Idea: A bot that bumps your topics

This way, you don't have to bother with the hassle of bumping your topics manually!

How it works:
If your topic goes below the seventh topic, then the bot auto-bumps it. It simply posts a random phrase between ‘bump’, ‘buhmp’, ‘buuump’, ‘buuuuuuuump’, etc. This is done to prevent spam warnings or any spambot reports. There is also an engine to force the selection to be different every time to prevent spamming even more. Here's a picture of what that engine code would probably look like in Scratch (to specify how the engine would do it):
repeat until <not <(random bump) = (old random bump)>> // The old random bump is the last bump that the bot had made.
set [random v] to (item (random v) of [bump options v])
end
Anybody want to collaborate on this with me?

That seems like a really bad idea. Once a post gets old, and your bot is still bumping it daily… *shudders*

It's rarely useful to bump topics manually, let alone automatically.
