Bleh.

This is an example of a legit self-promotional bump. :o

No new information is really added (if you ignore the usefulness of the topic itself being viewed by fresh eyes), but this is the first time, it's been way over an hour since the last post and I didn't see this on the front page.

Yep.

I was just told that "it has to be a foursome."
I think the NG public would disown us if we didn't produce a video though.

God damn dude, you could have easily explained it without making the post so long, like simply don't bump a topic just saying bump or repeatedly without any new information like the rules say AND it can't be more then 7 months old.

oh no I dont have a good reason to bump this.


Yes I think suicide is funny and I am sick of pretending its not.

is that wrong?

first, check te old ones if the "answer" you're looking for can be found there. If you want to start a discussion, check the older threads if they are about te exact same things. Also, try to judge the serious-level of the old threads. If they're more or less filled up with crap, i'd say leave it be.

It also very much depends on how many times the topic in question have been made. In some cases a new topic with a twist to it is to prefer, if it's been made before.

great job Zerok, thisone's bookmarked! :D

Shouldn't that be:

Bumping any old topic without a good reason and/OR new information.

Btw, anyone who bumps cockfight<in sig> gets banned appaerntly.. so if you see it on page 1, please contact a mod so they can ban whoever did it ;)

Well, a good reason usually includes new info, so my statement is a tad redundant. Think of it as a textual reinforcer.

Prehaps replacing 'and' with 'with' would be better?

Bumping any old topic without a good reason with new information.

Hold up there. When I bumped a topic excessively on my old account all Maus did was lock the topic and not ban. I then actually sent her a PM requesting the topic be unlocked, and me banned. Sad isn't it?

Response to Guide to Bumping Topics. 2007-05-08 20:35:58


I am bumping this topic because I have 2 questions.

Did Photoshop Cornelius(you know the guy in my sig( get locked because of bumping?

If we bump a topic multiple times, does that mean the topic will get locked and we will get 10-30 ban day if we do so?
