Could someone please explain
A few days ago, I posted a thread about Charlie Sheen in GD. It was eventually moved to entertainment. Since then quite a few threads about said personage have been posted in GD and not moved to Entertainment. My thread was arguably the most newsworthy of the threads posted.

Thanks.

1. My guess (having not seen the thread you posted)
The way these things usually work is that the mods tend to move pure entertainment news to the Entertainment forum unless it's a story that has "gone mainstream" and a lot of people are talking about it, in which case more leeway tends to be given in GD until the story dies down. Which would explain why your earlier post was moved but subsequent posts were not.

2. There were posts that were just about simultaneous with mine
that remained in GD and mine wasn't moved until it had dozens of posts. Nor was this purely entertainment as the story I posted had to do with Mr. Sheen's comment about his boss.

In any case, thanks for the response.
