A BST rule about bumping. Should there be one?

[shammus]

I voted 3 days which is sort of the way I've been policing it over the past few years. I find that 3 days is kind of the average amount of time it takes for a post to hit the 2nd page so I always thought it was a good benchmark.

With bumping, there's also some exceptions. If something about the listing is changing (ie...cards being added or sold, the prices change, scans get added....etc..) then I've always given leeway to a certain extent. Although if you list 50 cards for individual sale and bump the thread every time a card gets sold, that gets annoying pretty quick!

Also, if someone asks a question and the seller answers it, that's also not a bump in my opinion because you're just responding to another board member.

So there's little bit of "grey area" when it comes to thread bumping I suppose...
