How do I "bump" my post?

[yodelhawk]

I made a post in the middle of the night last night and wanted to give it a bump because I think that the right folks may have missed it. When I posted again, it only edited the post and did not return it to the top of the "new" list. Can somebody please advise? Thanks...YH

You don't.

What makes you think the "right folks missed it"?

Posted some pix of a couple of masks with intercom in them and was hoping that someone would be able to tell me a little about them. Got no hits, so I was trying to get it to the top of the list when the board was a little more active. Did not know I was doing anything wrong

I moved your post out of the marketplace forum (that's for selling stuff) and into the main vintage dive gear forum.

Oh, I left a mod post in the thread too, so it shows up on top.

Bumping threads is frowned on, and forbidden in classified and marketplace forums due to the amount of junk posts it produces.

TC, thanks for your help! I thought I had it in the

main vintage dive gear forum, but obviously got it wrong! I'm still trying to get a hang of the forum ​

Don't worry. About the time you begin to think you understand how things work here, they change, er improve, them. Keeps things interesting.

I think (but am not certain) that if you wait over 24 hours since your last post, your 'bump' might work. Bump things a lot and you will get yourself in trouble though. At the very least your posts will attract the kind of attention you do not want, if you are seen as blatantly hyping yourself.
