Bump button which you are only aloud to use once per your own topic

No, no, a thousand times no. Threads already sink or float based on posts. A bump button would just end up with every new (crappy) post on the front page, and ALL good threads on the second, completely missed forever.

Basically what Zag said. People make such pointless and dumb topics. It's useless to bump them.

No. Sometimes you just have to swallow your pride and realize that your thread is sinking because no one cares about the topic of your thread.

but what are you going to do if you have a topic that no one can reply but it is the most read topic in the forums?

1. That means its locked and you can't do anything about it. You shouldnt be able to do anything about it.

2. You have no way of knowing how many people read a thread.

That doesn't even make sense. If people can read it, they can reply to it, unless like twink said it's locked.

Giving people soapboxes to stand here would just force everyone to stand on one. And everybody would be screaming their lungs out trying to get themselves heard.

Taxes do nothing to affect the share of wealth, since taxes are only applied to income.

So that's not even a part of the conversation at all, so it's pointless talking about it....

"for a "best" moral to exist, there must exist the "best" moral base. If the base of morality varies from location to location, culture to culture...then there can't be an absolute moral..

i cannot think of a single benefit of adding such a feature. this idea would harm the forums, not make them better.

So you think being able to keep a thread at the top of the page that has absolutely nothing new added to it is a good idea?

Hardly. The forums would be useless as all we would see would be the threads created by the people who bump their threads the most, not the ones the community keeps on page one because they find them interesting.

Again; just because you find the topic of your thread interesting, doesnt mean anyone else does.

This has been discussed before. In my eyes, this thread should be locked.

Mourne not your comrades who must dwell / too strong to strive -
Within each steel-bound coffin of a cell, / Buried alive;
But rather mourne the apathetic throng / The cowed, and the meek -
Who see the world’s great anguish and its wrong / And dare not speak.

If you see those pointless replies, just report them. Thread creators are allowed to reply to their own topic, but it should actually have something new in the post.

As for the bump button... no. A loud, resounding, no.

Bungie should not make a bump button.
The problem with your arguement is that I see no good reason for the button to exist in the first place.
This is a forum not a game, the only discussions that should be on the first page are the ones being disscussed.
I see a huge potential abuse for your idea, but bumping is bad, no exceptions.

Alright, chaoticag, or whatever your name is, I think we all get it by this point. The OP asked an honest question, and a lot of us already gave our honest say. I think that's enough.

No bump button, thank you =]
