i think any form of 'pity bump' should happen at least after 30 minutes of inactivity. ive seen some right after the thread was posted, bad form imo!

pity reply of course has no time limits

is there a maximum amount of time for first replies? I'd imagine they eventually become pity bumps

first replies should be fast imo. probably within the first 5 mins of thread creation, otherwise theres no element of danger and suspense. i realize this leaves a 'dead zone' between first posting and pity bumping, this perhaps can be filled with the pity reply

as we were unable to reach a unanimous decision vis-a-vis 2 or 4 space tabs, we have decided to compromise and mandate the 3 space standard tab. please post accordingly.
