    Hey guys,

    Just wanted to say hi. This forum looks great. There is tons of good info. I am hoping to learn and be able to contribute.

    I've been in IM for a bit of time now and loving it.

    Take care,

    noorodeen,

    ps. I just got an infration for bumping a thread, what in the world does that mean?

    Hello and welcome to DP.

    Bumping a thread means you posted in it for no reason other than to get the thread show up as high up as possible in the list again.

    it's an acronym:

    Bring
    Up
    My
    Post

    it's just what johan-cr said.

    a good example...."PM Sent" well of course the person knows you sent the PM ;)

    I didn't know what a 'bump' was or what 'infraction' meant so I've learnt from you already!

    Welcome to DP, may you continue to post more of these informative posts :)

    Cheers, p.

    Thank you for all your welcoming posts and for explaining thread bumping. I'll be sure to watch out from now on.

    Boy, it's somewhat intimidating to be in a forum where you get infractions associated with your history. :eek:

    It's a lovely place to be really - and no one else can see them.
