Means you posted in a forum thread.
And in your profile there is a link:

Hmm. OK, so then I guess a board FAQ is needed, haha. It's still not exactly the same, as you'd have to paginate through "Recent posts" to see if any thread you've participated in has had new activity, but I guess that's not a big deal.
*walks off*
[NEW POSTS] shows new posts in threads youvve participated in i believe.
