suggestion for Buy/Sell/Trade forum

AmericanDemon:
I've been browsing several boards on the web trying to purchase various computer parts.  Several of these boards have a nice rule for their trade forum.  Its simply this...

If you read a For Sale thread, add a bump to it.  This keeps the forum in motion and provides a rotating look at the items for sale. 

I started doing it today and it already has helped to sell one item.  Give it a shot!  Also, most places only allow the author to bump the thread once every 4 hours to keep it legit.

Yeah I know wrong forum... but any thoughts before the mods move me?  ;)

I agree about the 4 hours being too much.  24 hours is a much better minimum time limit for bumping your own thread.

If your post is still on the first page, please don't bump. If you must bump, don't bump more than once a week. Spammy :)

You know, since the B/S/T forum can be kinda slow like quarterback said, I guess 24 hours would be kinda excessive.  I guess I'm just used to when I sell XBOX stuff over on X-S.  Of course, out of all my FS threads here I think I've only bumped one, and it didn't do me any good. :P
