The text was undoubtedly written left to right and top to bottom, but there are numerous instances where smaller or larger bits were apparently added or inserted later.
I am not aware of any systematic analysis of this, but I have seen some peculiarities over the years.
The example from Wladimir with the two shades of ink is one such case.
I have seen vertical jumps in the writing baseline that repeated at roughly the same point on several consecutive lines.
The third paragraph on You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. shows something and the first paragraph looks suspicious as well.
The second paragraph of You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. shows signs that the initial characters were written first, and the rest added later.
f85r1 shows several instances where it looks as if the writing of a lower line affects the line above it.
