Hi again folks.

I can't help but to notice that when someone mistakenly posts in this forum, the post isn't simply moved to the proper venue. Instead, there seems to be a general reply that this isn't the place and sometimes a link to the correct venue is offered. I'm curious to know why you don't simply move the post to the correct venue and be done with it?

Cheers... Rick

Let's see… someone wanders in here by mistake, you move his post, and you expect him to find it again, ever?

When there is a reply, there will be an email notification - with a link to the topic/post location.

Indeed that's my experience as well.

Most of us "folks" don't have the magic powers to move posts.

You rarely see anyone around here who can do that, so we try to help in our own little way.

Okay. I thought most everyone here was a moderator in their own forums.

Thanks for the explanation!

Happy Sunday to you... Rick

No way! If I was a Moderator everyone else would leave of their own volition. I wouldn't have to moderate anyone. Although, I am a moderator for the Imtuit Yahoo Group.
