Sad to see, but the administrator Alek of the Dark-Alex.org forums has decided for the better. To close the forums, after a year of service to the PSP community. Its sad to see, I certainly hope Dark Alex hasn’t quit for good either, as some have rumoured he might have…I guess time will tell if he has.
Here’s the official post from Alek on the forum closure.
Within the following announcement, we announce the closure of Dark-AleX.org forum, after one year of working, more than 50,000 users, more than
170,000 messages, and more than 15,000 threads. With those statistics, that have gone generally within more than 450 messages, 40 threads and 130
new users per day, we are more than just satisfied about the results and about what we have reached.There are many reasons. The forum, by itself, has been a challenge. A challenge that, without any doubt, has exceeded all of our expectatives, and
a challenge that now, after all that we have been through, we find ourselves happy and proud of having gone this far. However, its, professionally
speaking, a moment for evolving and taking ourselves a little time for relax and so we can study whats next.Since the beginning, the people’ answer has been something amazing and indescribable, something that we won’t have enough grateful words, and that
fills us of satisfaction. This support has been so huge that we have found ourselves overwhelmed, and when we wanted to give the deserved service
for each user, we have gone into problems and we have got to take this hard but consistent decition; that, the same way as we wield a smile when all
this was starting, this last decition makes us sad, but we know that is the best choice at the moment.Again, thanks to all, to our moderators, to our friends, to our old and new partners, to the English Zone and their help to this project, and everyone
of you that have helped us on any terms.Lastly, if any user is interested on recovering any part or any thread of the forum, please contact with the following e-mail: alek@dark-alex.org
so we can deliver what you need.And remember, you always have to your disposal our IRC as a place in where you can chat, you can laugh with us, and as a cool reason to make a reunion
and remember old times, as after all this is not a “goodbye”, but a “cya”![]()
Sincerely,
Admin and Webmaster of Dark-AleX.org

This is really a sad news to all of us. So no more CFW m33 release? What did they mean by this:
“However, its, professionally speaking, a moment for evolving and taking ourselves a little time for

Study what next? Any way I’m happy I got my CFW 5.0 m33-6. Thanks DA!

“So no more CFW m33 release? ”
I think 5.00 m33-6 was the last.
August 28, 2009 at 5:02 am
how are we going to play new games on 5.55 is there going to be gen
August 28, 2009 at 5:30 am
maybe their just going to a LONG break for now to focus on thier own private life….
August 28, 2009 at 5:52 am
thank you for making all my psp’s better even that one that got stolen. and for me its more than cfw its a way
to fight back against constantly being ripped off. and im shur sony has had to hire more people aswell. thank you for all for your hard work
August 28, 2009 at 5:54 am
what the -?
Dark Alex quit because he cant make a new m33.
too bad for him. but its worse now that
the forum is gone.
lets just hope that GEN or MHU will have a ’speedhack’ in their future releases.

You are an idiot, have you no idea what dark_alex has done for psp CFW.. and he decides to take a while off and you have the nerve to say he just cant do it.. i honestly dont believe he deserves that for all he done, i mean hes not making any money off of this in the first place i would take a break to. Thank you dark_alex for everything you’ve done. i hope to see more of your work around.
August 28, 2009 at 7:12 am
man so no more psp go hacks i ws hoping to get psp go…………oh well
August 28, 2009 at 7:26 am
its sad that there will be no more dark-alex projects. hope someone would continue what he has done. in some forums/websites, they say that SONY paid Dark-Alex to stop hacking the psp. I hope its not true…
August 28, 2009 at 7:47 am
I heard that as well, but I doubt Sony would really have paid him to stop working on PSP hacking? Got him to sign an agreement that he would ceis and desist all PSP hacking activities. Sounds a bit too far fetched…
September 21, 2009 at 10:57 pm
if that was true, he could just make another screen name and continue his work while getting paid by sony. lol.. its more likely they offered him a job increasing the psp’s security. if thats true i dont believe we will be seeing anymore exploits. he could prbly-if he really tried- make it so the magic memory stick and pandora battery trick doesnt work anymore too

Strangely enough, this is what it says on the PSPWiki:
“The forums are closed down due to expenses. Dark-Alex isn’t leaving the scene or forgetting about us. So please don’t have the “mental image” that he’s ditched us for good. The forums are only down, the rest of the network isn’t. If you have any issues, feel free to contact the staff throughout the network. ~~ “
August 28, 2009 at 10:44 am
maybe they’re just using that as an alibi. so maybe thats why there’s no news about a new m33 on the works.
Dark Alex may have been paid or being threated by Sony. lets just wait til someone comes with a new CFW better than GEN or MHU.
and in my opinion, games that will be release next year will need a 5.55/5.70 or higher firmware.
August 28, 2009 at 8:53 am
forumotion.com Maybe try making a new forum?
August 28, 2009 at 9:34 am

August 28, 2009 at 11:26 pm
I heard that Dark_alex will be arrested if he will continue to hack…i don’t really know…I just heard it at my friends…Dark_alex !!!!! =((
( =(
August 28, 2009 at 11:29 pm
Well, it came out true. Dark_Alex will be arrested if he hacks again. My friends said it(addicted friends
). Well, his not sure if arrested or Dark_alex will just pay a big amount of money.
August 29, 2009 at 8:30 pm
Are you some sort of f^cking retard? The CFW he releases are not illegal in any way, if they were he would have had charges filed against him long ago. Just because dark-alex.org is gone doesn’t mean that D_A himself is gone, it in reality wasn’t really his site, it was the webmaster ALEKs website. SnlpErGuY, you and your friends are a bunch of f^cking fools!
August 30, 2009 at 11:55 pm
Well, I thought there was to many searches named Alex. How would I know if it was him. And it was about hacking. NEver knew that there was to many Alex that are hacking.
August 28, 2009 at 11:37 pm
Search at google : Will Dark Alex will be arrested? It come out that it’s true. He’ll be arrested.
August 29, 2009 at 5:25 pm
