Going on the assumption that it's not a forum bug:
Check to make sure your browser isn't forcing a cached version of a certain page, I know this sometimes happens when your browser detects a poor connection. You can completely force refresh a page by using ctrl + F5.
Another possibility could be that a certain person posted and then removed the post thereafter.
Try running the same checks on different browsers, also I think if you would like a proper response perhaps screenshots and links would be needed.
If however, it is as you say - a bug, then you'd most definitely need the above information available for moderators to pass on.
