Thanks for all of the comments / questions. What I was proposing (and I don’t know if it makes good sense or if there are unintended consequences) is if the software could operate in such a way that, if topics were auto-bumped and received no further response, that the time to the next auto-bump could increase automatically. As @Remah says, we could do something about it (manually) and I agree. Was just curious if there were a programmatic solution. Most topics get plenty of action, but some stall and then go on an auto-bump cycle that results in the screen shot below. If it (for instance) doubled the time to auto-bump assuming no further activity, then it might be a nice function. Maybe?
Are you saying that you’ve never seen a topic bump multiple times, automatically, if it received no further interaction?
