Is bumping an ok thing to do?
I want a mods opinion. I think it is if it's a, let's say popular topic. But not over and over again, like that sonic 2 beta hack team thread. Opinions?

Re: Is bumping an ok thing to do?
Hey AnimeCreatorArtist, a bump is generally considered to be okay if it is no longer on the first page of threads and/or if no one has replied to it in a while (such as a day or so). It also helps to take into consideration the nature of the topic: if the topic still has some relevance to today, it is okay to bump; if it's an old thread that is no longer useful, then it's not okay to bump.
Does this answer help?

Yes it does. You should tell that to the guy who made the sonic hack thing thanks
