Why is there a hard bump limit on threads? What if we had the power of a bump decay with the number of reppeys it has? For example, every bump before 300 has the power of a full bump, bringing it all the way to the top of the page. At 600 it has half the power of a full bump, bringing it to the point right in the middle of where they were before the reppey and the tippity top of the page. At 900 a third, at 1200 a quarter, et cetera. That way gemmy threads wouldn’t have to die suddenly.
