I saw NocNatures say this on a thread and agree with them: There should be a tab for 'Recent Comments' Slip it in next to the recent topics tab- this way, people can see when you bump a thread and so on!
Couldn't agree more! This is a suggestion that would really help older threads (coming from someone who looks at recent topics more that just going to a category, which is, unfortunate to say the least)
Especially since it would make more sense to do this instead, as recent topics would pretty much count as a recent comment!
wait this is like the best idea I've seen so far- 100% this should be a thing!

This might be nice? It would be better than being "pressured" to make a new thread every time you want to sell something-- there aren't enough players for people to even bother to check the individual forums since we're lucky to get a handful of non-selling topics a week, so a quick way to see what's been "bumped" in the last 12-24hrs would be nice...
Would people want them persistent, so the only way to get new threads on that tab is to bump them?
Or would people prefer it so that the list was blank by default and only populated threads that have been bumped by the OP specifically in the last 12-24 hours?
I could see pros and cons to both, but my gut says the second way would discourage spam better, since it would only require you to bump your own thread once or twice a day and wouldn't shuffle around, instead of encouraging sellers to compete for more limited space on a widget that's only measuring the "pulse" of how recently active a thread is.
