I don't think Kiba was saying that he doesn't care what people think. I think he was saying that he doesn't care which section this particular post goes in. Sorry, Kiba, if I'm wrong and being presumptuous.
In general I don't think there is usually one right section for a post. If someone wants economic analysis of a subject or thought they'll put it there. They might put the exact same post in say project development if they are more interested in the logistics of actually doing the thing or want help or something.
A good rule would be to trust that someone with 100+ posts knows about all the sections and made an informed decision about where to place a thread unless it is totally obviously wrong. Like a WTB in Meta, people sometimes mistakenly think they are in a different forum. Noobs though are more often careless, and also less likely to have a strong desire for putting it in a certain place. I don't start many threads, but if I do I know I want them where I put them.
So, more deference to old-timers and more 'help' for newbies imo. And less moving in general, though I know some of it is just transitional.

I admire your determination, but that's just stupid
Don't like the moving? Complain each and every time I moved something. Than I'll stop moving anything.
Right now, it looks to me to be the first complaint about an everyday routine maintenance activity.

You must be joking 
Nobody complains. I consider that a "yes".
My sorting algorithm is about 99% accurate as far as I am concerned.

What you perceive as "the right place" might be perceived differently by other people, so why don't you leave things where they are and save some time for yourself and other?

this is a forum full of anarchists and hackers; you are moving their posts (infringing on their speech!). of course they get upset.

That may be so, but I am changing or censoring anybody at all. Just moving them to the right place.
Maybe we could have a forum process of waiting for a few forum readers to suggest to the moderator(s) that a post be moved... that way it is somewhat more of a democratic process.
K, let's start right now. I, for one, think this thread should definitely be moved to Meta because "nobody reads that section" is never a good excuse to post something in the wrong section.
I am not sure why people are getting worked up by my categorization effort.

Why don't you simply give it up then?
You have made it quite clear right now that you do not care to keep your position.
I said I don't care either way.
good commander listens to his army

Who went and made you moderator again?
And I don't care if I lose my power.

I support benevolent/rational autocratic authority. The thread was clearly an economic one.
You should. This isn't "your" forum.

* kiba shrugs
I don't really care.
You should. This isn't "your" forum. Are you high right now or something? Go take a break and step outside or something please...
