What is this "bump" nonsense?

I've noticed a few replies to message boards posts that just say "bump". What is this all about?

    I know this is old, but I was just wondering the same thing. How is that done?

    Isn't that kind of rude?
    I mean, by bumping one thread, I am forcing another thread out of the list.

    It's to show on your profile's feed so that you can reference it later. I dont' consider it "rude" since sometimes you don't get a chance to read all the way through a thread but don't have the time and so this way you can go to your profile, see what threads you responded to, and then read through it. Plus, this way you will more likely have more responses in the thread by the time you get to read through it.
