Can we "bump" a post? If so, how many times? Thanks.

Well the rules say
6. No Spam. Spamming is posting the same thing several times. "Bumping" (posting to move a thread up on the forum list) and cross-posting (posting the same thread in several forums) are examples of spam.


However,the only acceptable time you may bump is in the emergency section. And only if you let a reasonable time elapse from the time you post your real emergency, like 30 minutes to an hour.

Out right bumping is generally prohibited. "Bumping" can be permitted if it is adding important and necessary information to a thread i.e. Adding Photos, details, updates, etc.

Actually, adding Photos, details, updates, etc should be added to the first post in the thread.

I usually don't

Just to clarify.... If the thread is about your family, a chicken story, an emergency, etc., adding new photos or updates in a new post is okay and won't get you into trouble. It helps readers of an especially-long thread if you at least link to new update posts in the original post to help newcomers to your thread follow the story, so we do recommend adding to the original post when possible.

In the Buy-Sell-Trade area, you can't add any additional information or answers to questions anywhere but in the original post. (Read the Buy-Sell-Trade area guidelines for further information about this).

You are absolutely right, CL. Thank you for the clarification.

I had been going through BST reports when I saw this question!

How do you include the "BYC member wrote" box in your replies.

I LOVE this site and my husband and I fondly refer to it as "chicken chat" - When I get home he asks "so what did you learn today on chicken chat" I go on to explain, OMG so much - how to keep the chicken cool - what to do about our roo that is limping and I go on and on - Thank you so much.....
