Bump Lists to Become Keywords

Posted on 07/24/2004 6:41:49 PM PDT by John Robinson

I'm going to convert bump lists to keywords and discontinue that form of addressing. This will only affect you if you know what a bump list is. Thank you.

Update #1 within the hour pings to bump lists will fail to register. Tick tock...

Update #2 to add an article to the bump lists--which are now keywords--use the "Click to add keyword" link that lists below the text of each article. Enter the name of the bump list without spaces.

A list of those names can be found on the old bump list register.

Update #2.5 Oh, and, for better or worse, keywords are now global across all forums. For example, yesterday the moose keyword would have a different list of articles depending on which forum you were in--utter chaos. Today, moose lists all articles across all forums.

Omelette, broken eggs, yadda yadda yadda.

Progress, can't you smell it?

Will there be a cross reference for the conversion, or just a straight mapping of list name to keyword?

Will this adversely effect the 1st Amendment?

Better rename this post: "Testing. Don't Respond".

Ah, the silly old days....

In the past, I have asked folks who know and like my nearly ten years of columns to ping the next one out, if they so chose. Does this change kill that idea? (I do not have, and never have had, a bump list of my own.)

Cordially,

John / Billybob

I'm not sure what BUMP means....exactly. I see it posted all the time but it never "bumps" anywhere. The top or anywhere else.

What an insidious conspiracy.
I like it.
*chuckle*
Good luck, have fun, and here's hoping no unforeseen weird glitches occur.

How many endangered species had to die to make this happen?

If this change doesn't feed one ghetto child, what's the use?

What did Admin Mod know and when did he know it?




Sorry, I need some sleep.

An opus for the bump lists.

May they rest in peace.

This will be the last list ever bumped. I bid you adieu.
