Bumping threads

If your goal is to practice with other area teams, why don't you invite those teams to bring their own balls along with their robots? That should give you more than enough to play with.

Raikon did create a whole new post. Less than a half hour later, he replied to it himself, saying only "BUMP". That shouldn't be permitted to slide by without a word of discouragement.

Could someone please explain to me the motivation behind posting a "bump" message? It seems to me that writing something to the effect of "this is urgent, I have a definite deadline" in the original post would be more effective than responding impatiently to yourself with a content-free reply. It impresses me as being the equivalent of jumping up and down in the middle of the forum shouting "Pay attention to meeee!"
