30 days: 12901 super bump-power out of 13492 total bump-power
365 days: 220802 super bump-power out of 232874 total bump-power

Thanks for the correction. Now it's 95.62% and 94.82% Super bumps, which is more in line with my expectations. It also shows that bumps from posting are very small compared to bumps from clicking the bump button.

In the past 30 days, there have been 397 super-bumps from 57 distinct users contributing 11355 bump-power. Over the same period, the total bump-power from both mini-bumps and super-bumps was 88127.

That's 12.88% Super bumps.

In the past 365 days, there have been 8850 super-bumps from 308 distinct users contributing 222971 bump-power. Over the same period, the total bump-power from both mini-bumps and super-bumps was 1041245.

That's 22.41% Super bumps.

Thanks for sharing statistics. The results surprised me, I would have expected the Super bumps to contribute more than the Mini bumps.

After reading your post, I realized that the stats I gave were highly misleading because mini-bumps occur (and super-bumps are possible by playing with URLs) across the entire forum, but they only have practical effect on certain boards, and the stats I gave previously were global. Restricting it to only the boards where modified-bump-ordering is default, it's:
30 days: 12901 super bump-power out of 13492 total bump-power
365 days: 220802 super bump-power out of 232874 total bump-power

Can you share some statistics on how often the Super bumps are used?

I don't particularly object to making the approximate bump scores or bump powers public, but I didn't do this yet.

Bumping (pun intended) with a request:

The same should apply to the whole Marketplace board.

I'm not sure if there's been a discussion about this before, but whether it can be a disabled bump for locked topics? If someone locks topic if it has fulfilled its purpose, they no need to stay up anymore. Also, this is used a lot when user offering something and lock topic avoiding any further discussion of his service/announcement...
I don't think they deserve to be near to the top.

Read the post below.
actmyname suggested applying "negative bump" to locked threads.

What if we applied a "negative bump" to all locked threads in the Altcoin boards? If a thread is locked, then there it must have fizzled out of relevance and thereby requires no further discussion. Why else would you lock it, after all? (Self-moderated threads can be used for clearing spam)

I dont see it anymore Huh

Are you looking on the correct boards? Have you bumped the thread within the last 24 hours?

The bump link will disappear for 24 hours on that specific thread after you click it, and obviously it's only visible on the 4 boards that have this feature. Plus what LoyceV said.

No, it's still there.

Quote from: theymos on September 10, 2019, 09:17:29 PM

The exact contribution is b*(1-0.15*^s/_b), where b is your base power and s is the total you've contributed to bump scores via super bumps over the last 30 days.

And:

You won't be allowed to superbump if you would contribute less than 0.001 bump score.

Thinking about an issue here. There are new posts coming in all the time into altcoin announcements that are virus / malware. With the default sort as of now they get buried for the most part. Then can get reported and removed with little exposure. (I hope). However, if I go in and post in big red letters. Don't download it's malware the topic gets bumped way up.

So, do I setup an alt account to do it or not post in the thread or???

Just food for thought.

If a thread is buried under many pages of threads, how much traffic do you think it would get in the span of a few hours?

You can give it a negative rating to warn others. You should also be including evidence of malware such as a malwarbytes report if you aren’t already.

I'd go for reporting in the malware report thread; and then report the post adding a link to your post in the thread while posting nothing to avoid getting it bumped

That is what I do report & post.
But, looking here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.54529552 I reported and posted close to 3 hours ago, The OP of the malware thread has it moderated so he keeps removing the DON'T DOWNLOAD MALWARE posts that people make.

I just do not want to keep bumping these threads when I post not to download.
Will probably just create an alt that has no bumping power and do it that way.

It would appear almost nobody has caught on to the new bump feature, or else their bumps are not very powerful.

The new system catering for a "bump" seems to have badly affected the sock-puppets and paid shills business.

Six days later my one bump has put SexCoin in poll position for the last ten or twelve hours:

It would appear almost nobody has caught on to the new bump feature, or else their bumps are not very powerful. I bumped all of the following non-bolded threads within the span of about half an hour. Commenting on them secures their position on the top.

Eventually people will catch on, as I think market forces will dictate that people learn the system to continue promoting their projects. But until then, good. Let people be confused and have to learn the new system. Really the ANN should be listed on a project website or other social media, and then people find it that way.

I've been following the progress of ANNs that hired Vitor Services to bump their threads. Some have stopped participating but some are still paying these schmucks to leave pointless comments in their threads, probably unaware that they aren't doing jack except for cluttering their thread with spam.

Yes anything Vitor Services related remains in the doldrums of the listing pages where not many people watching them. They only seem to appear in the first page of the listings when a genuine user posts exposing them as a scam.

I am fairly sure those projects are aware of the fact those spam posts they paid for are doing nothing except cluttering but they are still increasing post count and thread pages thus giving the impression there is some activity for those that are gullible enough to believe it.

I didn't bump for nearly two weeks and nearly 24 hours later, [SXC][NSFW] Sexcoin is still sitting in pole position.

I was thinking of creating and alt myself just to tell all the morons who are still bumping the topics about the changes.

The thought crossed my mind but that sounds kinda CH-level-shady if I create an alt just to troll some shitcoin threads...

Quote from: stompix on October 07, 2019, 08:08:28 AM

Maybe an option in the user panel with "I don't want my posts to bump topics" that can be disabled at will?

I'd prefer a checkbox next to the "Post" button, checked by default, and if you uncheck it - no bump for that one post. I would forget to change the global option and would end up messing something up.
