Maybe someone can explain something to me....
WHY is it so all-fired important or even a good thing to prevent bumping in the sales thread?
It seems like this allows someone to post a sale, then completely IGNORE it for weeks, and that person's thread is treated the exact same way as an active member who monitors and updates their thread 3 or 4 time per day!
And as it is, active threads with good names stay toward the top, so you always know where the action is. To be honest, this sounds like pointless, bureaucratic meddling, just for the sake of doing it! "Because we CAN!"
Truly, what's the rationale? Is the idea "let's punish the active involved members with good names, and reward the lazy, disengaged members who post and then come back two weeks later to see what happened?" WHO does this benefit, and HOW does it benefit them? (Remember, we are "customers" who are paying for these features!)
If someone DOESN'T maintain their sales thread and no one's interested, then it SINKS to the bottom as it SHOULD! And if they DO MAINTAIN it or it's a hot property, then it stays toward the top! What's wrong with that?
How about no more than one bump per day? Same benefit, less frivolous bumping!
Can someone explain to a little kitty??
