I noticed that there had been two threads started yesterday, each about the Islamic attack against innocent Americans: the one in Michigan, and the one in Virginia.

Both began in Current Events, as most certainly they occurred within 24 hours. Both were similar: an Islamist attempted to murder innocent people (and in the latter case, did). Yet one remains in Current Events, and the other was moved to an obscure sub-form entitled Law and Justice.

1) Why?
2) How about if the mod who moves a thread identifies himself so we can address questions like this directly to him?
 
one of the mods started a similar thread. Probably didn't like the competition for views and posts.
 
I started the one in law and Justice as that is where it's supposed to be.

Another member started a dupe thread later and it was combined with my thread.
It should be in Current Events. Nobody looks in Law and Justice.

But thanks for informing me.
 
I'm not sure what the OP's beef is

Anyway. There was a time when sub-forums like ''Law and Justice'' and ''Congress'' weren't considered ''obscure.''

That was back when those so-called ''obscure''sub-forums had quite a bit of traffic and some good, relevant discussion/debate. In fact, those threads in particular were often at the top of the board and discussion was just better and more relevant overall.

It was a much better forum back then.

These days, however, those sub-forums have been made obscure by some who seem to just want to keep their own personal pet peeves front and center in ''Current Events'' or whatever.

It's only been in the last couple/few of years that all of that has been turned upside down.

I wonder what the correlation might be. But, then, given the complaint made here, I don't think it's so hard to understand.

Generally "current events" threads get moved (in time) to the proper sub-forums where they should have been placed in the beginning.....So why not put them in those sub-forms to start with? It's just extra work for the mods to move them by and by.

Everything in it's proper place is something everyone should aspire to do.....Lisa's views not withstanding. ;)
