I think if we all put our heads together we could come up with a much more efficient and leak proof way to release the next game exploits. What about a referral only release in the future so no Sony guys register on your site. If you would like some outside the box ideas, feel free to contact me I would be willing to help in the discussion of future releases. If not no worries, do what you do best yo...

Dirt, one major problem. There will always be leaks. Even if we went through and figured out who was trustworthy and who should be excluded from the release, we have new people joining all the time. There will ALWAYS be leaks. If we distributed the files, those leaks would not only give Sony the name of the game to remove from the store but the exploit to begin work on patching the new kernel exploit. We could end up with a new OFW before the exploit release if it happened early in the release and, sorry, I have to say it, if Sam Jordam came back. As well as that, remember the Coldbird situation? Sam Jordam leaked useless encrypted files of a CFW (which we recently found out is still being worked on by other members of Team PRO) and Coldbird left scene. Dirt, releasing the files with the Ninja Release is just a disaster waiting to happen. I'm one of the first people to get the Ninja Release and there can be a long period between the start of a ninja release to the public release. If somebody had an account in that first tier and leaked it we could literally have a new firmware update that blocks the exploit out before the end of the release. I think the motive for Sony not to pull the game from the store when it gets leaked when it's an eCFW (besides the fact that the leak could be false, which didn't stop them with Mad Blocker Alpha) is that they don't have the kernel exploit. If they pull the game they're aware that we may well not release the kernel exploit for that game and simply release a usermode exploit for the people that got it (depending on how close to finishing the ninja release was). They know that we may well save the kernel exploit for the next firmware update on a new game so they will let the release finish and then swiftly remove the game, wait for the files and patch it in a new firmware update. This didn't count in the case of Mad Blocker Alpha as on 1.81 we released three usermode exploits on the same firmware, and as such, they already had the kernel exploit we were using. On that firmware, to our surprise, they didn't quickly patch it for the reason that they were working on 2.00, a firmware with some actual features! They can, and will, patch it quickly in the future and if we released the files with the exploit they could patch the kernel exploit before we even finished the ninja release!

P.S.
Sorry for the wall of text.
Also, no offence was intended, I was just giving reasons as to why that would not be a good idea.
Edit: Oh, Kamen. All the eCFW releases have happened through ninja releases. The recent Uno ninja release was for eCFW.
