It's just a way to give the thread a "bump" (so to speak) to bring it back to the top page.

For ride announcements, it serves as a reminder; for others, to get more attention on a subject; for some, they just like to bump things

usually in the marketplace forum where you're trying to sell something and there's a lot of activity in that forum and you want it to be seen on the First Page since you post got bumped to the 2nd page due to the sheer volume of posting you go and "bump" it to get it back onto the first page again...cuz typically people dont go beyond the 1st page to read posts.

Hi friend

Bump simply means bounce or you can say that go on the top.

The Bump was a popular mating dance in the 70's but was fought against by the "Forces for Good in the Community". It was finally discovered that doing the Bump lead to an increase in the amount of pregnancies in the young population... and a spate of dislocated buttocks in the older generation. The US government finally took it out of circulation in the 90's ... although I understand there is a hidden sect in So OC that meets secretly and Bumps the night away.... need any more info?
