"report" - Guenter Schink - 08-10-2015 09:51 PM

When I want to "report" a post it says "You should only report posts that are spam, advertising messages, or abuse" I'd suggest that reporting a post in the wrong forum was also included as an option.

Guenter;

The report function is just an easier way to say the same thing to all 3 moderators with one note. Letting us know that a post would be better in a different sub-forum is good info as a PM or report, but better done as a report since it comes up on all of our screens in bright pink that way.

We'll always do something. I usually ask if i have a doubt. Once recently, a member reported a 34s post as being in the wrong forum but I wasn't sure if the OP wanted responses from the 34s group or from all users of the solver. I asked. He wanted his question moved but we left a redirect for a week so early readers could find it again at the same spot.
