[DENIED] Allow autobumpers for middleman threads

Please make it an exception to the rule.

I am available most of the time to middleman sales, however I'm a very forgetful person and so I forget to bump my middleman thread most of the time.

You could potentially block post count in this section.

Don't see any down side to this.

 

You/others are offering a service & most ask for $ of some sort for this. I don't see why bumping manually would be difficult if most are asking for $ from this - no support.

While I understand you are simply trying to help, it's all in all for personal gain (vouches/possibly for OMM/make money in the long run on fees/etc). If you would like to increase the personal gain then it's not much to put a simple "b" post on a thread. Plus it helps to weed out the active MM's from the non-active MM's. If everyone had an automated bump it may even be hard to find active people.

There is no personal gain in it for me and never will be, but I see your point.

I'm on my computer most of the time lately, so I'm active to middleman nearly 12 hours per day. However, for some reason I always forget to bump my thread. I have an account for sale that I can't wait to get rid of, but I just forget to bump it lmao peepodepressed

Sounds like there are 12 hours that you would be offline for which your auto-bumper is advertising your service.

 

We could use that logic anywhere tbh i forget to bump my accounts topics too, and im always selling them. Does this mean i should be allowed to use it too?

 

No support, sorry. Feels like a personal problem, not one that warrants an auto bumper for the whole section. You could also argue that MMs who aren’t actually available have their threads bumped, causing more confusion for people looking for active/online MMs

lmao set an alarm on your phone.



Thanks for coming to my TED talk

There could be an earthquake and an alarm still wouldn't work on me, doctors say they can't find the root cause

 

Also the main reason I was saying specifically the middleman section is because it's used to help others, while other market fora are mainly used for personal gain..

Guess I should use an interval auto bumper like everyone else kek

 

I'd like to add to this suggestion - allow a maximum of 1 thread to be bumped automatically.

This could be nice!

 

No support market was toxic with autobumpers. half threads were just bumped with no one online

But for middleman threads this wouldn't be so bad, could also remove post count gain in there.

no support what so ever buy an amazon echo and set a remind with alexa to bump your thread.

 

[OsrsServicesAndSales]

No support, this would just make it harder for a customer needing a middleman, to find an active middleman through all of the inactive ones who are just auto-bumping their threads while not actually being available at the time to provide the service.

This would likely solve your issue once implemented.

Why though? You will still have the same issues where people won't be online and will be bumping their threads. There is no reason for someone to be advertising a service/product while they are unable to deliver at the time of the post going up.

There are already bump assist tools which can remind people when to bump their threads.

This wouldn't be any different from the market threads at all. MM market is still used for personal gain through vouches and eventually OMM.

Support, promotion of middlemen has nothing to do with the market or abuse or anything else, they protect the community

 

[Superfluous]

No support. Rules shouldn't change because you're disorganized. Though hopefully that mass thread bumper SM mentioned does get implemented.

 

Kanye spelled it out I think. However, I think hahanerds suggestion is a good one to support your cause.

it’s a hit or miss as it can still potentially be abused and used for some gain.. Personally I think just talking in the discord is the easiest method.
