OP, don't worry about it, common mistake. Just remember that for next time, and try not to incite fights.

Everyone else: No need to snark at a noob for not knowing where to post a thread. Everything's easier when you just politely tell them that's not how things are done. Problem solving can be tricky and frustrating; no need to compound on that. Just report the thread and walk away if you don't know how to help.
