I dislike seeing so many closed threads because they are placed in the wrong thread. In fact, I seem to be drawn to these locked threads out of curosity.... I do think that are moderators should direct posters to the right forums without locking a post. We have all seen someone poilitley say " you' receive better answers in the UA forum" why can't moderators just be people designated to remind people when the post out of place. I think alot of the "lost" posts occur when someone is new to FT. When I search the FlyerTalk Trip Report board, along with the great reports, I often find airline specific questions posted by people new to FT..... I would suggest moderators be used to re-direct by suggestion (I understand you cannot physically move them) instead of closing threads that do have good info.

PS. I am a little surprised at the dismay over having to sift through information on this board..... It doesn't take that much time to read the thread title and read or not read accordingly.....,.
