Somehow I ended up posting in two threads in Great Discussions. I only ever go to the Pit and here, except when I am reading Siam Sam’s pigeon thread. I am assuming that one of the threads was moved from the Pit to Great Discussions as some time, but I cannot find where/when/why. And then maybe I thought I was in the Pit and started posting in another GD thread? Dunno. Anyway, can a mod tell me if either of [these](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=453852) [two](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=752368) thread was ever in the Pit, and if not, how the heck did I end up in GD? 😃 ---

Neither of the threads says “Moved”, as they often do when relocated. Did you maybe have multiple windows open? Dunno. If you didn’t say anything Pit-worthy, you’re golden. Regards, Shodan ---

Neither of those threads was moved. One thread had a spam post deleted. Other than that, there were no moderator actions with either thread. ---

No, only one window open at a time - that’s enough for me to keep track of! Thanks for looking **engineer\_comp\_geek** , guess I’m losing my mind faster than I thought … 😉 ---

I’m far too lazy to go to the effort of researching if it applies to the “hating a child” thread, but I know for a fact that the “sterilize welfare recipients” thread has been linked to from at least one thread in the Pit.\* Perhaps you followed links to these threads and found that you had contributions to make without noticing which forum you were in. \*(again, far too lazy to research which thread I saw it in. :)) ---

Sounds like something I’d do anyway!
