Re: Confused.........about moving posts
it's very silly, there are so many posts that "should be" moved and they don't and then there are some posts that get moved and you are left

But often, if someone says in the thread that it should go on another board, that comment gets ignored, or responded to with "I put it on FHF for a reason" or "I put it here so it gets more traffic", so it's not as easy as that.
Then it gets ignored. To each her own. Who cares????? Leave it where I wanted it to begin with and if I don't take your advice that's my problem.

Re: Confused.........about moving posts
I report posts when I see them on the wrong board....it doesn't take that much time.
I also keep in mind that this is a message board full of strangers. If no one is around to answer my question, or if I don't get responses....I go to real-life people.

Re: Confused.........about moving posts
I don't get why this upsets people. I've had posts moved, I've reported posts in the wrong spot (which involves a click for those people that are think it's so time-consuming), I've x-posted to other boards.The moderators of this site sometimes pay attention & sometimes don't. So one post may slip through, another may not.
One thing I haven't done is gotten upset that my post was moved or thought it was personal. If anything, I thought "d@mn, wtf is wrong with me. It definitely belonged on that board."
Put the post on the right board.
Don't get offended when your posts are moved - even if they move it incorrectly based on the title.
Xpost to another board where there is more traffic, if you aren't getting the responses.

EVeRY topic on here has been beaten to death. Veterans need to accept that and either let it go, or move on. iIf you've seen it all, done it all, then maybe you ( universal you) need a change. Like a new message board to haunt and pick at.

Exactly, and I think that is why people feel this "reporting" business is so arbitrary.

Yep it takes 3 clicks to report a post.
In the time it took for me to type this response I could have reported a half dozen.

But who are you to determine my post is in the "wrong spot"?? I posted in a certain place because that's where i wanted to answers to come from. That's my decision. I posted about a therapist which moved to health, but it really needed to be in fhf, so I then had to xpost back to fhf where I got more answers. Got none on health. So why does everyone think it's up to them to determine where things should be posted. I am not a stupid person, I know there are other boards, and if feel my post would be better served on those boards, then I think I can make that decision independently.

TPTB decide. They are the ONLY ones who decide what gets moved. I can report every single post, but it means absolutely nothing. TPTB see the report, and they look at that post. If the people who own and run the site decide that yes, it should be moved, than the people who own this site, and make money off of where posts go, are the ones to move it. No user decides what goes where, any more than you decide that you want a post in an "incorrect" spot. It's only the OWNERS of LIF that decide. Not you, not me, not any of us.

ITA. I've had posts moved plenty of times. If I think it should be somewhere else, I do an X-post. Most of the time, I agree with them. I never get upset. It's a free forum. I have better things to do than be upset because I think my post should be somewhere else. I also think I should be able to drive 65mph, but if the police disagree with me, I'm not going to get upset about it if I get caught. The rules are the rules. LIF is pretty generous with allowing X-posts which never get moved, so there's always a way to have things on FHF as well as the "appropriate" board.

who are you?! i kinda think I LIKE you!  maybe love is a more appropriate word!
well now i have to wonder, if the OP's post about seeking a therapist was moved to "health" then why wouldn't the oodles of posts seeking a therapist on the relationship board get moved to health as well... or why would it be determined that her post seeking a therapist should be side by side with "hey i have an ingrown toenail"? why wouldn't it get moved to the relationship board with all the others? i agree, there sometimes seems to be no rhyme or reason to any of it - but it is what it is, i guess. i do find it a little funny though, how many people are defending how easy it is to "report" a post... maybe it's just me, but i still think reporting a post is kind of tattle-tale-esque. it's one thing if a post is spammy or completely inappropriate... but to tattle and say "such and such is on the wrong board" kind of seems  to me. i'd leave it to the moderators and such to move posts if they deem it necessary. but hey, to each their own i suppose.

Re: Confused.........about moving posts
Whatever. I can see this goes nowhere It's a shame because I used to be able to use this site as a really great resource but I think my problem is utilizing the " families helping families" aka bullcrap, people who think they know everything thing, great place to post about useless crap while drunk, board. I am pretty disappointed at what this place has become, because I really like Ron and Kim, I've met them on numerous occasions. Unfortunately I thin I have to do what lots of others have done, and that is to just stick to our "secret" mommy groups on Facebook, and our other secret groups where lots of us have gone. There is no crap there, and you get plenty of great advice instead of plenty of frustration . Peace out.

Re: Confused.........about moving posts
My point exactly. Like we are in highschool or something. How about, answer my question if you have an answer, and then like an adult say, oh btw, you might get some great answers on the health board Guess people are incapable of taking the extra few seconds to do such a thing

Not sure why everyone gets so upset about this. If you don't like the rules that TPTB use, then don't use this website. There are plenty of other places on the internet to get information and advice.

Uncalled for...she has a valid point. And, as I have said before, it isn't about what gets reported to be moved, it is about who reports it.

My point exactly! Prime example of the type of person who reports posts because they feel like they are superior know it alls. I really don't give 2 craps if you "buh bye" me. Would you like me to shed a tear or something lol? Over your comment from someone I really could care less about lmao? Whatever. I will frequent whatever board I want , when I want, and question whatever I want to question., thank you very much. And slurpee dad, I agree 100%. I wish the know it alls would leave crap alone and let tptb make the decisions.
