From personal experience (in the Market section, anyway), you can only bump a topic once, then the 'Bump this topic' link disappears. I'm not sure if/when it reappears, but the common method used in this situation is to delete your last post (if that is also the last post in the topic) and repost.
If your previous comment contained something relevant to the time it was posted (such as a reply to another post), a double post won't (or shouldn't) bother anyone. Otherwise, just copy (or retype), delete and repost.

Generally, you can bump *your own thread* and only your own thread, once every 24 hours.
In some cases, that is either changed manually, or changes of its own with the rest of the forum. :) Not too sure, an admin (recommend deni or Bazsy for this kind of issue) should be able to answer your question. :-D

You can only bump a post once, then have to make a new post. I know from my time in the market. Feel free to make as many bump posts as you want in succession. While it's preferred to delete your last bump post first, it's not mandatory. When it gets crowded, just ask a mod to declutter it.

One important thing, don't bump your thread like that every 5 minutes. It's one thing to do it once every couple days or so, but if you start to abuse it... Well, you wont like me when I'm angry. :-D

Thats it. You can only bump once at least 10 minutes after the last post. After that you have to wait for the next post or repost. We can only change the "10 minutes" without a phpbb mod.
