It's useless/spammy and if you have to post more than once in a row to "bump", people obviously aren't interested.
Edit instead, or bribe people into posting.
You want to see double posting?
You got it.
This is an example of double posting.
Why is it bad? Because it looks messy when you see two consecutive posts from the same poster. The mods will get mad and have to delete one and edit the other with the message.
[edit-- Don't double post, protoz!
(SPOILER)I thought about doing an example like this, but I wimped out-rubah]
Apparently, I have been declared banished.

[edit-This used to have an example of a double post, but I edited the previous post to properly reflect forum policy!
Real time examples ftw! -rubah]

It's bad because people might use it to bump a thread of theirs that they didn't want to sink. Then they bump it again when it sinks again. Then they do it again. And again. And again.
Alternatively, it has the potential to end up being one person having a conversation with themselves in a single thread, which is dumb.
It's basically just bad netiquette, tis all.
Unless your name is Sean Robinson, that is.
Double posting is BAD, m'kay?

Oh. Okay. BTW, I am not new incase you're wondering.I've been here since June. I just saw people insulting someone because they double posted and I wandered what it was and why it was bad. Thanx guys!
When I was a younger, my mom used to tell me that drugs, alcohole and doubleposting are bad.
Psh, June is new xD
I only just recently started to feel I *wasn't* new:O and most days I get stern reminders that I am indeed still new.
Newbie fluke CK my arse.
When you post 2 times in a row...
Giving an example is not an excuse to double-post.

This had already been explained, Crash. There was no need for that, it was just flagrant spam and disregard for the rules. You compete <img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif">. I hope they ban you dead.
