Welcome and congratulations on being chosen as one of
NEON BUMPERS bumpaty bumpers!!
I realize you may think you already know now to bump, but do to the large quantity of bumps we do, we have created a simple way for all our employees to bump.
This is mainly to keep track of number of bumps in a thread and to stop any confusion. OK!
So first you should know that no matter how you decide to bump, be it typing bump, using a provided banner or making your own banner, you must keep track of how many times a thread has been bumped, and how many times you've bumped it.
(Example using typed bump)
*~*BUMPITY BUMP*~*
Service provided by NEON BUMPERS.
Total bump= ( the number here tells everyone how many times this thread has been bumped in total by all employees of Neon Bumpers. It helps people keep track of were we are on orders.)
Self bump= (this number tells you, and us how many times you've bumped, by yourself. This helps you keep track of how much you have bumped so that you have the most accurate number to send us on payday! I also helps us tell if you being truthful about your bumping. Which isn?t often because we have full trust in our employees.)
We have to make sure everyone keeps track of the total thread bump number. So going back and looking at previous post made by one of the Neon Bumpers employees to get the total thread bump number so that you can continue the counter.
(Example using typed bump)
*~*BUMPITY BUMP*~*
Service provided by NEON BUMPERS.
Total bump= 156
Self bump= 40
Then yours would have to continue the total bump but you would start you own self bump. You bump would look something like this.
(Example)
*~*BUMPITY BUMP*~*(or how ever you decide to type it, or us a banner)
Service provided by NEON BUMPERS.
Total bump= 157
Self bump= 1
The next one would continue counting the total bumps and your self bumps so it would look something like this.
(Example)
*~*BUMPITY BUMP*~*(or how ever you decide to type it, or us a banner)
Service provided by NEON BUMPERS.
Total bump= 158
Self bump= 2
Your self bump counter is to be used by you to keep track of your bumps.
If you want to restart it for every different thread you bump in that?s fine or if you?re going to continue it till the end of the day then restarts it the next day. You can even start your self bump counter at the beginning of each week. As long as you keep track of your bumps we really don?t care. You don?t even really need to post a self bump counter if you are capable of keeping track of you bumps without it. I?ve just found that it makes it easier to keep track.
Now deciding if you?re just going to type bump, use on of the banners we have provided for you, or create your own bump banner is the next step. I?m going to go over each one.
TYPING THE WORD BUMP!
If you chose to just type bump, that?s great and all but try to make it stand out, be original. Add that you work for neon bumpers, and such. By using BBCode a variation of html you can make your text different colors, bold, italics, underlined, or stuck threw. The options are numerous so just play around with it until you find something you like. There are lots of BBCode explanations on the web this is a link to one I?ve seen a lot of.
