I'm sorry, but we are not going to have ghost threads. Not that many threads are moved to begin with. If one is, you can easily use the search feature to find it. If you posted in it, you can easily search your post history. If you are the author of the thread, you should have been PM'd when it was moved. Otherwise, a ghost thread is taking up space on a board and knocking off a useful thread to the second page that doesn't need to be. I'm sorry if that's not how it works on other forums, but that is how it's done here. As you mentioned, PPT isn't as big as some other forums, so it's not that hard to find a thread on the chance that is it moved.
If not that many threads are moved (which is the excuse other people had against ghost threads, by the way -- "we move too many threads out of general and it'll clutter the forum"), then why is it such a big deal? Usually, the bottom threads on the first page of general haven't even been posted on in a couple days (like I said, the forum's pretty quiet lately between plots -- and general's even quieter now that there's a separate plot board), so it's not a huge loss if they're pushed to page two. But it seems you've made your decision and don't care to even try any other way, so I may as well drop it, I suppose. I don't post here much anymore, anyway; I was mostly just arguing because I know so many other people want them and are scared to speak up because... well, participating in a thread like this, where people are asked to tell the people in charge what they're doing wrong, is never really a good idea.
