Request to move a thread

(Even better if users would post in the correct sub-forum right from the start, but the fact that quite many threads get posted in "wrong" categories might indicate that the structure isn't perfectly intuitive and could need some further tweaking... Of course, it could also indicate some lack of care on the users' side... ;-)

One of the most common causes is that one cannot reply to items posted in the Articles Forum (after all, they are articles, not forum posts, or so goes the logic) which leads to requests to move the original article, replies in other forums areas, etc.

But I agree, more care, and an understanding of what should go where, would help minimize these. That said, some topics, such as a 3rd-party emulator of an HP Calc could arguably belong in several places.

Adding add'l sub-fora has been suggested numerous times, but the over-riding sentiment is that this divides the readership, and we wish to remain a tighter community. It seems to me that users of this Forum could see past that, but then I always look on the positive side....
