how come the "WRONG FORUM" nazi's don't ever bother these types of posters??

okay i always see people coming in here talking about Halo 2 and the nazis post saying "YOU KNOW WE HAVE A SOFTWARE FORUM RIGHT? WRONG FORUM!".

or we will have someone make a post about abortion or politics and the first reply will be "YOU TAKE THAT SH!T TO P&N!, WRONG FORUM!!"

or someone will come in asking an opinion on an LCD monitor and get the reply "WE HAVE A VIDEO FORUM FOR A REASON!! WRONG FORUM!!"

but how come when people post links to interesting news articles, such as the one about the hunter who killed the 5 or 6 other people, or about the artificial dolphin fin, the forum nazis never come in and say "WRONG FORUM!! WHAT DO YOU THINK THE N IN P&N STANDS FOR ... NOTHING?!?!?"

when in fact, the forum stands for POLITICS AND NEWS.

so my question is, why don't you nazis ever tell those people, whom post links to CNN or Yahoo news about an article, ever give them the "WRONG FORUM" post?!?

EDIT:
This is a serious question, because I think its pretty annoying when someone has a question about an XBox game or something in here and doesnt post it in the software forums, yet gets flamed for it. this forum obviusly gets much more traffic and alot of people in here like video games as well, so think its a great discussion area for gaming.
 
I'm guessing those people have nothing good to say and just trying to pad their postcount. Or gasp, they are trying to police the forums before this place becomes a pile of trash.

P&N is reserved for flamebait news stories, in my opinion.

Because P&N is a cesspool of waste where actual news is discarded in favour of the latest anti-Bush blastfest.

all you guys are doing is making up excuses about the political posts. i'm talkin about the NEWS posts that TECHNICALLY should be in the P&N forum.

i'm sure the OP of all those threads that the nazis hit could make up an excuse why its in the OT forum as well.

this isn't an "issue" ... this is a "question I had" (notice how I made up an excuse to allow it to be in here, as some of the posters above were trying to do to rationalize why some news articles can be in here and why some politics can't.

also, this is a serious question, because I think its pretty annoying when someone has a question about an XBox game or something in here and doesnt post it in the software forums, yet gets flamed for it. this forum obviusly gets much more traffic and alot of people in here like video games as well, so think its a great discussion area for gaming.

then you need to ask the moderators your "serious question" , they are the ones that move/lock/delete threads and admonish the people that post wrongly, we are just the peanut gallery that contribute to the chaos
