Yes Toky, I used to pm strangers/newbies and explain where a post should be moved to and how to delete the original...75% of the time my advice was ignored, 20% the poster replied thanking me and did move the post, and the other 5% I got some nasty pms back.
As you know, none of us members get paid to take the extra time to try to help out this way and it just became not worth it for me anymore...and those members who have had their posts removed or deleted wonder why. Sigh.
