Why is this?

So, as you all probably know, joke levels are banned from being posted in the Levels forum, and any joke levels (like my Block Bullshit level) that are already present are automatically deleted. As well as this, all levels should have a screenshot that actually shows part of the level, rather than a fake one.

However, why is it that GhostHawk's joke level, Save Germany, has a misleading screenshot and is still in the Trash Can despite being a joke level, when it really should be deleted? Shouldn't the topic be locked or deleted because it's breaking some of the levels forum rules?

This is because the Level's Production was made way back then like that these type of rules related to the whole Level Forum Section aren't there yet (and it was also the day where @GhostHawk was not a Global Mod yet).

We just forgot to delete the level. That's all.

But wasn't the screenshot of the level that showed an SMW grassland level misleading, and if so, why didn't the topic get locked?

I don't remember there being any rules about misleading screenshots.

Actually it's not exactly misleading since that SMW grassland section is in the level, but only fits on that one specific screen. But yeah since joke levels are against the rules now, you can delete it if you want.

Joke levels are banned? I don't like that. They should get their own junk forum at least.

Also, there are some other joke levels that aren't gone such as egg and Mario Dies.

I've left joke levels already in the trash can alone, but ones in the main level forum and/or the casual subforum are getting deleted.

Only the really bad joke levels, right? The Block-Bollocks/#UtterBS levels?

I think they should be moved to the trash can for posterity.

I agree, joke levels can be hilarious if done well. They should be allowed, but moved immediately to the trash can in my opinion.

Not all joke levels deserve that spot. What about serious gameplay jokes?

Oh yeah, like Kyasarin's Adventure 2? Yeah, that might've been able to make it into a higher section, not sure exactly.

Joke levels should be allowed in some capacity though.

So what happened to my joke level, Block Bullshit? That was in the trash can, so why was it deleted and yet other joke levels are still there?

When I found it, it was on page 2 of the main forum still.

Did you delete it? If not, I can't find it there.
