For those of you that don't know “bump” is something people put in the comments of their forum post to Bump Up My Post to the front page again.
It has a limit of 24 hours before you can do it again… so my question…

Do you have to wait 24 hours on every post as a whole or separate?
Meaning, i post Post A and it goes off the front page, so i comment bump.
i have another post called Post B, that's no longer on the front page.
do i have to wait 24 hours before bumping Post B?
Or can i bump it and then wait 24 hours before doing it again?

ya can bump again

It's 24 hours before you can bump the same topic. You can bump two different topics within 24 hours of eachother.

At the moment you can bump topics with no posts within the last day or that are not on the front page.

ok thx! i'll leave this open for a little while, then i'll close it.

Pretty sure the 24 hour wait used to be an “encouraged suggestion” by the community and some ST members, unsure if it is a proper rule now.

The wiki says: “Bumping should generally be limited to once every 24 hours, or once the topic is no longer on the first page of the forum; however, it is good Scratch Etiquette to wait at least a couple of days before a bump.”

So no, there isn't currently an exact rule of how often you can bump, but you're encouraged to wait at least 24 hours between bumps.

There is no time limit, it is simply if it falls off the first page.
