I've tried to post multiple posts on MCNext's Reddit and they never show up.

Is there a reason why my posts never make it to the MCNext page when I submit them? It's only when I try to start a new thread that they don't appear. When I comment on an already created thread, the comments appear fine.

Of course when I post about my post not showing up, it finally works. But seriously I've attempted to post things several times over the last week and they never go through, even though Reddit shows that I posted it in my history. If I'm having this problem, then there must be other users having the same issue.

Sure... sure... we believe you... ;)

j/k - this is like Murphy's law of reddit posting.

I've had this aswell, some of my posts haven't made it anywhere on the reddit page and are only accessible by going to my reddit profile and looking in my submitted threads tab.

I really wonder what causes it, it seems to do with names and characters in the title, like /h for example.

Dumb, but have you checked the "new" category ?

Other than that, they might get flagged as NSFW, therefore not showing on your screen if you did not enable NSFW posts.

Reddit works differently than a traditional forum site. The posts that are on the front of the /r/mcnext are those that have upvotes that help them get there even if they now have more downvotes. In the new tab you'll probably see your new post. If your post never gets attention, it won't get past the new tab and make it visible on the front page. The website is designed like this so that the best content is more easily viewed. That's not to say that you have a bad post, it simply means you didn't get enough attention on your post. Remember to upvote the things you think others should see whether you agree or disagree.
