Why so Quick to Move Threads?

[Mutatis-Mutandis]

I'm just curious, when a thread is posted in General Literature, let's say about Mark Twain, why does it always have to be moved to the much-less-visited Twain forum? It isn't like General Literature is super busy or anything. It's going to get more views there, and more participation. I get it's the rules, but is it really that big of a deal?

Please, move Twain threads to the forum named slaves, so modern readers can be less offended and understand better. Thanks.

It's got nothing to do with the "rules".. it's how the owner of the site wants things organised.

This topic has come up many times, the latest thread on it..
