Also, Lego (while I am in pestering mode - sorry!) it struck me this afternoon that threads that get moved can sometimes be hard to track down to their new location. Is it possible to have the moved thread still listed in the forum where it was for a time but obviously clicking on that thread links you to its new location? That way people don't post in a thread in a particular sub-forum and then come back an hour later and think 'where did it go?'.
The moved thread icon is left in place a good deal of the time, but often we will not leave one as it gives double exposure to people's errors and we dont want to encourage purposeful crossposting. Sometimes we forget too as the default in the software is to leave it off.
Use the 'My viewed threads' link to filter to threads you have read perhaps?

Oh I see - can't ever remember seeing a moved thread icon hence why I thought the feature wasn't implemented
