I just posted many gifs and webms of a amazing Animation with different angles by a WoW porn animator and it's clear a moderator has noticed them. He up voted the first post, then down voted one of the Webms for some odd reason. I still have more to post, and none of the posts have been approved after an hour of waiting.
The tags are set, the source is listed. Everything is golden besides the few tags I need to delete cause the mod decided there was a human in my post when it's just a Satyr and Troll.

how do you know that it was a mod voting your post? or do you like. go through the votes of mods regularly or something?

You're worrying yourself too much here. It's normal for posts to take some time to get approved, it's the middle of the night (And I'm still awake but I'm the exception here I'm special) and it's the norm for posts to get approved after many hours. Everyone can vote by the way, not only the mods, so I don't know how you can be sure those votes are from the same mod while it can be from someone else, or maybe even more than just one person

I had no idea mods weren't the only ones allowed to vote unapproved posts.

I wasn't aware that users were able to see, none less vote on posts that weren't approved. My bad.

The "human" tag was added by you. Nobody in staff has even looked at your recent posts yet.

This can't actually be done anymore. voted(up/down):anything is now the equivalent of voted(up/down):yourself.As far as I can tell, the only posts lower level users can't see are deleted posts.

There used to be a handful of posts that were hidden from anonymous users for some reason, but I can't remember what the metatag to get them was and I see no mention of it on the current tag cheatsheat. It was probably don away with.

It's probably the hide-from-google feature, which I believe can only be put onto a picture by admins.
