. In German Wikipedia e. g. there are no equivalents.
