True, it's against the rules, but moderators only work on reports - so if no one reports his old bumps, nothing will happen. It is a shame and incomprehensible that the members of the forum who have been there for years have not found 5 minutes to read the rules - although this also requires a certain degree of intelligence (in the sense that forum rules need to be found).
