    Why are my post being redirected?

    The last couple post I have posted came up with a box saying your post has been redirected? Is this something new?

    There may a million better places to live than Iowa, but none of them are home!

    I haven't had that problem. I"m not very geeky but the first thing I thought of was to run an anti-malware scan.

    I didn't redirect yours so this is a guess. Likely, it was more appropriate for a different category than where you put it. For instance, if you put a question about how to list on Ebay under General - Let's Talk Business, a moderator may move it to Ebay Traders. But, I'd suggest opening a ticket to ask admin for a definitive answer.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    I noticed a couple are listed as "moderated", could that be the reason Mick??
