So far, I've created two topics, and as far as I can tell, none of them have been approved. I've triple checked the Code of Conduct, and as far as I can tell, I haven't posted anything that was against it. I know that it's probably a bit redundant that I'm making a topic, about none of my topics being posted, but it's worth a try. My first thought was that it could be my username? Puredeath90 was the suggestion given my little cousin as I created this account. Since I couldn't think of anything better, I just went with it. (:P)
But then, I realized that whenever I comment on somebody else's topic/thread, the comment is published. So it couldn't have been the username stopping me from creating topics. Could somebody (Preferably a moderator) please offer any advice?
Thanks! - (I would put my wizard's first name here followed by "the theurgist", but i have no idea if they think I'm telling them my real name. :? )
lol I have the same problem. I just figured the moderators hated me after my first attempt of starting a thread ... Eventually I switched to wizard101central.com to contact other players because unlike here where it takes from 2 days to 3 weeks (I know from experience), it takes 5 seconds after you post to have it show up :).

Moderation on the Wizard101 official Message Boards is done by humans, and never takes 3 weeks, young Wizard. All posts are reviewed within 24 hours of posting, usually much sooner.

It will not be posted in 24 hours if they violated the board of conduct. If they did violate it shall never be posted.
If you read the Code of Conduct, you will notice that it also says that KI reserves the right to not post any comment for reasons of their own. In other words, you can obey all the rules (no bad language, no all caps, etc.) and still have your comment rejected. You will not know why, and they don't have to tell you. This is standard procedure for most company-run forums, so they are not being overly repressive or anything. It may be that the comment didn't add anything useful to the thread, or the thread topic wasn't something they wanted us to discuss right now, for whatever reason. I've had a few comments not posted for reasons that remain obscure to me.
That said, I've read and participated in several forums on different topics, and I think that, within this larger context, KI has pretty liberal posting standards. A lot of posts that are critical of the company show up here, and are allowed to go on and on (see posts on recent hoard spells, for example). I'm pretty impressed with the stuff they let us say here, so I can't really complain if a post gets rejected here and there. It's a good and fair forum overall, it seems to me.
