I'm... sorry you... feel that way? I'm not gonna remove that from my guide, and a lot of those statements were just used for some cruel motivational "don't do this" moments. I know not every young person is an awful suggester, but uh... this forum has quite a lot of them.
Yup, there sure is.
It seems more like you were stereotyping preteens...
It hasn't been removed because the words are in image form.
Lol, perfect way to break a rule
But they could always remove the image.
Wrongwrongwrong.
When's the last time you read the images? There was profanity in them, but I was asked to remove that like a year ago. Like I mentioned, this forum allowed profanity at one time, so don't be surprised of any leftovers.

The first time I read this was about the time tge no profanity rule came in.

My Avatar is a Dalek, therefor your argument is... EXTERMINATED!!!
You know who can tell me something I already know? Me. All the time. I'm really good at telling me stuff I already know. I don't need help in that department. I don't know about others, but I can't imagine I'm alone here.
Also, did you forget random furniture? Tables and chairs I say are ok, but "Sinks and bathtubs and toilets and oh my!" is crossing the line.
Did you forget this?

I absolutely hate when people do this, but I don't think it has much place in this thread. Since this is all about the making of suggestions and not the overall posting guideline that encompasses the whole forum.

I'd like to ask, what are the rules on bumping? I could not seem to find it through the millions of lines of text x) Anyways, what seriously are the rules on bumping?

Do you mean bumping overall or just in suggestions?
Also everyone, I'm gonna be adding "Mojang might change their minds!" in the excuses section. I'll also be adding a "defeat" section (because there isn't enough freakishly long sections) which covers how to handle if your suggestion is a complete failure with no hope of recovery, and how not to react because of it.

I'm not sure about bumping overall, but if pertains to just suggestions you should check out the For the Critics thread. But for your convenience, I took the liberty of quoting the relevant information from FTC and posting it here in this spoiler.
Graverobbing for Dummies
First note I would like to make: There is a difference between necroing a thread and reviving/resurrecting one. The difference is in bump quality.
A personal definition for necro is a spam post like "bump" or similar "I disagree" or other non-constructive post. This is frowned upon and causes a great number of moderators to burn the zombified thread with a quick lock. The only reason you should ever post in any topic is because you have something useful to add to it. A statement of +1 or No adds nothing useful; therefore the topic gets locked (in direct opposition to the desired effect.)
While necroing is against the rules, I personally feel that objectively reviving a thread with pertinent argument and qualifying discussion is not. Simply because a thread is as old as dirt does not mean it is dead, especially if it is better written and more pertinent than the current counterparts that exist.
It is POSSIBLE to resurrect old threads, but it must be done with care and great respect to the original poster and the thread itself. I normally revive threads with "I feel that this suggestion is still a relevant discussion and deserves to be openly criticized again."
I have found the powerful blows of the mod-hammer have not fallen on my conscientious efforts to revive a valid and worthwhile thread despite age.
It is important to remember to use sound judgment on whether to revive a topic or not. If you cannot properly add information to a topic, then it may not be as acceptable as you may think.
If a thread was made in 1.3 and it's content is out of date, it's a bad idea to revive it.
If a thread was made with poor grammatical structure and is only a sentence, it is a bad idea to revive it.
Save your revivals only for those things truly deserving to be revived.
Also, Theriasis, I would also like to point out that some things that are discussed here are more relevant to critics than the suggester themselves (I like reading this thread x) ), but hey, at least they're being covered and dealt with.
What's interesting about the internet, is that sometimes you don't have to see a person face-to-face to know how they're badly lying. If you get negative feedback on a bad suggestion, don't try to spin the context around so you don't "look bad". "Oh guys I was trolling you all alongLOL!" - No you weren't. If you were a good troll, you wouldn't openly admit to that. We won't fall for that. Your escape attempt failed.
"It was a joke!" - Was it actually a joke, or were you just trying to overcome the negative posts you got? No, it wasn't a joke. Nice try. Mods will also lock your threads and give warnings if you try to use that desperate method of backing away.
"Ugh you guys are trolls/haters." - Stop. Now you're just saying things to make yourself feel better. Don't write off all negative responses as trolling. Just fix your suggestion or move on. Things like this make users get so embarrassed that they have to create alternate accounts.
"Someone in my house posted that, not me." - It's funny that only bad posters use this excuse. It's also funny that the person posting that happened to type in the exact same manner of the person making the "I didn't post that" claim.
"Uhh wait, THIS is what I was actually suggesting!" - Also known as "changing the story" or "hitting the reset button". You suggested Creeper Scorpions which everyone absolutely hated, then you tried to defend it and all of your defenses were bashed away, and now you're going "no you guys have gotten it wrong this whole time, I was suggesting normal scorpions, I only mentioned the creeper thing as a joke lolol."
That's a hard excuse to believe after you opened with "creepers need more variants" and every single type "scorpion" appears in your thread, it has "creeper" right before it. Woooow, good joke man.

Don't believe me? Look up the users blueberry12 and Fnoop. They got themselves into arguments so deep that they humiliated themselves on the greek gods level.
This was quoted from backpedaling in the guide XD. Apparently someone STILL hasn't read it after poorly attempting to defend himself.
Theriasis, you know my whole "this guide is useless" was all just a dumb ruse way back when right?
It was a dead giveaway. You made some pretty solid points and even references to guide in some bad suggestions even before you started posting in this thread.

Nah, he's not backpedaling. He actually gave me some improvements and some good BB-code fixes/alternatives that stopped breaking the guide every single time I edited it. McRiveter is legit, which would make his previous threads rule-breaking joke threads.

Yeah a little bit. I don't care what it seems like, as it long it gets the message across without breaking forum rules.

I'm pretty picky with making sure everything is spelled and said right.

I was trying to mock people that post without checking their spelling.
