Misposted threads = Forgotten threads

Not quite sure where this post belongs (perhaps in Misposted Threads? ) but thought this would be as good a place as any.

Misposted threads is described as a forum to temporarily hold posts that are misposted until we can properly relocate them

Instead, however, it seems that once threads go into Misposted Threads, they never come out. A brief scan showed over 100 posts being abandoned there, some as much as two months old.

While the threads may have been misposted initially, they represent time and effort of posters, so it's a shame to relegate them to this purgatory indefinitely. Most appear to be relevant to the subject matter on Flyertalk, if not to any specific board. By default, anything that doesn't belong on any specific board should to to Omni.

Just wanted to flag the issue and hear what the solution is.

Thanks
