1. See subject.
2. Is there a FAQ somewhere for this sort of question?

bump means "I'm still looking for an answer but since my topic has moved so far down I'm afraid nobody will see it and give me my answer"

"Therefore, I *BUMP* my thread back to the top so people can see it"

I didn't even have to read your post to know that's what you'd say, you [censored] cliche.

I always took it to mean you're just replying to a message to move it to the top of the thread so that others will see it and give it some action.

Obligatory bump

Any idea on the over/under for how many times this thread will get bumped? 40? 50?
