my entire thread was moved, where and why I do not know

Question
-
Recently (as a matter of fact today 6/28/2013) I started a thread in Transact SQL forum with some t-sql I was having some issues with and needed some help. I posted my question in T-sql forum but after posting the question I kept looking for answers and I finally I was able to solve the problem before anyone answered my question. I posted my answer to my oqn question and provided the t-sql that i thought will help some users in future. Immediately after i posted my answer my entire thread was moved by the moderator (I beleive) to some where I have no idea where and I do not know why it was moved. I thought my answer will only help users. if I did something wrong to violate the rules I would like to know so I can avoid it in future.Friday, June 28, 2013 7:01 PM

In this particular case the moderator was running tests

In the whole morning today the T-SQL forum produced the 'Server Error'. So, I noticed that many threads were moved by the moderator and eventually the problem got resolved.
So, it was just a coincidence, you did nothing wrong.

thank you very much and yes I was aware that I could see all my threads in the activity window. I as a matter of fact tried it as well before I posted this post and it didn't work but now it is working. When I tired it immediately after I moved it, i was getting an error message that I do not exactly remember but it was something like 'you do not have permission to perform this action'Friday, June 28, 2013 7:49 PM

You can also find your threads, no matter where they are, by clicking "Quick Access" and selecting "My Threads". But I think in this particular case, there was an unusual temporary problem.
