No, if your thread is at the bottom of a page, and has not been answered, and you want to bring attention to it, you bump it, and it goes to the top of the list, and becomes bold, therefore bringing attention to it - doesnt quite work like that nate. You could type any word in the box, and reply, and it would go to the top, the word "bump" doesnt actually do anything, it's just a known forum word..
