TehSkeen Webmaster in hospital after suicide attempt (misc)

Earlier this morning we’ve spotted the currently first news item on TehSkeen. Brakken mentioned to take an overdose of certain tablets and he seems to be gone since then.

Obviously several people tried to get ahold of him, without success. Some called the police and regarding one response in the thread, they found him and brought him to hospital.

All this could be a hoax, due to a hacked account, but it could also be true, as he been talking about “bad life” a lot recently and also did not seem to care about himself anymore, without going into details.

TehSkeen, next to other sites, is a great source for homebrew news and related things, so having the webmaster brakken lost, would be also a bad thing for the community. May people like or dislike his style, is not the question right now.

Time will tell what happend!

Good luck, wherever you are, brakken!

Maintenance Mode Off (misc)

Dear visitors,

some of you out there might have recognized our almost two day long downtime.

Unfortunatly one of our newer software packs were in need of the latest kernel, so we had no chance to avoid the update. Updating a running operating system isn’t really great, but for now almost all “visible” and “technical” issues should be resolved.

Beside fresh software PDRoms has recieved minor bugfixes, which probably wont even be recognized, but were really necessary 🙂 If you find any malfunction, please let us know by contacting us (link below).

Thanks for comming back 😉
Kojote, kedo & celeth

PS: PDRoms is having free ad slots, so if you run a company and if you are interested, let us know. You’ll be helping us in paying the server and domain fees. Almost any kind of offers are discussable – instead of money we could also take items 😉
