Long story short:

We have a single forum that is moderated (for classified ads). Also, instead of deleting a post (ad) that is deemed against the rules (and there are many), we like to put it into a "Purgatory" forum that only admins have access to view. That way, we have a record (or "evidence" if you will) of past posts.

Here's the catch: Ever since the upgrade to 7.x - including 7.5 - we haven't been able to do that. Oh sure, we can approve it and then hurriedly rush over to that forum and then move it, but that's a pain. Especially since anyone "watching" that forum will get an email about it.

Is there a way (config value or the like) to fix that? Or is that a feature request/bug? We're fine changing our "workflow" if there's another way to do it.

I suppose we could customize the "delete" button, but frankly, I'd rather avoid customizations.

It sounds like a feature request. You could moderate topics inline, but anyone 'watching' the forum will still get notifications.

OK, feature request it is...

However, it always feels weird to put in a feature request to get back a feature we had...
