forum policy: bumping???

[Imacflier]

I have read in moderator responses to threads which had been bumped that it is against forum policy to bump threads.

Is this a hard and fast rule or can I bump a thread that is a week old with no answers?

Please advise since I could not find a list of forum policies when I searched for it!

Bumping is not allowed, except in the Classified section.

Threads in the Classifieds section, and only in the Classifieds section, may be “bumped” by the OP no more than once every 24 hours.

Thank you.

we keep it a hard and fast rule, any laxity in the application will lead to more and more people bumping sooner and sooner.

Instead of bumping a thread you should edit the tags that are part of your issue, this way if it hasn't been solved and the users that follow the tags you've placed on your thread should see it and could possibly help.
