    Well I mean 4 points for one supposed "bump" is a little excessive.

    I mean i'm just curious. If a thread dies would they like for me to create a new thread? I mean, lmao. I think that would be more of a menace than me bringing up one of my half day old threads!

    1. The admin doesnt care who you are, I wonder if he's even logged in for a couple of days.

    2. Yes, the thread you pointed to was a bump. You might have gotten multiple infractions for multiple bumps, which must've been deleted.

    Hope this clears it up :)

    Add #6 for double posting.

    And it was a bump - you made 2 consecutive posts (double post again) in the space of 9 minutes when one would have done. It's more economical to use the edit button.

    Sorry.

    All I try to do is post on here to gain knowledge.

    I feel like i'm living in a communist society.

    What's #7 going to be anyone?

    A bump is a bump. Just start a new thread but be carefully for starting one 2 soon that is related to the other thread.

    Erm, might be being dumb here but what's a forecast of infraction? Is that when they predict you're going to get one before you really do? :confused:
    That really would be like a communist state!

    That's the whole point. If your thread is dying, that means the interest level on Digital Point has run its course. Let it die! If you bump it, you are displacing other threads near the top whose interest level has not yet died. And that is an injustice to the originators of and participants in those still-active threads.

    When threads die, let 'em die! They all do, sooner or later.

    If you give a good enough reason to be given an infraction, they sure, why no t search their profile for other stuff :)

    No, please, don't start another thread on the same topic if the interest level on that topic is finished.

    Maybe we should make a new tool for this, we could call it infraction prediction.

    Try not to let the infraction bother you and be more careful in the future.

    Thanks Brian

    I posted my 2nd post like 10 minutes afterwards due to forgetting to post original information in my original post. I'm sure I wasn't far down the list because of only 10 minutes, I wasn't even checking. I guess it's my fault for not using the edit button, but a 10 minute span post considered bumping cost me 4 points... so be it.
