Was my post not approved by moderator?

I recently made a post on Groon the Walker's profile complaining about some minor issues with some of their old quests. In the quest there are these [dice]9042[/dice] tags now with large values in them (for example 9042 for a d100 dice throw) that don't seem to make sense. Perhaps it was some forum software issue that caused it? It was my second time reading it, and I don't remember seeing this issue when I first read the quest. I like the quest, and I think it would be great if the issue can be fixed. So I sent a message to the author to the quest about the issue, and I see a message saying that it's pending moderator approval, and a while later, the post is gone. What happened? Was the post not approved by moderator? Or was it deleted by the user? I am not familiar with the forum's interfaces, so apologies if I am missing something obvious.

(Edit: now I can see my post to the quest author again, with the message saying that it's awaiting moderator approval. So I guess it's just a forum software bug.)

Iirc, some of your posting privileges are not granted until after you make your first post on the forum proper as opposed to profile posts.

Your first post has to be approved in order to keep out bots.

The wierd numbers you're seeing for dice rolls in old quests is due to the fact that the XF2 dice roller and the XF1 dice roller handled rolls in different ways and the pre-changeover rolls are broken now.
