Crap I asked a general question in the social section how do I re-route it?

Ask a mod. Click contact and say what you want to do. Anytime about any thing.

Flag the question “flag as” and then ask in the comment section.

^ also correct.

You might consider leaving it where it is. Many people are asking “serious” questions in the Social section, so the responses are held to the rigid standards.

Do what @yarnlady said, or you can pop in chat and ask a mod to take a look into it for you.
