Paid Bytes Bump (PBB) - Omniscient - Sep 25, 2019

In an effort lower LQP (Low Quality Posts) and also provide a new way to use Bytes we are introducing PBB (Paid Bytes Bump). For a Bytes fee you'll be able to bump any HF thread you wish. Use the arrow-up icon on the first post of your own thread (cannot bump threads you didn't create). When you buy a bump Stanley will make a new post in thread thus creating the bump.

The Bytes fee will depend on your group.

Vendors - 25 Bytes
Ub3r - 50 Bytes
Everyone Else - 100 Bytes

The effect of this should help us to sink some Bytes and get rid of LQP at the same time.

Enjoy this new feature. Thank you.

P.S. Please report any bugs.

Really nice addition, well played Omniscient.

This is pretty great. Thank you for the continuous new features, Omni!

That's awesome. Been wanting this for a while. Are we still allowed to bump regularly?

Interesting, I’ll be sure to try this out


RE: Paid Bytes Bump (PBB) - SIM-403479 - Sep 25, 2019

Is there a limit on how many times you can bump?

No there is not.

It seems like a great idea. I'll try this soon!
However, don't you think users with a lot of bytes can constantly bump their thread(s) and might get a chance to evade the Sticky policy and make sure their thread stays on top all the time? This would create competition, and even new LQ threads/services would be on top?

Bottom line, I appreciate this great addition and wanted to share my sheer feedback on this.

This is a solid feature and a great new addition to the bytes system.


RE: Paid Bytes Bump (PBB) - Weco - Sep 25, 2019

I thought I hinted to you not to get rid of your Bytes. A lot of features we add to HF will include their usage. As a matter of fact the next big feature coming will also be Bytes related.

I must have missed that hint! I'm going to work my way back though, as I can see their usage is going to be increased significantly.
