Some would, some wouldn't. Some people just plain refuse. Such is life though.
What would help with this is if you think something belongs in general interest, hit abuse on it and tell us. Most of my time moderating is when I am at the office, working. I am not monitoring the forum directly. I have a little pager window that tells me when an abuse report comes in. I have no qualms with moving a thread to General Interest if it belongs there. And if you think the time to move it is after it has a few comments, then wait until there are a few comments before hitting abuse.
Thanks, AM
