So...this is more of a forum improvement idea than an actual gameplay one (so not really sure what subcategory it should go under) It may not be well thought out, but just hear me out, so people can see it even if it does get rejected.

As commented: PLEASE give a reason for NO SUPPORT. I cannot change anything if no one tells me WHY it's not a good idea, people.

I propose a wait time in forums. It covers a broad spectrum, I know, but let me explain it.

Bumping Threads:

A 1-2 hours BETWEEN bumps on a topic by the SAME PERSON. Meaning one individual can only bump a specific topic once every 1-2 hours via the 'Bump Thread' option.

Posting Threads:

Same as with bumping. A 1-2 hour limit BETWEEN posting new threads. I've seen individual people posting thread after thread of sales, RP's, auctions, suggestions, buying things, game suggestions, all one after the other and I really think there should be a limit on the amount you can post. 1-2 hour waits for 'normal threads' (RP/sales/auctions/etc.) and maybe 1-2 DAYS between posting game suggestion threads?


These just make sense to implement to me because it would give more peoples' threads a chance to be seen instead of constantly getting them drowned by continuous bumping or posting.

As I said, not very well thought out since I just typed it up shortly, and it may seem kinda scatterbrained, but what do you guys think? Any suggestions? Please be civil with comments as well, and PM me with anything you think should be added. Thanks for reading about my little idea.


Suggested by (#57298) : Maybe a limit to the amount of posts/bumps per rollover? Maybe 2 posts in sales, 3 for rps and 10 bumps for each post?

Suggested: shorter wait times between bumps/posts

Suggested by (#12714): Limit on posts per board, but not on bumps.
