You should move it there then
I view the Competition forums as the most important forums on the boards, in the order they are displayed. While local player threads are very important to the site, I don't see the need to assume someone who choose to post in the chat right below the local players forum meant to have it there, and just move it.
Also, chat is like a half step above spam, no moving that sorta thread outta here lol.
