This doesn't really need to be a sticky or an announcement but I just want to remind everyone -- a while ago we unlocked the main Trade Post sub-forum so everyone can post their opinions/suggestions/comments/complaints once again. Please feel free to do that. No one has seemed to post anything and I'm not sure if it's because you don't want or need to or if it's because you feel like you're not allowed to. Just know that you're allowed. We like hearing from you. )
I'll be bumping this a few times before it sinks into oblivion. Or some of you can just post a comment relating to this matter. ;)

I have something I would like to bring up. I bump my thread once a day usually between 7pm and 11pm. I just found out that we have to wait a full 24 hours this really bites!!! If I get off work at 11 and get it bumped by 1130pm but Saturday night I don't work and can be at my computer at 7 or 8 pm why can't I bump it then??
In order to comply I would have to give up my bump the nights I work OR AlWAYS bump that late even if I am not staying up that late??
I mark everyone of my bumps, Monday bump, Tuesday bump etc. and never bump in the same day. And if I bumped after 20 hours it is going to equal out when in a few days I don't bump for 28 hrs. I mean if you go through and see that someone only bumped once a day does bumping a few hours early really make a difference to anyone??
I see people could mis use being able to bump early, bumping every 20 hours and sneaking in an extra bump every 5 days, but that bump would have to fall within the same day as another, then they are busted.
Come on lets take a good look at making this easier on everyone and changing the rule to you can bump ONCE between 1200am and 1159 pm eachday. CONVIENENCE!! and then we can bump when our schedules allow us to be at our computer and help newbies each day!

You're making it to complicated... bump once every 24 hours, pretty simple to me..
If you bump at March 4th at 8am don't bump your thread again till March 5th 8am....
------------------
As for my comments, it's still the same just different now. I say limit the cash trade section to a certain TR

If I bump at 7pm
then cannot bump until 11 pm the next night (i would need to give up this bump, unless I wanted to bump after 11pm EVERY night)
bumping once between 1200am and 1159pm IS simple!!

We'll tolerate a bump that's like an hour early (23 hours). So you could bump at 1030PM on Saturday nights if you're worried about staying up to late to wait for that bump. I personally think once every 24 hours is fine and I've never had a problem with it. I don't make the rules, I just enforce them. I will say though, I don't really like the idea of people being able to bump frequently. The more time in between (without reaching the point of ridiculousness) is better.
You should continue this in the main sub-forum so it'll get more attention than here in this crowded Cash trading section. I didn't really mean post comments/suggestions/complains and etc. in this thread. lol

At the risk of sounding really stupid... I don't know what forum you are talking about

Your concern would best go in "Guidelines and Rules For The Forum" in there. ;)

Yeah, I here ya. I forgot you had to wait a WHOLE 24 hrs. to bump because other forums let you bump so many times a day and do not specify the time, unlike this one. So I bumped a whole 4 hrs. early yesterday and got my trade thread locked. I mean cmon, as long as we are only bumping once a day, who cares if it's within exactly 24 hrs or after. I totally agree, time should not be a factor, days should be a factor. OH well, I'll just move on to another forum for today.
