LOL, that's funny.
I do have a seemingly silly question though...what does 'Bump' mean?
I've posted on other forums before but have never seen this, so I really can't figure out the context?? |

In some forums, like lonely planet eg, just adding * Bump * will shift the entire thread to the top of the forum, where it may attract new replies. The older a thread is without new replies, the lower down it sinks. After 3 months, it drops off entirely. Not nice if the subject is a missing person.

It bumps the thread to the top of the listings on the forum page. |
