The vast majority of the B/S/T users who ARE considerate of others and list/bump their threads at reasonable times are faced with the options of either being less considerate and bumping more often...or having their listings very quickly moved down the list.

As many others have noted, I am not really a fan of more rules myself, but this one really does make sense to me. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to discuss this.
i think we are really only talking about 1...maybe 2...at most 3 pages you need to scan through on an every other day basis to keep up to speed. it really is only about 3 minutes worth of time. do others really have that much of a problem with their thread being 2 pages deep?

i think most of us keep on the board....that is why it still survives right? when was the last time someone needed to be linked to a thread that is only 1 or 2 pages back?

Apparently so, as the people I presume you are defending seem to feel the need to repeatedly bump their multiple repetitive threads to the top.

When one person starts 9 different threads back to back to back and then a 10th thread to explain why he did it, that is a problem. Its rude, selfish and inconsiderate and those defending it are no better.

This is a screen shot of what I am referring to. It's in the 1950 to 1979 Section of the B/S/T.
