Thanks Nelson, I just checked it out. The flash browser is faster than the ruffle emulation on a standard browser.
I'm keeping it even if blockoban is the only page I use it .

  I used Puffin, but now that I'm using the Chrome app, Ruffle is faster than this. nice job on jp

  @john96: you don't have to install anything, the Ruffle emulator is already installed on the BL site. It means that you only have to start your browser (Edge, Chrome, ...) and open the BL page. Everything should work as in the past, excepted some bugs already existing with Pale Moon and maybe before.

@patio09: it's still impossible to comment on newer levels. Before, when a level was not commented, it was written "No messages.", now it is written "Unknown subject ()!". This bug is really annoying, because comments related to a level will be spread in the BB forum and it will be impossible to find then after a while.
There are other problems:
- The same problem affects the inbox of new members like john96 and PuzzleFan, they don't accept PMs and the inbox shows the same error message.
- For a recently created level pack or forum, it is impossible to post a comment (same error). Above the comment window, it is written "Field 'cacheedited' doesn't have a default value". Because of that problem, there is no interest to create a new pack because nobody will be able to post a comment on it.

  @patio09: I'm not sure why but I think that BL can no longer create new forums, therefore no new comment threads and so we cannot comment on new levels. I don't exactly know if that will get resolved, or even if JP can fix that.

  Where can you install this Ruffle emulator? I'm curious as to if it's better than the Pale Moon application.

  I'm using flash browser and it works fine on the old site.
Only thing: it is impossible to create comments on newer levels.

  @jp: happy to see you back on your site. It's very nice to be able to play the games on any browser without having to install the Ruffle extension.

Just a correction to Chris's message, I was appointed admin for BB and BB2 in 2022 and obviously not in November 2026 :) These games are my favorites and I am happy to bring my contribution to maintain the site and the games alive.

@Chris: Ruffle is a Flash emulator that replaces the Flash Player, it allows to run Flash applications on any operating system and browser. It’s a much better solution than using Pale Moon and a very old Flash Player.

  Would Ruffle be a better place to transfer everything from BL? If so, how would you proceed with that?

  I'm here because I'm trying to move the site into a new server with modern environment. So I had to modify the code of the site again. I don't think I will have time to do much more, but you never know. This Ruffle thing is just amazing, I'll try to dig into it a bit.

  Yes, I was the admin from 2019-November 2022, but I have to confess that I abused my admin powers to cheat. They gave me several chances but I kept doing it until GIS finally demoted me. I got to carried away with the number of levels I solved. So that was wrong, they deletd the scores from the levels I cheated on.

@nelson90 is the new admin now. GIS appoointed him November 29, 2026. Me, John, Puzzlefan, Ryan123, pig, suhangha and CG52, magic7 and YGG4 have made a bunch of levels from 2022-now. That's what's been going on. I don't think I've seen you since into almost 2023.

How have things been going? Are you going to add more officials?

  There are almost 14000 accepted levels that is huge. Is there an active admin moderating the levels ?

  Thanks Ryan for fixing your level White Angles 8, it is fine now. I reset the scores and accepted the level.

  I adjusted a couple things Nelson in my White Angles 8 level, take a look and see what you think of my new changes. Is it acceptable now? I had to retake the thumbnail and make sure it was not stretched.

You might better delete our scores as the level has been changed or you can reset them. It's your call.

  @nelson90: You're welcome, did you receive my e-mail? I sent it a while ago.

  Thanks again Chris for your fast reaction, everything is fine now. Level accepted.

  Ok, I just uploaded the fixed version. Let me know if you see it on your end.

  Thanks Chris, but you forgot to retake the thumbnail. Please do it and I will accept the level.

  @nelson90: I corrected my "Blue-White 57" level. I will pay more close attention from now on. Have been taking care of my mom who has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer for a year and a half. So it's been a hard struggle the past 18 months. I'll explain more details at a later time.

  @Ryan123: in your level White Angles 8, there is a block with an unuseful link. Either you remove the link, or you add the same link to another block.

  @Chris: I put level Blue-White 57 to be edited and reset the scores.

  @nelson90: I just noticed something when I was scrolling through old levels to try to get the best score possible, in my "Blue-White 57" level, there are only blue blocks and no whites so I need to re-do it and correct the level and add white blocks. Sorry, you'll have to reset the scores when I'm finished. And I'll have to change the category to easy as it may be a little more difficult.

  Well, it doesn't look too bad, but it requires slow thinking and careful planning to find a strategic score.

  The level was finished but I was waiting for ssi2079 to fix the title. Since the level Road Wheel is nice and challenging, I decided to do it for him and to accept the level.

  Haven't played this game in almost a whole month. Nice to see a familiar face back, @ssi2079. Is his level finished yet? I'd like to try it out.

  @nelson90: I have another request for you. When you have time, can you check it please? Thank you.

  Nice to see you back making some levels, ssi2079. It's been a long time since I've seen one from you. Can't wait to try it out.

  @ssi2079: Welcome back! Happy to see you back in the game. I saw that you submitted a level that seems quite fine to me, and probably very hard. Just a small detail, the titles have to be capitalized. Please rename it "Road Wheel"and I will accept it.

  Thanks Chris, I changed the titles of your 3 levels to "Blue Latin Cross 1-3".

Meanwhile, I discovered that the same problem was happening for the "Red Cross" series:
- Chris: "A Red Cross", "Red Cross I" and "Red Cross II".
- John: "Red Cross " and "Red Cross 2", with again an extra space for "Red Cross "
- OMG: "Red Cross".
I will rename your levels "Red Latin Cross 1-3" and John's level "Red Cross 1".

It is the same for "Yellow Cross":
- Chris: "Yellow Cross"
- John: ""Yellow Cross"", ""Yellow Cross" 2" and "Yellow Cross 3"
I will rename your level "Yellow Latin Cross" and John's levels "Yellow Cross 1-3".

  Ok, that's a better idea. Can you change them according to what titles you think are proper?

  Chris, I don't think that re-creating the 3 levels is a good idea. All of them are nice and the 2 crosses don't have the same shape at all. Yours is a Latin cross representing the cross of Jesus, while that of John is a Greek cross.

I think it would be better to keep the levels and to only change the titles of some of them. I will do it if you agree.
