Not a crime but it is against MSE forum rules
- Can we "bump" threads?
For those that don't know, "bumping" is where a forum user who hasn't received a reply to a question comes back and replies on the thread to "bump" the thread back to the first page of the board it's on, making it more prominent.
No, we'd rather people don't do this as it annoys others. Questions are sometimes not answered because the information is easily found elsewhere on the site and forum. If your question's not been answered try searching the MoneySavingExpert.com main site then the forum.

People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

The above action is just rude if done repeatedly rather than mistakenly.
It could even be described as trolling, which is also very much against forum rules...0 -

Except it does, of course.
Read quote:It's not a crime to bump up old threads neither.
I might reply on this thread or start another as i have some counterarguments to what you said. As Arnold Schwarzenegger didn't say....
