Trust me, it belongs on the health board. Godenrod, you are right, you are requesting to have posts moved out of the kindness of your heart, and for that, I am sure everyone is grateful. Except, they aren't. Those that have posts moved are not happy that you do it. So, you may think you are helping people, but in reality, you are just annoying the heck out of them. Thanks!
I have to say i find it amusing that an obvious observer (yes, like myself) is expending so much of their efforts to keep this nasty, snarky post going.
Posts get moved, we should just take a breath and move on. Why do you let an online forum affect your mood so dramatically? Isn't this supposed to be a form of entertainment, in a way, not unlike FB? If your post gets moved, why not just X-Post to it if you want to make sure it gets traffic/answers?
**Edited to tone down my own snarkiness, I apologize.**

Re: Confused.........about moving posts
Pretty much if I don't like you, I report all of you posts hoping a few of them get moved just to pizz you off.
JK. I'm not big on reporting posts. I can't say that I ever have. Maybe once or twice if it was really egregious? I'm not even sure I have.
I wish the other boards would get as much traffic. It would be better for everyone!

Holy mother of god FINALLY someone gives me a definition!!!! I could  You!
I completely agree with slurpee dad 100%, I feel like this place has turned into a complete p1ssing match, some people on here are so rude it's disgusting, like when you correct someone's spelling errors, etc. you know that makes you? An a$$hole! Please don't tell me you're trying to save the world one word at a time when you do this (because I am sure that will be the next argument on here). You are just being a snarky *****.
Goldenrod, unfortunately I think you need to get a life dude. The bottom line is you are acting like a know it all. You and others report posts that you don't see fit on a board, which brings it to the attention to tptb, so please, don't try to state that it's not in your hands, because it is. I am sure Ron, Kim, and Liz have better things to do than read every post and decide what goes where, so when you report to have a post moved, you are in my eyes being a tattle taleing child ( and I am sure taleing it not a proper word, but don't worry guys, the sky won't fall and the world won't end.). I don't care if you think you're being helpful, you are not. And the way you are answering people is making me ill. And I asked you what this board was for them, and instead of answering my question, you are having a pissing match now with slurpeedad.

So based on this definition, most of the stuff on there right now shouldn't be there, and honestly, doesn't bother me in the slightest. This is what I don't get. The world isn't going to end if the Gary carter posts stay there, or the tampon post. But some people who really need help who post there don't receive it because of this stupid moving crap. I asked my therapy question there because 1. I felt it would be seen by more people and 2. It was on the correct board. I didn't have a health issue, I needed a therapist, and maybe instead of people being snarky and asking to have my post moved, maybe instead they could have reached out, one human being to another

 Long drawn out posts over where to post a post and why it doesnt belong. The things that make people feel special.
 I have never understood (even after breezing through this crazy thread) why anyone gives a shizz if someone posts something on the "wrong" board. "Reporting" a post, like an elementary school hall monitor, is such a bizarre inclination to me. Does it come from a sense of social responsibility? Are "off-topic posts"--hard to imagine in FHF seeing as that's pretty general--irritating to look at?

I'm not going to change what I do. If I see a topic that I think the owners of this site would prefer having on a different forum, I'll let them know about it.
Surprised this wasnt picked up on.
I posted something about how young girls get Pregnant, and how the girls on "16 and pregant" act, and how it related to real life.
It got moved, but was NOT an entertainment post.
Its very eye opening to see that posters "report" what they THINK TPTB would like to have moved.....
How do you know what the TPTB would like?

And I asked you what this board was for them, and instead of answering my question, you are having a pissing match now with slurpeedad.
I did actually answer your question explicitly, immediately after your post...
I only report what I think are "obvious" topics. And NOT all of the posts I report get moved. If someone is asking about paint color for their living room, that's pretty obvious that it's a Home topic. If someone is asking about a vet for their dog, it's pretty obvious that it's a Pet topic. If a topic isn't blatantly about an existing forum topic, it belongs in FHF. These are the rules we all agreed to.
Again, you believe I am childish for reporting posts, but I think you're childish for complaining about it. In the end, nobody is right. By you responding to this "pissing match", you have put yourself in the same category that you claim me to be in.....
At this point, I'm slightly amused that posts getting moved really affects your life this much. You think you're helping people be posting things wherever you want, and I think I'm helping by organizing them. You're making the same decisions that I'm making, just from a different direction.
By you not suggesting that Home posts go in the Home board, you're not helping, either. Just because you think your opinion is better than mine doesn't make you right.
So, if a person comes on FHF and asks about what carpet they should put in their living room, and in a few hours, it sinks to page 3, do you think it's in their best interest and to let it die? You've made a conscious decision that it should remain on FHF.... If it got moved to Home, people would actually help them.
I'm wondering how soon it will be before this thread gets pulled.... (and it won't be because of me reporting it....)

