RE: Bump everything
bump!


Bumping is mostly used to get rid of caching issues caused by a WordPress plugin (I guess it's W3TC). As the /forums/ folder lies within the WordPress directory, W3TC caches forum pages as well. If you happen to post something right after the server cached how the certain thread looked like, your post is not going to appear. This is to reduce server bandwidth usage but quite annoying. Occasionally, when somebody else posts something else afterwards, the cache for that particular thread gets cleared, displaying all posts that have been made.

This is the main reason people are bumping threads everywhere. It's not a cool solution but it's one of the few ways to avoid the caching issues.



PS. I voted for "Let's do it" and "I spend way too much time in here"! Big Grin

RE: Bump everything
If every thread got bumped in the reverse order...nothing Tongue End up with the same arrangement of threads. And it would take a long time. Particularly if everyone bumped each thread once Big Grin

RE: Bump everything
