That's odd, mine doesn't. That stinks!
Holy cow! That is why you (read I) shouldn't post first thing in the morning before I'm actually awake. Huge mistake on my part!
What I meant to say was the "new replies" section, not the "read posts" section. That's not even a thing. If you click on the new replies button, then any post you've posted in will show up whenever someone else replies in that thread. If there are no new replies, then they won't show up.
So, the rules thread keeps showing up in the new replies section whenever anyone acknowledges the rules.
