I don't think they bump the technical threads. It sounds like @go_a_way1 reads the forum like I do. I go to "New Posts" and then read through the threads I'm interested in. If you do that, you see all the threads that have been bumped by vendors.

I see the same thing. Sometimes I don't mind it. But some of the vendors have horrible websites..... also by looking through new posts for the venders I see new deals come into play.

Also in General threads having "Hi we're *insert a vender*" thread, I'll keep it for a day and move it to "Announcement/giveaway* section.



What kind of ad?
Vendor threads that they bump every day. It only bothers me in the new posts area cuz they bump them all at the same time ahha.

Ah~ gotcha. They can only have 9 commercial threads, so they try to keep it update much as they can. Sometimes it's annoying, but it used to be more annoying.

What would also help (and I've suggested this before) is if they are going to bump it, if they would delete the last bump first. That way you don't end up with a thread of 30 pages that has 29 pages of bumps and 1 page of useful information from the vendor and their customers.


Sometimes when I see one show up it piques my interest, until I see that, then I don't even bother to read the OP.
