I'm probably in the minority, because I like things bumping when there is a new addition to the discussion thread. It's a good way to know there is another opinion being posted about Ingebord's distribution of emerald drops, how many ways the Tiara of The Nine Provinces can be reconfigured, and which tiara The Princess Royal was really wearing at that state banquet. I also liked the radio buttons which one could click to expand the list of topics in the discussion. Even if bumping is no longer active, I would love to see the radio button return to expand and collapse the discussion. It makes it easier to scroll the screen and view the different threads. We all know how long a discussion can get!
