having toruble

i'm curious as to how exactly the amount of bumps you're alotted's number increases ? From what i had been explained previously was every day that you don't bump your ads you gain a possible bump.

currently on my quota ,im maxed out on ,my log shows :

Lets say i was at quota max 30 with that first bump ,which i'm not sure it was, but can someone explain how i'm maxed in quota again ?
how come i'm not getting more available bumps ?
Any help would be appreciated ,
BTW i've checked it from 3 different computers on 3 different connections. So it's not cookies and yes my cache is cleared. Also i'm still having issues everytime i sign in , it show's im not signed in or won't let me delete messages from multiple computers.

You get a certain number of bumps per 30 day time period. The number of bumps you have depends on your membership level. So, if you are allowed 30 bumps in 30 days, and you bump 3 ads per day, you would use up your bumps in 10 days. You wouldn't get more available bumps until 30 days from the day you bumped the first ad. Hope that helps...

Perhaps you are overlooking the fact that February only had 28 days.

so if im at 30 with the bump on the 26th , i did'nt bump anything on the 27th so that's 1 , didn't bump anything on the 28th , that's 2 bumped on the first , so no adding to that day so is STILL HAVE 2 didn't bump anything until the 6th so that means i should have 1 bump for the 2nd ,2 for the third ,3 for the 4th, 4 for the fifth , seeing as those are days i did not bump my ads ,with a total of 6 because of the two i didn't use ,and lets just say for timezone differential there's only 4 bumps (just to play it safe) the two i used on the 6th should still put me at 2 (actually 4) ? does that make sense or no ?

thanks Rich i aware of the amount of days in February . I know my math isn't the best but i'm fairly sure the math is correct unless i'm not understanding how the format for the counter works in which case could you explain that , Thanks again Rich .

Not quite....if you were at 30 on the 26th, you won't get another available bump until its been more than 30 days from the oldest bump. It works like this: if I have 30 bumps available as of March 1, and I use 3 per day every day until I run out, I will be out on March 10 (3x10=30). I won't have more until March 30 (30 days from the oldest bump). Does that help? I'm terrible at explaining stuff....

I just got up, and your last post made my head hurt.
It's a rolling number, and (after you hit your max) WHEN bumps get "credited" depends on when they were last used. The last several days worth of bumps only tell a small part of the story...it's the last 30 days worth of use that dictates what you have available, and when you get more available.

AHHH I see !! thanks !! sorry about that explanation

Firestorm , you're not bad at explaining i'm just a bit slow today , long night .

Say i were to purchase another $30 account would that add 30 more available bumps to my monthly quota max ?

You can't have more than one account, but you could upgrade your account.

Correct..and, while the upgrade is a fair jump, you get more bang for your buck. Whether it is worth the $$ is entirely dependent on the value you place on it.

I know i had previously seen somewhere the benefits from different endowment levels are listed , but i can't seem to find it ?
Thanks
