So, here's something missing on the wiki rules§Forums: We haven't defined any rules for bumping threads. While not much people bumps a forum thread here, it's still important. Few reasons:

One is that since sometimes people ignore some threads, like this one, so a bump might be necessary to crank the thread back on top of the subforum list (i.e. "active discussions") so people could notice it.

Two, which is the main problem, is that we don't want people to bump their threads every day, since cluttering the thread with bump messages make them look spammy.

This particular rule is normally mentioned in most forum sites, but we don't have it, and considering that people do forum edits more than mainspace, I think it's time to implement such rule.

I recommend that the thread bumps should be at most one each week, since the threads won't slide down the branch/subforum list that easily. Two weeks are too long IMO, and 3-5 days are too short.

So, should we add this rule?
