How to find "your posts"?

[sharkbit]

I'm not seeing this black dot. Can you describe it better or take a screen shot?

When you're in the Silent Hunter 3 forum(or any other forum of your choice) and the list of all the threads in that particular forum are shown, on the far left are little envelope icons. Some will show little flames, some will be closed envelopes, and some will show a padlock on them. The posts that you have posted in will have a black dot on them.
There is an index at the bottom of the page for what those icons mean.

Maybe there is some setting in your user CP that is not allowing to see these?
