Hi, I have a question. So I randomly got a warning about bumping a thread? What does this mean? And how I can I not do this for the next time, and what are these warning points? And do I get banned or something?

Essentially bumping a thread is replying to a thread that has been inactive for an extended period of time. There should be a message above the thread's contents that detail the process of "bumping" a thread.

Bumping is something in forums, where a person responds to an old thread. The best way to make sure this doesn't happen again is that you look at the last post date of a thread. Then, use your intuition to decide whether your post is relevant enough to bump the thread.

Hope this helps!

Thanks, guys for the FYI guys, I had no idea about this "bumping" system. Thanks for telling me, so the next time I won't get banned by accident! :p

While you're at it at signature is way too tall, if you want to keep all of it then stick some of it in spoiler tags

Right...

You probably need to look into the "Help" section at the very bottow of this page.
That page contains all useful BB codes (including the one you need to create and use a spoiler), and the Terms and Rules.
Rules are pretty important here. You already broke one, but don't worry, it's not too bad. Just follow them next time (and edit your post, don't post again if it is not an important update).
