Implemented Vote: Should we switch to a "bump" default sort order in sales forums? (1 Viewer)

[Redbot]

Currently, the default sort order is "last message".

This will only apply to sales forums (Krono, Accounts, Items, Plat, Services) and the aggregation forum "EverQuest". You can always change the sort order to your liking, this only affects the "default".

This poll is a result of the community discussion here:

I think 2 reminders in 12 days is fairly gentle.

I see the new Sort By Bumped default was implemented. However there are two threads that seem to either be auto bumping to the top every 5 min or so or are sticky. The threads in Orange should be below the threads in Yellow.

Yup we had some items in the ducat shop that were bumping threads every 10 minutes. I removed the items but current owners are allowed to keep them until they expire.

Implemented - EC Tunnel Changelog

Okay thanks for the explanation. I saw them there and was about to ask about them when they disappeared. If I am correct they last 7 days?
