if someone were to bump my topic - not me - after that week, as it says in the rules, will be closed
doesn't make sense to me
i get it with age-old topics being bumped but 1 week is not a long time. I still use my topics from last summer
If the thread holds relevance, I don't see an issue with it being bumped if the communication is still on going. I know you have a thread sharing recipes, since there is still relevance regarding the original topic of the thread, it should be fine to keep open. We'll review the threads before closing and if you disagree with a thread closure regarding this rule, you can always send a message.
I'm sorry but aren't the rule very misleading then? If the rule says "A good rule of thumb is to not bump any thread more than a week old.
