Where have all the threads gone?

Several benefits related threads have been moved to the CAB board. Most had already received an accurate answer. Any idea why they were moved?

Maybe the OP requested it? Can't think of another valid reason.

I thought that at first, but all eight are from different users.

I find it difficult to believe that so many posters would want their threads moved! It seems that MSE (or whoever they are now) are trying to get more osts in the CAB section. I think it will be a shame if that results in people not knowing where to look for help regarding benefits etc.

All HB queries? The CAB HB thread was looking a bit lonely?

Good spot - yes, they are all HB related.

The thing is though some of them posted on the CAB section first, they got no answers so they posted here where they should have posted anyway only to be relegated back to the section where they got no answers!

Goal MSE, not.

Why is there a CAB board, I didn't know about this. Why can't can't advisers post here?

Doesn't this just mean that people who have an interest/expertise in any area in which CAB offer advice haver to visit two places?

Yes, it's really not working for anyone- not the Op's, not the CAB and not the regular contributers.

seems a bit confusing so far that CAB board, its early days i guess but getting an answer in 48hrs is an age on these forums.

And are we supposed to be helping still or not ? as much as im all in favour of the CAB (can i have a job please CAB ), there are experts replying to these threads who will be quicker & so far more accurate / helpful than some replies ive seen.

And the way the threads were removed, some kinda heads up or slightly less generic reply might have been helpful, surely we're all here to help in these forums ?!

All the posts have been moved by the same person 'alwaysonthego' with the foreword 'moving threads for a better response'????
The threads moved already had their answers but the new board looked a little bare. 99% of the replies on that board are answered by non CAB users anyway so i cant see why its needed even the CAB reps dont seem that interested in it.
