rickbig41 threads blocked

Why all the threads created by rickbig41 are blocked on this forum?

They're not blocked. They're redirection notices when he's moderating and relocating threads in wrong forum sections to the correct ones, like this thread should be. It will be moved to meta/ where it belongs and a redirection notice will appear in bitcoin discussion/

As that has been cleared up, he could at least stop spamming the forum with needles redirect threads. I take it that moderators often move things without actually leaving redirect threads, as there are cases in which this is really not necessary. Back in the ol' days, my *don't leave - to - leave ratio* was probably ">1:10". One possible explanation is that he thinks spamming redirect threads will make it seem like he is *doing the most stuff* around here.

That's a worthwhile discussion. I redirect thousands of threads and don't leave redirection notices. My default approach is to NOT leave redirection notices on new threads when there has only been an opening post. If anybody has posted a response only then will I use a redirection notice since someone besides the opening poster is already interested in that thread and will come back looking for it.

I'd ping @rickbig41 to this thread but this forum's software is so arcane and shit I can't even do that.
