Posting in a forum such as the Area51 testing forum (http://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewforum.php?f=7" target="_blank) posts do not count towards your final post count. (this is normal).

What is not normal.. is that when you click on "View Your Posts" or search for all of your posts. The posts in these forums do not show up in results.

Is this a feature? Or an Error? Perhaps it doesn't load them into the search database on purpose because they are insignifigant?
