Sometimes if your thread isn't going anywhere and you have a question about something that it isn't that big a deal if you bump but there are some things you need to know before doing something like this:
What I mean by a question I mean a legitimate question about something on this site like a bug or help finding something. You also have to remember that bumping a thread brings it to the top of the page subsequently pushing all the others down.
If you decide to take your chances and bump your thread make sure you aren't posting things like "bump, bump4hottopic, etc." that's the fastest way to get yourself warned or even banned. If I ever deem it necessary to bump my own thread (which is isn't often because I hardly make threads) I usually state what something in the OP say "sorry for the double post but...."
Necrobumping on the other hand is (in my eyes) a completely different story, I've only seen one case where the person didn't get banned... but a custom title was given, but don't get your hopes up if you do that because I guarantee that won't happen again.
Now lets recap here. I'm in no way, shape, or form endorsing going around and double posting to bump your threads whenever you see fit; because lets face it, it is considered spam and it is ultimately up to the moderators to take action if they think something is worth a time-out. Keep those things in mind next time you think you want to bump your thread.
