Not sure, I can ask GM what are the one you want to bump?

Incidentally, I presume that the Big Panda Game is exempt from these rules? (otherwise I'm banned)

thanks for reminding me. I will go get exception from CMs for the game(I think we may go over 50 pages).

No, that's on Storm8.

I never said I wanted to break the rules, anyway. I wanted to make sure I wasn't!

And the posters in between posts rule. But you can just whizz around with your fancy Moderator panel and fix anything anyway.

What does bumping threads mean

Bump (Internet)

To bump a thread on an internet forum is to post a reply to it purely in order to raise the thread's profile. This will typically return it to the top of the list of active threads. It has been suggested that "bump" is an acronym of "bring up my post"; [1]

however, this is almost certainly a backronym and the usage is entirely consistent with the verb "bump" which means "to knock to a new position".

Perfect

I suggest that when re posting a game that has been locked due to the thread limit, then if a new person restarts the game then they should cite the original creator of that game.
