Bumping forsales

Post by modern bliss »

Now I'm all for the bump if the items been buried back on the second third fourth ect page, but come on what the f*#k. 'pat' and 'illegalfun' are bumping there s*#t when it gets halfway down the first
Page, usually after only a few hours

i also think it should be a rule that if one user has whole bunch of related parts ie, tg s*#t, it should all be in the same post.

i really hate coming on here after a few days and click view new posts in the non-tech forums and sift through 2 pages of the same persons separate for sale threads.

not:
-FS, TG lights

-FS, TG front guards

-FS, TG Doors

-FS, TG Boot lid

etc etc...

instead:

-Wrecking TG, FS Gemini Parts

or something like that.

(i'm not taking a shot at any individual, so if someone fore-mentioned comes here and says "urrgghh, i do not do that!!" this is my flaming rights :lol: :lol: )

Yeah agreed, it's a form of 'flooding'. It overpowers everyone else and forces others down the page more as well as an annoyance when you see the 'new posts' just to find it's the same old s*#t bumped for the fourth time.

If I recall, the new software does have some protection options in it to limit bumping. The fact is, anyone who has read the post would have replied and anyone who hasn't will see it as a new post so there really is no need to bump at all.

IT'S BETTER TO SHOUT IN THE FIRST INSTANCE SO YOU GET ATTENTION, SAVES HAVING TO GO BUMPING LATER.
