Default Question about the Forum

I can't find the answer to this so I am going to just ask - On some of the posts they have been locked, Moved ... Why is this? Where do they move them to?
Also questions about car clean up, does that go on general or is there a section just for that?

Posts that get locked are usually due to a rule infraction of the Forum. No street racing posts, sex related posts , pics of girls, links to any of the above. The list goes on and on...just use common sense and you'll be ok.

Posts that are moved are usually because they're initially posted in the wrong Forum. Once they are moved click on the post and look in the upper left corner of the screen and follow the folders. That will show you where it got moved to.

As far a car clean up...don't post in General. It belongs in the Car Care Forum. Click on the "Forums" tab towards the upper left and move the cursor down to the "General Corvette" tab. The list of Forums that are related will appear to the right. At the bottom of the list is Car Care Products.

Good answer... and this one got locked for a couple reasons:

1) shoud have been posted in the help section, but, since you already have the answer it can end now
2) in lieu of starting a thread to ask this question, PM a Mod. for the answer...
