Mauifrog's Rebuttal
On April 14, 2011 it appears a well known Wiihacks.com associate and author of Wii modification and homebrew related installation guides attempted to remove this wiki article. Although it cannot be confirmed it is the same Mauifrog that is associated with Wiihacks.com, it is very likely.
Mauifrog has written many useful guides for Wii modification (softmod) and related topics. This individuals work is well respected. Mauifrog is not considered part of what's wrong with Wiihacks.com.
Mauifrog should not attempt to suppress opposing opinions of the site Wiihacks.com. Oppression is contrary to freedom of speech. Perhaps Mauifrog should focus on addressing some of the serious problems with Wiihacks.com, and thus serving to correct them should result in more favorable discussions here and through the web community among the growing number of Wiihacks.com critics.
Mauifrog shared the WiiHacks General Rules and Guidelines posted on this Wiki and it remains available for visitors to read. It remains up in the hopes that the people running and moderating Wiihacks.com take the initiative to read the rules for themselves and clean their site up, including the dismissal of corrupt moderators.
