I never thought about being able to bump any thread for 30 minutes. If you had 5 threads to bump that could get annoying.
I just found it...ironic, that Skial comes out with a darn near duplicate idea/perks as Outpost soon after one of their Mods got banned off it after making an ass of himself. Kinda like a "Who cares, we can do the same thing as you" thing.
But all in all, it's a great addition to the Skial forums. Will help a lot of people trade. I just think it was done out of bitterness towards banning a Skial mod. Even if that mod dug his own grave.

This wasn't done because of Ruelel.
You do realize that we've had trading on our forums before Outpost even existed?

No, and to be honest i could not care. I just find it "ironic" that these options, which coincidentally are the same as Outpost options, which is where one of your mods got banned from, all of a sudden came into effect. Like i said, just seems like bitterness, IMHO. But if you say it isn't then i am sure it isn't. Either way, like i said it is a great addition.

You should care because you are treating Outpost like a totally original idea and that anyone that happens to have the same features is ripping them off.
Ruelel was banned a week ago. How long are we supposed to wait to improve our trading forums so it doesn't look like we are doing it as revenge? A month? A year?
Why is it even revenge to try to improve our trading forum? Are they copying us when we already had a trading forum for a year before them and they decided to add forum features to their website? Are they ripping us off when they decided to have a reputation system just like us?
Do you realize that the reason outpost was made was because of revenge against tf2tp for banning Facepunch members?
These were all features that people have asked for even before Outpost existed and they are hardly unique.
That would explain the admins.
I agree though and isn't our mission statement like "The ultimate TF2 gaming and trading group."? These changes would reflect that. Maybe that should change to TF2 and Dota
Still all seems quite "ironic" or "Bitter actions" to me. Even if you or anyone else say it isn't. But as i said 3 times now, it is good for the Skial forums and that is a good thing in end.

I've never used Outpost, and Ruelel is 1 out of 20 admins. It is ridiculous to accuse us of copying ideas that aren't even original from a newer trade site in order to get revenge. Why can't we improve our trading forums because we have one?
First bottiger copies ProTF2 and now he is copying Outpost.... When will he get his own material
I just made a cash trade, sold a guy some keys. Well, he didn't have a Skial profile and made one to give me rep. I'd like to give some rep in return, but I can't because he hasn't made any trade threads yet. At least let me select my own trade thread to leave rep for him, Bott.
i think you put way too much stock in how much bottiger cares about his admins being retarded and getting bans on other websites.
Also, we've been crying about an auto bump feature or something for moooooooooooooonths. I think people bitched about mrpeepers that last time it came up.

People need to stop copying off of the barter system. When will each of you learn to get some fresh material and trade things using your OWN system.

No one can claim ownership of bartering
Only TF2 Warehouse dares to have their own currency because they make a profit on every trade.
They could easily lose money to another g power fist incident, or any time they get traded items that get deleted by Valve because of scamming.
Because of this, no one can make a "new" (as though any trade system hasn't been already invented) system.

There's no telling how stupid people on the internet can be. And I thought about making something like warehouse before they came out but I decided not to because of problems like that.
A lot of people tell me to just make something like that and they don't know the risk involved.
