    Hello,

    1. Is there a forum for asking questions about how MSDN forums work? So far I've discovered only the one for bug reporting.

    2. How could I move a topic to another forum or mark it to be moved so that someone else (moderator?) moves it later?

    Hi Dave, I meant the case when I don't have moderator rights.

    You can modify the post's title to something like [please move to forum X] original title here.

    Probably I should have mention all the details in the first post. Scenario is as follows:

    - I browse on of my favorite forums and notice that some thread should definitely be moved to another more appropriate forum.

    - I don't have moderator right on this forum (neither on the other one I want to move this thread to).

    - Thread I want to move was not started by me.

    Then click the "report as abuse" link at the end of the post, then select off topic. If you feel this is not enough, try the forum suggested by Luigi.

    Thanks Sheng. That's the way I've done it in the past. I was trying to figure out if there's a nicer solution, looks like not.
