If you are expecting that they will show up on the "New Posts" section immediately after you send it, apparently they don't. Mine not only don't show up for a few hours, but the actual thread is not visible to me during that same timeframe. Is that what is happening to you?....the Twilight Zone delay?

You're a new user with a very low post count. The forums are set up to "ghost" some posts on new users if something like certain key words or links are used in the post, or certain IP addresses might trigger it.
The post then requires moderator or administrator approval to become visible to the public.
One issue I know (from the other forum) is the moderators aren't really made aware that a new user had this happen, mods would have to manually search for the post or accidentally stumble across the post.
A brand new ghosted thread is usually a bit easier for a mod to notice, but a ghosted post inside a public thread is not.
It's all an effort to keep spammers off the forum.
(It doesn't stop spammers from sending you private messages though...I got another one today wanting me to try out and review some rinkydink code reader)
If you can figure out who the moderators are here in this forum, you could send a PM requesting they check your moderated post(s)

I'm a moderator on another forum that's also run by IB, I'm kinda familiar with how some of this works.

Hey, this is a link to the profile that was spamming via PM today. Please perma ban.
Same user name was sending the exact same messages to members on our other forum and was banned this morning.

Ah ok thank you for looking at what post needs to be approved. If you happen to see my post that needs approving, Im not a spammer I thought my reply was able to post or had a issue so I tried posting the same thing 3-4 times, sorry won't happen again now that I know what going on.
