Hello, my suggestion (that would be extremely helpful to trading forums) is regarding "early bumping."
Why make it a rule, when it can simply be enforced automatically by the "system" (site) itself?

Do not allow a user to post "back-to-back" until 4 hours have passed since his last post (in that thread).

Voted no,
they'd just make a new topic instead of bumping the old one.

Perhaps the "New thread" in a trading forum section, could be forced to be a 5 minute wait.

Honestly: Who needs to create a new thread every 10 minutes anyways?

still even every 5 minutes wouldnt' solve any problems....

they'd still make a new thread every 5 minutes for the same shitty item.

Then what's the point in moderators closing threads with "Early bumps?"

there is no point seeing as how they never hand out warns for those offenses.

what's the point in them closing any thread for that matter.... the vast majority of the time warns are given is for pron.....

I stopped reporting threads a long ass time ago.

Then why would you disagree with this idea?

It will prevent the need of closing threads, which will be reposted anyhow.
It will also slow down the amount of threads posted!

Haven't we all?
I would probably start taking the time to report again when I see a violation if anything ever got done about it.
There's no point in wasting the time reporting just so they can close, if no warns are handed out and they make another topic 45 seconds later.

I disagree because people would just post another thread instead of bumping their current thread... your suggestion solves nothing.


aint that the truth
