    I know what the lock icon means. But I don't understand the blue arrows that say redirect. Can anybody help?

    Post has been moved to a new forum, likely regional.

    Thread was posted in the wrong forum so the Bros moved it to the correct one

    It means the topic has been moved into another forum. For example, when you see a thread title saying "Best bar in Boston" in the Beer Talk forum it will often have a blue arrow next to it because it's been moved to the US-New England forum.

    Thanx for the info. Do I have to go searching or use deduction to find the new forum or is there a shortcut?

    You should still be able to click on the link in the original forum for at least a little while.

    Also, the ironic thing about this thread is it will probably get moved to the Feedback/Help forum :wink:

    Just click it, man- it'll take you places you never knew existed:slight_smile: (...it's a shortcut).

    After this thread gets the blue arrow treatment, click on its name and you'll find it. :slight_smile:

    With all of your help, I have figured it out. Click on the title and the new location is shown under the title when the forum opens. I can rest easy now.

    Ironically, this is an example of a thread that could be moved via this feature.
