I haven't yet divined the relationship between xda-devs and ppcgeeks, so maybe it's more Cain and Abel than Yin and Yang - but anyone here know why PPCGeeks is down?
Before it went offline the site started redirecting me to some torrent/porn malware site. It happened with every form link. Then it went offline. Then I came back to XDA and I no longer feel the need to make an abundance of waffles to fill the void.
All is well...for now.
It seemed to be redirecting earlier to a dupedb--quick searching on the name took me to a neowin's forum post about a similar hijacking they had.
awww such a shame, I guess douchey moderating eventually comes back to bite them!

similar to douchey irrelevant posting I'm sure. Thanks for contributing and proving the vast superiority of your maturity in contrast to ppcgeeks ... moving on and thanks to those who posted info.
It was a redirect to dupedb that was injected into their code. This can either be due to a vulnerability with the software versions they use on their server, compromised administrative credentials, or other stupid stuff.
My guess is that the site was taken offline in order to fix the problem.

Oh c'mon - you could still post it at lilrico's ... I mean, all the cool kids are doing it. You ARE one of the cool kids, right??? Anyone who follows your ROM is already hitting up your site directly in anticipation of said update.
Very strange, and it was my first dream in a long time, let alone ever dreaming of a phone or software lol
so in my dream i had an in-person discussion with NilsP about his ROM about how i think he should add the 5 latest apps to the transparent dropdown. No biggie, 10min convo
Now im warped a few days later and im at like a BBQ party, and i meet someone and start showing him my phone and a few ROMs i had on backup
I pull down the transparent dropdown and see some chrome looking skulls, with red glowy eyes ... 5 of them across the top of the dropdown where the apps would be!!
So i say wtf is this? Maybe i never really broke in NilsP's ROM and its just now initializing or something??
Now the phone reboots itself and its some chromed skull theme, and the 5 recent apps are in the dropdown!!
In my dream i was kicking myself trying to figure out how the hell this ROM all of a sudden had it! Or did NilsP find a way to hack into my phone and add the feature i begged him for??
Last thing i remember is being puzzled and stumped, then i woke up
stupid as hell, but thats it lol
go ahead, flame away haha

I'm curious, what possessed you to believe this was in any way related to android development and not general discussion??
I swear I was not in your dream and I did not touch your phone.

I think the moderation could use some work here. ROM threads inevitably devolve to the point of being useless.

Overground and the other mods do a good job here, for FREE! You volunteering to get criticized because of a few idiots?
EDIT: Let me search your posts to see what you've developed or improved, since you're posting in the development forum and criticizing.
EDIT2: I searched and found 7 threads. NONE of your posts volunteered crap to the community.

It's the truth. Just take a look at the number of off topic posts in this forum alone each day. There are the best devs on xda, but along with that comes some of the dumbest posts I've seen on any forum.

I usually ignore the dumb posts and the front page of this forum continually stays on topic about new gifts to the community. You take back that comment or we're done talking. You lumped a lot of people into that.
EDIT: LOL! I searched yours too. Found the nicest one was requesting a link to a kernel for MIUI. You really want to POST HERE? Seriously? You guys are really making me mad!

Grow a thicker skin. If your not one of the people posting these useless threads then it's not targeted towards you. You're looking in the wrong place if you want an apology.

Nobody is talking down to him. New users have to start somewhere, and pointing them in the direction of the forum dedicated to their device seems like a good idea.

Yes. I don't want to be that guy that tells you to use the search button, but I have to. Xda Admins are thread Nazis. Hopefully they don't give you to much crap. Here is the link. http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=trltetmo

Simply looking at the development forum as well as the general forum would have answered this question. It does not even need search button. Someone has already linked you, ,but there is also a cyanogenmod remix that is based specially of cynogenmod...along with many many modification lol. If you are in doubt about a cynogenmod build, always check their download site http://download.cyanogenmod.org and search for the specific device, in this case trltetmo...but just incase here it is http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=trltetmo
I always say do not put yourself in situation where xda users will question your intelligence lol As mention as well, xda users are thread nazis....and they will give you a lot of crap lol
