It means that this thread originated a long time ago but someone wanted to post to it or offer it up to be posted to again. So they *bump* it by posting too it, to make it resurface on the front page of the forum.
Generally forum ettiquette usually dick tates  that people don't go insane bumping to the point of eliminating current threads, and that they don't bump all their own threads constantly, etc. I have seen some forums that have very specific bumping guidelines. It's never been a big deal here.
