If you edit your previous post, will the thread go back up in the forums list ? I don't think so, so if you post something, and after some days you've got some new info about it you wish to share, and nobody has replied to your previous post, people will never notice since your post has sunken away too deep =P

Spam: Any post that is off-topic or contributes nothing useful or interesting to a discussion is considered to be spam. Most spam posts will be moved or deleted. Spam includes posts that:
[*]only contain emoticons.
[*]only contain a short message, such as "LOL" or "hello."
[*]are posted more than once.

I see a split here?

Man, that is so lame. Such a nice welcome you give me, CookieRevised. You say that if people are interested in the topic they will try find it again. Then what if they wan't online when the topic was new and in the top of the forums? Should they look through the last pages to see if there was anything like my topic? This is mu fourth post and it might be the last. Cause this is just way too stupid. Thanks to the ones who are on my side

Well, I'm sorry, but that is just the way it is. If everybody bumps threads, then there is no point in bumping the thread because it wont be on the top anyways because other bumped threads will be on top.

Furthermore, this rule implies to 90% of all the forums on the internet, so it isn't something "we" invented.

Bumping threads/double posting is considered spam in most cases... These are the rules, I'm sorry if you don't agree with them. But if you want to visit this forum, you must try to stick to these rules...

btw: another rule is not to go off-topic in a thread.. Because we all did this (we are discussing a subject which isn't the threads subject) this thread will be splitted. You'll see... and that's also not a dumb rule, it's to keep threads clean and on topic and to not make the forum one big mess

On many forum people are allowed to bump a topic if there is a reason for it. If people can't bump a topic on page 3, should they make a new topic about the exact same thing? In my eyes that would be spamming more than this is

You said so yourself, IF there is a good reason, and in my experience, there is very rarly a good reason... and bumping a thread that is only a few hours old or a day is never a good reason, if you wish to bump a thread then at least wait a couple of days, and only when your new info is very very important and vital, and only then, you may bump it without being told that doubleposting isn't allowed...

blah... even if the rule was that you couldn't bump at all, never, or you be banned, then we still must follow that rule or leave the forum...

When I wish to add things in a thread and my post is the last one made, I just post the information in that latest post again, with my added information, and delete the previous post after I posted it.

It prevents double posting and does indicate a new post

if you have a genuine reason to bump a thread, like you're expecting an important reply, then there's no reason why not to.

don't be so quick to jump on people with a question there's nothing like answering nicely, and nearly nothing like being nice one someone points out you weren't nice in the first place
