    I think the better solution is a subscribe option. People do it so they can go back and read the thread later.

    Only by changing the message boards on MFP. The only way to get a topic in your My Topics is either to reply or bump. If you want it to say there, if you post a lot you need to bump as well. Not to mention when things are busy a very good post could disappear and not be seen when it should be, hence the bump.

    Frankly, the message board software here is very weak. A subscribe function with options for notifications when new posts are made would get rid of bump posts. Till then, people, including me, will bump.

    ^ This. Bumps can be very helpful in reviving some great topics. Of course they don't add anything to the topic but they are still useful.

    Bumpity bump!

    Can we ban people who want things banned? This isn't a police state.

    Oh, can we also ban the forums banners? Do I look like a need freakin' Acai Berry? Sheesh...
