It does a *little more* than simply that...

The requirement to move them to another table was because the OP
didn't know how to "flag" records in the same table as deleted and
have them auto-magically ignored by finders, etc.

If the requirement is to archive them (which *isn't* the same as
softly deleting), along with the hassle of managing two sets of
tables... then acts_as_archived could be ideal.
