Posting a reply, even if it's only 'bump' or ping, etc., puts the thread at the top of the forum page. The latest posts are listed in chronological order as they occur.

Don't let them fool ya, it's really a sexual term. Often performed on ones own posting to get attention. Pronunciation: 'ownu`nizum

(Teasing- sorry)

At the top of the screen, on the second line, at the right, you will see a link: "Threads | Messages"

Click on Messages, this will show, at the top, the most recent message recorded in this forum.

FReepers use this to find active threads, especially older ones. BUMP or BTTT (Back to the top) means put this message to the top of this list. In other words, "I think this thread deserves more attention".
