hmmm...i just did the same thing (no affiliation) giving folks a headsup on a 911 donor I found in craigslist and it was moved?
Why not this one? Sorry to hijack this but I posted another topic to findout where mine went (thought someone might want to investigate a possible donor)..again no affiliation..and was only told where it was moved to (some obscure room)
Explanation? I was just trying to help those that might be looking for a six engine, fuchs, front suspension etc.
First of all let me say that I'm am extremely sorry to hear about your brother and I wish nothing but the best for him and your families.
I moved your thread for the 911 donor. It was moved to the appropriate classified forum right here on this site, not "some obscure room". That's where it belongs. When I want to look for a 911 donor for a 914/6 conversion my first thought isn't to search the garage forum on 914world.com. I go and look at the classifieds section of 914world because that's what they are for. We've gone to great lengths to make this forum's classified section one of the best out there. I've been moving threads just like that for years and will continue to do so.
I didn't move this thread because of all of the complaining about moving your 911 donor thread. When I discussed the issue with one of my fellow admins telling him, "I'm done moving threads", he persuaded me that that wasn't the right thing to do either. I've since gotten over it.

There is alot of moving going on in recent days
If you dont ask what one of the admins likes he moves your post.
Please...
The fact of the matter is that there are less admins these days, so there is actually
less "moving going on in recent days"
I understand that your perception is probably what it is because I moved your "Magic Jack" thread from the garage to the OT forum last week and you've been lamenting it's move ever since. If you want to post car related stuff in the garage, P-car or not, go right ahead. But stuff completely off topic is going to get moved as long as I'm acting in an admin role on this site.
I move threads almost every day on this site. I almost never PM when I do it. If the thread went to the correct forum in the first place, I wouldn't need to move it and you wouldn't have to ask where it went. Contrary to popular belief by some, their one post that got moved was not the only thing I do around here. And guess what? I miss some threads that should be moved too. It's not an exact science...
It's damned if you do and damned if you don't as an 914world admin. I do this because I want to give back to the 914 community. Stuff like this causes me to question that desire every time it comes up but I keep pluggin away anyway. I do it because I want to and for no other reason. No need to thank me.
I'm done here.
NEXT!
