G'day.
It's time for a borderline frivolous query! What are the 'best practices' regarding thread bumping for technical support queries on the forums?
Waiting a certain number of hours or until the thread is buried a certain number of pages seems prudent. But what is the sweet-spot for getting maximum thread-exposure without appearing rude?
There's also the consideration of preventing the 'unanswered post' search from registering with one's own bump (oh bitter irony).
Does anyone have a preferred method, or is there a sticky post somewhere that offers advice on the matter?
...
As for the shady tactic of the obfuscated cross-bump... the less said about it the better.
