Tried and Failed

Tried multiple ways to do an introductory post but have mostly failed. I am very old and not overly tech savvy but have certainly posted on many other forums. Navigated to the "Introduction Thread" and posted but it appeared at the bottom of the page instead of the top (or most recent). Can someone give this old man some direction? Don't want this to be a thread starter so if a mod could delete it that would be great. Thanks
