What does it mean when someone posts "bump"?

[General Mod 2]

it is a way to make the thread in question go to the top of the forum

To bump a thread on an Internet forum is to post a reply to it purely in order to raise the thread's profile. This will typically return it to the top of the list of active threads. BUMP is sometimes used as a backronym for "Bring Up My Post/Post count" or as a recursive acronym "Bump Up My Post".
