First of all i've read previous threads in this section and i realize this feature is the way it is.

The point is, currently there's my thread in the garage sales and i'm selling a pet. And when people post in my thread at a low traffic time of the day, I don't get to BUMP it at a desired time, which is mainly at a high traffic time.

And today someone posted in my thread at 02:59 AM, which i'm sure there are less people. What i'm saying is, when someone does that, my thread gets buried pages behind and i can't bump it for the whole day

You can check the thread out, the link's on my signature

They aren't supposed to do that (post meaninglessly in the name of "free bumping"). You can report it in the future.

That will solve a problem for a day, and besides what happens when someone posted a valid question but at a very very wrong time? Competitors will try all sorts of ways to ruin people's thread, not that I'm doing any business at the moment. Not to be demanding but I think you should look into this issue

Just lock the topic on the period of time where you don't want ur topic to be bump then

I raised this question some time ago.
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=357263&hl=

You can then answer the question at a very very right time of your choice (which bumps the topic up).

This helps, but, when it's locked, some people might end up with an idea that it has been sold...

Yes, this is the right way to bump you're topic, but make sure that u don't just simply say something meaningless to answer the question or just by typing something that is not related to the question or you might end up with getting a warning. [I've experienced this before ]

we are looking into this and will update as soon as we decide on the best possible solution for this issue.

That's what happened to me

Great to hear that. At least something is being done now

and there are a few people who opens several threads. one thread sell one things. 20 items den 20 threads = 1 page already. is there no limit on how many an user can open a thread in garage sales?

Yea i do notice about that too..

Similar items are to be grouped together in a single thread
If u see anyone doing that with the same kinda items, pls report it

so means if a person is selling 3 procs, 2 tables, 1 car rim & 3 bags, means this person can open 4 threads?

can, because 4 are different types and have different subforums, so it won't disrupt the whole page..

Yupp
As above replied, as long as they're distinct different categories of items separate threads would be allowed

but what if they post it all under Garage Sales and not under its respective subforums?

No big deal, just wait for someone to report it so that a moderator can move it into the right place.

How about bulk orders section? i seen vCool and ngbh creates a lot of thread and bumping them at once

I got a problem with BUMP too.It seems that when i press BUMP..my post wont go up.My thread is still 2 page behind

Which thread are you referring to?

Ohh..sorry for the incomplete info..

My Thread @ garage sales under the graphic cards & monitors

Here's the link

Thanks ya'll

Dear mods,
After looking at this topic, why don't we have a bump every 12 hour instead? Since some people intend to hijack other's business, there is no way to hijack it twice since it is at a different time (AM/PM).

My 2 cents worth. Cheers!
