Bump not working.

So far as I know there is no rule against keeping a thread going via image posting, but the Talespin thread in /Toon is about to die because none of the most recent image posts nor text messages have succeeded in bumping the thread back to life.  This is the only thread I've observed this to be happening in and I'd like to know if this is a bug or whether something occurred that made it a target for non-renewal.

Either it's reached its posting limit or you left the Bump checkbox unchecked.

...or it has received so many pointless bumps that the mods have marked it unbumpable. (Is unbumpable even a word? Ah well.)

There's a posting limit?  The image count was approaching 200 for the thread so I guess that would be the reason, but I haven't seen any rules indicating such a limit.  Can someone clarify this for future reference?

Naw, definitely wasn't pointless text posts.  I could have understood that.

Yes, the post limit is 200.  This is double what it used to be.

Well that's worth knowing then, thank you.  Is it 200 posts altogether or 200 images?

200 posts.
Every bump draws the thread closer to the grave, which is why it should only be done if the thread is on the last page. Some users seem to think that bumping anything as soon as it gets to the second page is a "good" idea. :l
