  I mean honestly - I don't know if there would be anyone able/willing to administrate as when Chris was added 3 years ago he was the best choice, and unfortunately - if anything has changed - fewer players play this now and so there are fewer choices.

I am not an authority in this game - and I think you should speak to GIS or Elizea about it. My opinion would be to promote somebody else who I trusted as a balance, but as far as I am aware, the site admins want to limit the people who can alter levels as much as possible - even stopping people being trusted to limit it as much as possible (to prevent this type of thing I'd guess).

I am unsure whether you can be trusted again - it's not easy considering this is the third time. I would possibly be willing to trust you again but so long as you were sincere and never edited another old level again - though I'm conflicted as again this isn't the first or even second time.

But again, this is something you will have to speak to GIS or Elizea about this.

  @Patio09, ok i'll mark that particular level pink to be edited later. I posted on some of the levels I edited.

Well I do have a confession, yes I edited 15-20 old levels in order to make them easier for me to solve and then I restored them back to the way they were. I did go back and delete a few of my scores because I did not faithfully solve them. I am sorry about this. I really want to continue to be the best admin I can here and solve each level faithfully like the rest of you have.

I'm making a pack of the levels that I have remaining. It is not finished yet that way I don't have to comment on each level I am stuck on. You all can see what I have left. I hope GIS/Elizea don't get mad about this, they told me 2-3 times not to do this. Can someone please talk to them about this issue? Nelson, CG, anyone? I think greyanna saw me do it too, she PM'd me with another account saying I better stop editing old levels.

Look guys I promise not to edit anymore old levels. Please don't revoke my admin powers!! I'm talking to GIS/Elizea if they see this. I hope no one thinks bad of me. I regret doing this in the first place. I created this situation.

  Since we can't write comments to the new levels anymore I have to use the general post.

  Well here is my point of view for it, maybe GIS/Elizea should give him one more chance but we are going to have to keep an eye on this. Meaning that we need to monitor each member's page. Apparently when he alters levels like this, he scrambles and accepts 40-50 new levels so we won't see it which is wrong. Idk, should we get a new admin? If he hasn't learned by now then I don't know if he should be messing with the game.

But who would be willing to take his place if he does get his privileges revoked? I can't believe what Chris is doing. I thought he was trustworthy years ago but apparently not. This is setting a bad example for BL.

  Like john96, I was surprised to see new levels created by Murat, allyally and others (inactive for a very long time). Looking closer, I saw in the logs that Chris had made 4 updates:
- chris3000. Evaluated level. Blue, accepted. 6 hours ago
- chris3000. Evaluated level. Grey, to be evaluated. 6 hours ago
- chris3000. Updated level. 6 hours ago
- chris3000. Updated level. 6 hours ago
Since there is no valid reason to update a very old level, I have the feeling that Chris is very likely cheating again. At the first change, he simplifies the level in order to be able to solve it, then he restores it.
Besides, I don't understand why he turned the level Grey then Blue again, because it has for consequence to place it at the beginning of the accepted levels, which makes the modifications even more visible.
Chris has already promised twice not to do these bad practices again, can we still believe him? What do you think?

  @john96 - if you click on the '[More]' link for a level which says that it's updated - it displays a log of the updates, and who changed it. This time it was Chris.

@PuzzleFan - you need to understand all of the different tricks for this game - it is definitely a very technical game given how simple it is. Looking at your first level - it is pretty fun, but it is very large and has a lot of empty space which isn't really part of the puzzle. I do like how the three blocks depend on each other - so its overall a fun kids level.

I would say your levels shouldn't be titled stuff like 'My First Level' - as it doesn't really tell you much about the content of the level. It seems like you got a good aspect ratio for the thumbnail but in case you didn't know holding shift whilst taking your thumbnail makes it easier to get a 1:1 ratio.

All of that being said - it's a pretty good first level! I rated 5/5!

  Hey! Who updated the old levels at the bottom of the page! I noticed it when I logged on this morning. Someone better check this, I hope the site isn't getting hacked!? And I noticed on page 1-2 in the accepted levels page that some of the old appeared there as well. Did Chris do this?

  Hello Blockoban community! I finally joined BL today, I introduced myself in the main forum, (see my post in Introduce Yourself).

So can someone explain how this game works and what are the rules/tricks needed to master each level. I submitted my first level this morning. I will need help/assistance on certain levels or while designing my own creations.

  I sent you a PM nelson, can you check it today?

  Yeah, signs of the wesbite no longer being maintained, heh.
I'm always available in the chat located on the bottom right corner of the Bonuslevel logo.
Either way, I have addressed your concern.

  @john96: you sent me a PM, but I couldn't answer you because your inbox is probably bad configured and doesn't accept any message. I would suggest to chat by mail. If you agree, please send me a message with your mail address. Indeed, I will never communicate it to anybody.

  Hey, chris. Why are you updating the categories of the old levels now? If you have been admin for almost 3 years why is it that big of a deal to you know. Honestly you really shouldn't mess with any of the old levels unless you have a valid reason. No one is perfect at picking categories, if it bothers you then just don't solve the hard ones. All you're doing is adding more stress/work to your life. If I find a level real hard I just don't do it. Simple as that!

I'm not saying you're a bad admin but the other admins didn't do this and complain about it. I'm sure many people will be supicious of this.

  Hey, what is all the commotion about! I think chris is doing a great job being an admin. See I found this site a couple years ago but I never registered until recently. It's really a cool community with a bunch of fun, interesting games. I am originally from Europe, I live in Iceland.

  Look the thumbnail has to best represent the level. The other one was in the wrong area. I just fixed it!

16 official levels now. All levels are great. I must say I'm a big fan of Psychotronic's levels (thx Psycho). When a level is "only" accepted, it doesn't mean it will not be official one day, it's just I'm not sure for now.
