    Or you can take the ability to post pictures and videos away if people want to misbehave.;)

    Are SMNC trade threads allowed to be "bumped?"

    That's a very particular sub forum where slightly different rules can and should apply. As I said, this isn't really a rule, but more of a "in actual discussion threads, please don't waste space with useless posts". :)

    In general discussion, bumping is just lazy. For a trade thread, that's a bit different.

    Also when I find myself emphatically disagreeing with a quote from a poster who turns out to be me. XD
    Can we use this as evidence that "L2S noob posts" will end up with a suspension?

    Ok I have a question. In the following post here:
    https://forums.uberent.com/threads/made-some-music-tracks-inspired-by-pa.55632/

    I often reply to update it myself which could be misconstrued of me bumping my own thread so is this still alowed? I only write something when I actually have create a new music track to let people know that I have something new to post for people that like it. So basically, I am still aloud to do this?

    A bump can be defined as "A post which does not contribute to a Thread's Topic and/or Discussion(s) and made when a thread is not active."

    So if your Adding something relevant to the Topic/Discussion(s) then it's not really a bump anymore is it? ;p

    This. It's been said, but hopefully everyone now understands. A bump is pointless , an update/addition isn't. :)

    What about using the Similar Threads plug-in for the forum? Would bring up all the threads that have a similar title. It could cut down on duplicate threads.
    Which one? plug-in?

    Also bump.;)

    Presumable the MNC / SMNC ones. I accidentally stumble there via the New Posts buttons sometimes. They confuse and scare me.

    Bad phrasing on my part. I want to know which plug-in is he talking about?

    whoah whoah... I suggested you bring back the one topic you had started earlier and that we have a meaningful conversation there... I never suggested you bump every topic with nuke in the title.
