What is Bump mean?
 

I always see BUMP. what is that mean?

When someone posts and there are no answers for the poster, the original poster will post another message that just says BUMP so other reefers may get an answer to him on the second go around

bump
 

ohhh that totally makes sense thanks alot

And that is because every time there is activity in a thread that thread gets "bumped" to the top of the list of threads in that section. For example, if you make a thread to sell something and no one responds, your thread will drop down the list of threads as new threads are created after yours. After a while your thread might disappear from the first or second page of listed threads in the for sale section. So, what some people will do is make a post to there thread by simply saying "bump" so that their thread gets bumped back up to the top of the list of threads and on the first page, thus making their for sale thread more visible to people :-)

kien, that is a better explanation than mine. thanks

and it stands for Bring Up My Post.:wink:

Yes, it has been suggested that 'bump' is an acronym of Bring Up My Post however this is almost certainly a backronym and the usage is entirely consistent with the verb "bump" which means "To knock to a new position". [wikipedia] :biggrin:

oh, and :bump2: :lol:

Other options are ...

ttt = To The Top. :wink:
