That's an option that can be set on a forum-by-forum basis. Existing forums like this one were probably grandfathered in, but it might default to 'Off' when new ones are added. I'd bet that's the case here. You'll probably get a response before too long saying that it's been flipped on (or it'll be flipped off in all the other forums...one of the two 
).
).
