News/Articles forum broken?

I don't know why, I think it is a bug or something. I tried to make a post about two minutes ago in the News forum and after I hit submit new thread, the standard message "You will now be returned to your post, if you want to post a poll..." But it drops me back to the news forum.

And the post is not published. I hit refresh a couple of times and then posted again. Same result. Why?

Thats not a bug. The posts in the news/articles forum have to be reviewed and approved by the moderators first.

I see. Thanks.
