What does BUMP mean? I'm a forum dork.

I see it. I see the icon. I feel ignorant....

It means to bring the topic back up to the fore-front for discussion.
You may post a question and while waiting for a response, your thread gets pushed to the bottom of the page. So a bump might help there. Some people use it to bring back threads with pictures that have been dormant for awhile.

It's just used to keep a thread active. If someone doesn't post for a while the thread slips down lower on the list. Posters will "bump" it up the list.

Edit: oops HRC beat me by a few seconds!

A bump is when a poster "bumps" the message up the thread list for others to see more easily. It prevents the thread from getting buried with the mass volume of more recent posts.

freakin' aye. thanks guys. my ignorance about this has now been removed...only to be replaced by more stuff;)

hey, i just "bumped" this back up! wow! now that's cool...

162s are a certain style of rims, but I've never seen a pic of them!
*edit: here's one painted white tho: Pics of my E90 with Blackline Taillights and Custom painted style 162's

ZHP = Performance pkg
ZSP = Sports pkg

They correspond to the option code on the features list etc.

Abbreviations list in this post: BMW-related ABBREVIATIONS thread

*edit: woops, ZHP is performance, had it listed as Premium (which would be ZPP)

finally I get it.

She thought it meant "Lots of Love"
