There's no need for insulting responses. In today's latest iteration of Gmail (web), you cannot select "Move" when multiple emails are selected with a filter. You have to then return to the inbox and select move from there. Which is an odd UI move and an odd process move. How many people would intuitively believe that going back to the Inbox would keep their filter choices?
The OP was obviously frustrated. And you should take that into account instead of being insulting. Your response sounds more like an Apple Support response than an attempt at actual help.
