Fanjita leaving the "sharp end" of the PSP scene

[Cloudhunter]

Via Fanjita's Rants

Fanjita of the Noobz team is stopping all exploit/hacking developments.

It's with much regret that I have to announce that I'm going to retire from the sharp end of the PSP homebrew scene. The betrayal of trust that preceded the Pandora release was extremely hurtful, and has left me unable to fully trust the people I'd previously enjoyed working so hard with. And so, I have had to decide to stop working on projects that require that level of trust.

Besides that, life continues to be very busy in the run up to fatherhood, and there are various non-PSP projects that I'd like to play with. Not to mention the fact that I'm tired of the continual pressure and idiocy of the PSP scene - long gone are the fun days of pioneering amongst like minds, in a mutually supportive and gentlemanly environment.

The Pandora Battery therefore marks my last major PSP project. I expect that Team C+D and Noobz will continue to release stuff without me, and I still hope to finish up some of the non-exploit projects that I'd been working on (Installotron, piKey etc.).

It was a fun ride while it lasted.

It's a sad loss to the scene - Good luck Fanjita, with fatherhood and whatever you persue in life

This is a servere blow to the Homebrew scene not only in terms of development but also it's honour.

I think that scene has very much been assosociated with disrespect , leaks , idiot ebay sellers etc.

Fanjita was determined to contribute to a legal and honest Homebrew scene so I can fully understand why he made his decision.

Hope you have second thoughts and don't quit , because not everyone in the Scene is like you may think , good luck with all your other non-PSP projects fatherhood,life all the real important things.

This is Goodbye to another Homebrew Legend huh...

Fanjita, THANK YOU! I don't really know what else to say. You deserve all the praise in the world and so many people owe you so much gratitude.

You have helped shape the positive side of the scene to what it is today and and I hope you leave a lasting legacy so that the scene never dies.

I also wish for a day when you will perhaps possibly return. Maybe if some exciting stuff starts happening in the PSP Slim homebrew scene.

And in closing, I must say that the betrayal shown to cause this is really pathetic. The stupidity shown by some people just amazes me.

Thanks again Fanjita, Best luck in life, and with your family.
