Bumping initiative.. is this possible?

[Make Money?]

OK bumping on my forums classifieds section is un popular...

Would a hack be possible to make it so that the original thread creator could only post in response to a new post on their own thread..?

Like this

Original thread post...
(prevented from bumping)
A question appears from someone else)
(can NOW respond)
(prevented from bumping)
ANOTHER question appears
(can NOW respond)

etc etc....

Etc etc

Thanks....

You could use the same hack we use here that merges posts if they are bumping.

Thanks...Marco
