Well, yeah. I mean I moved it to Discussion once, it was deliberately moved back to Main, I moved it to Discussion again, then it was moved back to Main again, so I hit 'Ban'. Er, duh?
It seems it may have been accidental, rather than deliberate. If so that would seem to be a simple bug in the lesswrong source. ie. Almost certainly 1 line of code in the part that selects which option starts selected on the edit page.
That wouldn't have helped, since I'd probably already loaded the page before it was moved back to discussion.
Yesterday, someone moved one of my posts from Main to Discussion without telling me. Again.
I encourage the site administrators to show some basic courtesy to the posters who provide the content for the site. I believe this would be a better way of doing things:
1. Have a policy on what has to happen to move a post from Main to Discussion. Who can do it? How many admins are there who can do this? State this policy in a FAQ.
2. When you move a post from Main to Discussion, make a comment on the post saying you have done so and why you have done so.
