Thanks for the explanation.
What about Bump -- does that mean the same thing?

I guess with this system, a person could just post /// for the purpose of bumping it without anyone (except maybe the mods) knowing.
Anyway, thanks for the help.  |

It just means the post zooms to the top. Useful for lost pets.

From TOTV Site Guidelines:
Bumping of Threads:
The practice of making a post with the intent of bringing it back to the first page is referred to as "Bumping" of posts and this practice is not allowed on TOTV. ONLY in the classified section is this allowed one (1) time during the posting duration or with a price change.
