Can we get a new rule for the trading post?

I'm a member of a camera trading forum and it is setup with a specific "bump" button that allows you to bump the post every 12 hours. A new comment will only bump the post if it hasn't been promoted in 12 hours. This would entail some potentially tricky if then statements in the code, however, and may not be worth the time.

With the relatively small amount of classified activity going on here it would be easier to sift through if NO posts were promoted for any reason. Just let them fall chronological such as craigslist or ebay. Then it is fair to everybody and easier to sort through for buyers.

I don't think we have a serious issue today but if you want to lock it down I suggest you don't allow any thread bumping at all. Make it where replies to the thread are just added and the thread stays in line with the date of it's creation.

Allow a item to be relisted after one week or something to that affect.

For the record...

A new version of the forum software is coming down the pipe really soon. I'm not making any more adjustments to the forum code until I see what is included in the final version of the new stuff. There's no sense building a bunch of hacks into the existing system only to scrap it in a few months.

We'll just suffer along with what we have right now until the other changes take place.

Well, that didn't work. One more try.
