Really? This is one of the great things about the SECRant. I beg you not to take this away.
Bump threads are quality entertainment and usually justify great discussion.

You know what? You're right. shite is dumb even though I've done it. My bump last year when Auburn lost the title game was great.

Jesus christ are you guys trying to kill all the fun. Bump threads are the equivalent of a touchdown celebration.

Bumping threads will become cool again when LSU is okay again.

Pretty much.

So why the bookmark function if you can't bump threads?

I was looking forward to all the bumped threads with me telling MST they sucked. I had the sadz when I didn't see any.

Does anyone know what "old" is? Some time ago there was an issue regarding a President and what the meaning of "is" is.
Does the purpose for which the thread is bumped make any difference? There are the "nanny nanny boo boo" bumps and then bumps for threads for which further discussion is relevant because something new has happened which could add to some lively discussion.
I suppose a purpose of the rule might be to keep the boards from getting too cluttered but since about 90% of the threads on tRant are unnecessary anyway I don't know what the rule truly accomplishes. Higher quality threads? Fewer jimmies rustled?
Finally, it could be said that the substance of the thread bump is at least as equally compelling as the drivel which prompted the thread in the first place.

Realist hit the nail on the head. It's only bush league because LSU sucks dick this year.

Isn't that the whole point of a sports forum. They debated in that thread for 3 hours, let the person remind the other person he was wrong.

It really is one of the weaker things I've seen from the Admins. Bumping threads is part of what makes this site better during the season.

This has always been one of those "rules" that I've never onced seen enforced.
Go figure it coincides with one of LSU's most laughable football teams in recent memory.

Makes sense that Chicken would post it following an LSU win.

That's becsuse LSU isn't that good this year. Everyone else cares and it's funny. LSU doesn't have many threads to bump so far. So the admins are little bitches and wouldn't even let us have our ban bet, despite the other ban bets going thru for other teams
