These are likely relevant rules #13 and #32 from Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules, guidelines, FAQ

13. Bumps, "updates" are limited to once per 24 hours per thread. Bumping multiple threads at the same time is allowed if it's not annoying. [2][e]

32. Posting multiple posts in a row (excluding bumps and reserved posts by the thread starter) is not allowed.

13. According to a personal message from the head admin, theymos:
The strong guideline is 1 bump per 24 hours per thread. Additionally, bumps should not be annoying, which needs to be determined subjectively. If a user bumps 10 threads every day, that's annoying. If a user bumps 3 threads at the same time for some good reason, then this may not be annoying.

I understand those rules that you have to wait for at least 24h before you can bump a thread (where bumping might be just a post with "bump" in it as the last reply and it would be allowed as a consecutive post after one of your own. Similarly I see an "update" post as a new reply to the thread with new content or reply to a previous other user's post allowed after 24h even if it is a consecutive post of your own.

Rule #32 alone would be pretty strict as it imposes no time delay at all. As you can always edit your own posts, you can always add additional replies to other user's posts. Technically there's no need to post replies in consecutive own posts, it's just ignorance or lazyness or inability to use the forum properly.


Anyway, when you reply or edit your last post in a thread you always have the option to insert quotes from the last about twenty recent posts of the thread, see Topic Summary below edit box and Insert Quote links.

You're free to interpret the forum rules yourself...
