What does "bump" mean
Every time someone posts to a thread, the thread gets "bumped" to the top of its given categories "list". If no one is posting to the thread (such as when there seems to be no interest in a for sale item, or if someone's waiting for an answer to a question), the thread continues to fall down the list. So, by posting to your own thread, you "bump" it back up.
