It means the original poster is "bumping" his/her post up to the top of the list. The forum is supposed to have a topic bump button, but it often doesn't show up, so posters will manually bump their topic this way.

Marketplace rules state that "bumping" is limited to once every 3 days. The exception would be if the selling price or conditions were significantly changed.

Also, you may see "to the top" or "ttt" used as an alternative to "bump".
