My experience with php style forums has been that the communities frown upon bumping and necroposting. Rediscovering and commenting on an old thread is usually met with profanity from the forum regulars. If bumping creates a better social media experience, why is it condemned instead of commended?

Most social media has no concept of I already read this. When I read something with a bunch of comments and come back latter there isn't a good way to skip past the things I've already see to what is new (and of course go back if I don't remember the context). Because of this I don't want you to bump something old - I read it way back, and I no longer even have an idea of where I last read...

Traditional forms are linear. I’m describing something more branching, where a bump starts a new branch off a trunk, but still nested under the original post.
