<p>rigaudon, I’m not sure if there is a way to differentiate a thread that has been moved (other than to come across the original link in the original forum).</p>
<p>I happen to know specifically about this thread because my first reply was generated in the original forum (possibly the search and selection forum).</p>
<p>Take a look at the thread here: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/789635-music-college.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/music-major/789635-music-college.html</a> Post 5 by JEM (the moving moderator) posted the fact that the thread was indeed moved (in this case from the Parents Forum if I recall). Both binx and I suggested a move here. I went a bit further by hitting the report problem post button and suggested the thread be moved based on content.</p>
<p>While this may raise some eyebrows, please be aware it is the moderator/administration recommended means of getting a problem post (foul language, spam, phishing attempts) or a misdirected post moved to the appropriate forum quickly. Anyone wishing to verify this is welcome to ask the same question directly of administration or a moderator. </p>
<p>I’ve requested numerous times to have music specific questions within the other CC forums be moved, as I’ve done for some other arts discipline posts. The mods do a great job in moving the ubiquitous “chances” threads and other topics to the appropriate forums, yet have seemed to leave many arts specific postings alone and do not move them. Some are best left where they are originally posted, but those dealing specifically with arts discipline related questions are often best addressed within the appropriate subforums where the full benefit of discipline expertise can be employed.</p>
<p>Some of the responses generated to these types of questions in the other forums can be downright frightening or blatantly wrong. ;)</p>
<p>It’s possible the mods may well truncate or delete some of the info I post now as potentially a TOS violation. If that should happen, I’m confident they will provide an administratively appropriate position and clarification.</p>
<p>And while we’re on the subject, there are a few that have assumed I am a mod or may operate within some form of official capacity. I do not possess “higher” powers and have indicated that in prior threads.</p>
<p>For those unaware, the mods have an identifier in their user name, in lieu of the the member designation; those with administrative powers have the designation of administrator. Take a peak at JEM’s in the post I referenced.</p>