Exactly. Because these people think they know it all, and how dare you post that where you did. Shame on you.

So I re read what you wrote, and no, you did not answer my question about what the fhf board is for, at all.
And for the record, my original post was not to cause drama, it was to simply know the procedure of moving posts. Not to get snarky. Other people started that with the rude " buh byes" and restating that this is brought up ever week ( which is a complete exaggeration). Believe me, I did not lose sleep last night.

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.
Buh-bye!
I wish there was an emoticon to give you the finger and tell you to shut the f up. You can kiss my u know what. Please, miss member since 2011 with almost 600 posts, go shove it.
Havent gotten to the end of this thread yet, but you are contradicting yourself repeatedly. In one post you say you want to be treated as an adult and not like in high school. Then 2 min later you're throwing a childish tantrum and looking to give the finger. Very adult. The whole threatening to leave for attention is played out too and is childish. I know I dont have as many posts as you(read "I'm not as cool as you") but I see what I see.

Doesn't matter how many posts you have, you are entitled to your opinion. I started this thread out with the intention of knowing what the reporting process was, and why it was there. I was then attacked by 2 posters who are known to do such. I am sorry, but I will not be spoken to in the manner in which they did, therefor, I stuck up for myself and fired back. Sorry, I'm human. And whether I am contradicting myself or not is, again, your opinion.

Re: Confused.........about moving posts
being that this is STILL going on - I still don't get reporting a post.
Unless it's hateful smut (which is what I would hope the reporting feature on this site is actually for) I see no reason to report. But maybe just suggest to the OP that they may get better answers on a different board.
Think about it for a second.
It really sounds to me that the people reporting for posting on the wrong board - are trying to control the boards themselves. And saying you don't remove posts, only admin. can do that - It's almost like when someones MIL gives a HELPFUL SUGGESTION that we all know is her way of butting into someone else's business - but politely.
This whole thing is nuts, and everyone has a right to their own opinions (The point of half of these boards anyway) We all know what they say bout opinions..
I would really like to see what an administrator has to say about this.
What is reporting REALLY for? Is it for SPAM or hateful smut or for someone who feels a post should be moved elsewhere.

Yes and No
But again, if you look at other posts on FHF, there are one's that pretty obviously could belong elsewhere.
It's opinion. Everyone's is different. And because of that, if you're not interested in the post.... just move on. Let admin do their jobs.

One could argue yes, but why is it not appropriate to be on families helping families as well, especially after the definition that was posted? My point is that I wanted it on fhf so that's where I put it, for a reason.

I understand that you wanted the post to be here, I really do, but apparently tptb thought otherwise and by you saying you can see how it would be considered health related, well, I just don't understand why you couldn't have posted the original post on the health board and then x-posted it to FHF.
In all fairness, there are forums out there that if you post on the wrong board, whether you think it belongs there or not, you get the boot. If this was another site, you wouldn't even have the chance to x-post.
Perhaps that's what needs to happen here? Then posters would be forced to post on the correct boards and they'd get more visibility?
That last part wasn't really directed to you, OP. Just me thinking out loud.

But who's to say the admins didn't do their job? 
Maybe they saw the post (be it on their own or via reporting) and felt it should be moved?
I've reported posts that haven't been moved. I then took it as tptb felt differently...and were wrong!
Opinions are like assholes, we all have one and they all stink!

I'm saying they don't do their jobs. If they saw her post and moved it, then why don't they move the hundreds of posts that could be on other boards. I guarantee that it was reported by an LIF Veteran and it got moved. I said it before, I flagged a post to be moved because it was blatantly on the wrong board, but it was never moved because of who wrote it and who reported it. They can do what they want, it is their site, but when people like GoldenRod preach about helping out, it is really just annoying. They aren't helping out, they are feeding their own ego.

Re: Confused.........about moving posts
I give this thread a 7 out of 10 on the entertainment scale.
Just do what I do and never create threads. Then you don't have to worry about your threads being moved.
If I need to create a thread, it's usually because I need to find an answer to something. Hence the search function AND google is your friend!
