why does everyone say BUMP?

For newcomers to ask questions to the other users... this section will usually answer most questions... requesting resources (naq/UUs/ATs) is not to be done here...

BUMP is an old acronym for 'Bring Up My Post'
Thus you 'bump' a thread to put it at the top of the page.

This is especially useful for recruitment threads; where your not holding a conversation, but you still need to insure maximum exposure by keeping it near the top.
