Today, a thread on facet repair appeared in P&N, titled "DIY home reapir, need help: how do I fix a leaky fauce with a stripped screw?"
While my first impression is and remains, such a question does not belong in Politics and news,
none the less, having some prior DIY experience in the area of fixing such problems, I still made a stab at helping the OP on the thread. By the time I wrote up my response and posted, I found out the thread had quite properly been relocated, by an anand tech moderator, to some other anand tech forum subsection. I would have thought that the proper place for such a thread would have been highly technical or off topic, but the anand tech moderator in question never stated where the thread was relocated to. And when I subsequently looked, no such thread had been relocated to either of those areas.
So if I wish to follow such a thread to see if I can render further help to the OP, where do I find such a relocated thread once it vanishes from P&N? I just want to say I do not in any way question the moderator decision to relocate the thread, but I would hope that the moderators will as a matter of practice, will inform us all where the thread is relocated to. Unless such a thread is highly offensive or some such violations of forum rules, where total deletion would be the better course.
But all that was left was "Last edited by ElFenix; Today at 02:50 PM. Reason: Moved from P&N". I see there is a somewhat similar thread involving another issue is in off topic, but I can't find where this specific thread was moved to.
