There seems to be some new members and some established members that are abusing this lately.
This is the rule.
NO BUMPING....unless you have something to add.
just putting the word bump is not acceptable practice on this board.
Clear? |

OK, no bumping is allowed. So let's adopt a "code" to use instead.
How about this, whenever you want to bump something, just post "Is the Photo Gallery working yet?"
Dave Al,
Yous wants I should go rough him up a bit? Y'know people gets lost in the desert all the time...
:D :p :D :p |

It means not to type the word "bump" along with nothing else for the express purpose of
1) moving the thread to the top of the stack for no reason.
2) building up a post count.
Hope that helps you to understand it better. |

| Could we just "Hustle"?
I've always found that a great way to bump your for sale post is to add a lower price to it. |

| Thanks Stephent28!
So I would NEVER threaten the bump to the post account of the hustle price without stacking the lower purpose within the bump itself...never...promised! |

I agree that bumping for a reason other than pure fun, or perhaps bumping more than once in a great while, or bumping for an extended period, or, as previously stated, bumping with a big fat woman should not be tolerated. |
