    What does bump mean when you see it in a listing?

    The default sort method of topics on the forum is by recent activity.

    Sellers “bump” their listing to the top by posting the word “bump” in their listing. This is done if the topic hasn’t had any recent posts in (as recent posts would themselves “bump” the topic)

    Members may use one “bump” per day in their listing. More than this would count as excessive use and abuse of the system.

    Bumping topics - and abuse of this feature  

    The Silver Forum has been active since 2014 and all forum members have so far traded without excessive bumping of their trade topics. Without instruction forum members have followed etiquette and have not abused bumping their topics. However, we have decided to add this bit into the QuickStart guide to avoid any potential future abuse by new members as the forum grows. Should you have a trade listing that has not had any recent posts in it; you may, a maximum of once per day, post the word “bump” in order to bump your listing to the top. Note that every time a member comments in your topic, your topic is bumped to the top, therefore there is no need to use the word “bump” if your topic has already been posted in on that day.


    The forum's Terms and Conditions as of October 2020, in regards to bump reads:

    7.3.18. Should you have a trade listing that has not had any recent posts in it; you may, a maximum of once per day, post the word “bump” in order to bump your listing to the top. Note that every time a member comments in your topic, your topic is bumped to the top, therefore there is no need to use the word “bump” if your topic has already been posted in on that day. Using the bump feature by using the word “bump” more than once per day would count as excessive use and abuse of the system. Any post in a trade topic by the topic author could count as excessive bumping irrespective of the contents of the post and at the sole decision of the Moderation team / Administrator. We therefore ask you not to abuse the system.
