Apologies to our new mods, and help me understand some posting stuff please
Don't mind having threads moved and such, I generally post in GD and if something has to go elsewhere so be it. Sometimes I go overboard and and don't pay attention

One of the things I posted today was/is still on major news networks but was moved to a state forum, other things I posted were not moved to such forums (and were actually more local).

Not really complaining here, just trying to get what I am missing and how I can do better in knowing where to post things. With all the freak trolls you have your hands full and don't need me cluttering up things.

Here is the one I am talking about and some others that were not moved:

Not moved:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x6232461
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x6232263

Are there hard and fast rules about what is local and what is not, and should I alert on stories to have them moved if they only happened in one state and do not affect another?

I missed something somewhere and will only post stories which are not federal in state forums if needed to save you all some trouble.

Now go kill some more trolls :)

1. DNA and workers rights are of national interest
particularly to DU.

A newleywed hiring a hitman has no political connection and is really more of a Natalie Holloway type story to me.

2. Partial answer
Sometimes the GD mods will move a thread to a different forum if they think the thread is better served there. However, I can't give you a better understanding for your particular threads though.
