...WHAT?! wow, no idea what you just said.

double posting is a warning because there's an edit button.

It's a way of just wasting forum space and removing that rule could mean more spammyness. Plus, it's like a noob filter, since they enjoy double posting. I do believe, however, that you should be able to double post if the topic is over like... 3 days old and you've actually got something important to say, otherwise nobody will read it because I don't think editing brings the post up.

You can bump trade threads, theres a rule for it somewhere, It's somthing like you can bump them a total of 2 times, and only 24+ hours after the threads made and 24+ hours after the last bump.

We should by able to bump threads without having to post on it again.

A bump button? Works every X amount of hours/mins?

Chesh said he would do that, if it would'nt take forever, it can take hours to do the tiniest things.

Yup thats true, trying to do something on a forums can take up to hours or even days to script.
