Merge Replication recreates table for every sync

I have this weird issue with our merge topology.

When adding new tables to the already existing topology and after running the snapshot agent it recreates those new tables every time the sync happens by the merge agent.

And i checked at the publisher sysmergearticles table, the status was set to 6 instead of 2. So it recreates the table everytime.

Let me know if there are any fixes for them. I can think of updating the status back to 1 and check, but want to make sure if this can be done in a producation envrionment without any side effects.

PS: this happens if we add the non-filter or download-only articles to the topology.
