There is a post in Cafe Society named “best magic trick ever!!!” that has a ‘Moved’ indicator. But when I click on it I get the message page which says, “randwill, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:, ect”

What’s up with that?

It probably means it’s been moved to one of the private mod-only forums

Yep. It was forum spam. Whoever moved it forgot to uncheck “Leave redirect.” I’ve removed the redirect, so I’ll go ahead and close this thread.
