TOPIC: [Forums] Bump Limiting

I swear I remember when you couldn't double post on your thread or bump before 24 hours.

Anything is possible, because as I stated that this could easily be enforced underneath the TOU listed as "Be Patient" Someone who bumps their application nearly every few hours clearly isn't being patient, and I see no good reason for anyone to be allowed to bump repeatedly.

I haven't heard nor seen anything listed as such, or I'm sure @Raeker of all people would of made me aware of it, and since he hasn't, I doubt there is such a thing.

Unconstructive posting (that "bumping" falls under) isn't allowed, so bumping a post too much will result in a forum ban. How much can be considered "too much" is up to the forum staff member, and I do believe some leniency is required.

Silly suggestion its not even a big problem and if people are doing it unnecessarily it usually just gets locked.

Bad idea.

While I do agree that a rule might be unnecessary, I would like to see a little bit more presence and attention when it comes to repeatedly bumping of ones post, because while someone people might say "It's not a problem." They clearly don't care enough or read the posts that have this problem. When I go through someone's application, and their application hasn't even been up from for more than two days, I shouldn't have to see that 9 of the replies are from them bumping every few hours, and even during the forums "Busiest" times, it still isn't required to bump it as often as people do it.
