Sinfuliphone wants me to apologize for "lying" to people about their repo. Uh huh. I'm not sure if I'm getting trolled, or their moderators actually believe their admin's feeble attempt at PR. I guess I have some time to blow right now anyway.

1) Where's the credit on all three of your AppSync packages? We created those patches. Hell, if you install the AppSync for 4.0+ package from their repository, you'll notice Sinfuliphone forgot to remove the note I left in the patchsync binary which literally says I created the patch. Oops!

2) What the hell is with "SiNfuLCrack"?

It is a complete and total ripoff of Crackulous. Sinful obtained Crackulous from our repository (which you can get yourself to see), edited the strings inside the binary (and the images) to show their website, and took all of the credit for developing it. Their users lapped it up like it was original content. Where's the source code, fellas? Oh right, it's in docmorelli's github repo.

If I'm not mistaken, sinful also ripped off @poedgirl's bash script for cracking apps and put their name on that as well. It was a long time ago, but poedgirl was so pissed off about the whole deal she didn't even *bother* working on it anymore. Whenever we posted in their forums asking them to have some respect and credit people, we just got our posts removed or completely banned from the forum.

3) I'm sorry that the moderators at Sinfuliphone actually believe their admin's bullshit, but yes, their repository's packages block our packages. I just downloaded the Packages.bz2 file to look myself:

Conflicts: com.install0us.app, com.hackulo.us.installous
Replaces: com.install0us.app, com.hackulo.us.installous

They even put these conflict directives on packages which don't conflict with our software. install0us and Installous were completely separate packages and could co-exist on the device, yet they did this with that package as well.

Putting "Replaces" or "Provides" directives on packages also forces the user to install Installous from their repository if you have both repositories added.

4) The fact I have to waste my time to demonstrate that they have manipulated their own users is humiliating and pathetic.
