I've checked the permissions and don't see anything with regards to that. Could this be an isolated bug or is this just something that happens when a post is made global?

Technically one could uncomment the check in addpost.inc.php, but it's completely unsupported; but you'd be looking at: Code if ($issticky == "2" && ($user['USER_MEMBERSHIP_LEVEL'] != "Administrator")) { $html->not_right($ubbt_lang['NO_R_ANNOUNCE']); } Though, that'd make it more of a global sticky post I am a Web Development Contractor, I do not work for UBBCentral.

Best practice is to add a link to a secondary normal topic in the announcement. to allow people to respond to the post.. If you want them to reply.
