Well the usage is to move anything that fit better elsewhere away from "General", in order to stop it resembling a "throw anything here and see what it does" place.
For instance I am moving this to the "Administration, Announcements, Policy" section... But I leave a note behind so that you can find it back in "General". It just won't be moved up in "General" thread list anymore.
On the other hand the admin team has limited time available, so topics that would deserve it are actually moved on a somewhat random basis.
An exception to that randomness is when someone report a thread for being misplaced, this usually results in a move if th reporter was right about it.
Another exception is - and your topic falls into that category - anything "commercial" is really forbidden in General. Funds requests, crowd-funding announcements, sales, adverts etc really need to be contained in the business section, as lot of people consider it as spam.
Most of my technical comments should be correct, but is THIS one ?
Anyway, as a rule of thumb, always double check what people write.
