Empty Folders Keep being deleted

I just wanted to let you know, you aren't imagining things. I've been having the same issue. Empty folders disappear. I recreate them, they disappear. I don't have this issue with any other files on my computer that aren't within Dropbox, so I can only assume that it's a Dropbox function that's deleting empty folders automatically.
