[This thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=354755) (Aren’t you tired of all the global warming crap?) is currently visible in IMHO, and says “Moved”, but when I click on it I get the “you do not have permission to access this page” thing. Why is this? I have my suspicions, but if they are correct surely the thread should also be invisible (to us).

It’s a glitch. I moved it from IMHO to GD. When it was taken away the redirect remained in IMHO. I don’ t know if there is any way to fix that.

Yes there is. I just fixed it. Newbie moderators like you aren’t permitted to know the dread secrets of the “remove redirects” incantation until you pass the next level. When the call comes, have ready a goat and a jar of vaseline.

What, you don’t wanna stick around to hear about the goat and vaseline combo?

A goat and vaseline combo? I think I got that at an Arby’s once!
