Thank you for your understanding and patience.

[Date & Time]

* Maintenance completion time may be subject to change.

[Affected Services]
FINAL FANTASY XI

* The World Transfer Service will be unavailable starting 30 minutes before the maintenance. Please wait until after the maintenance is completed before attempting to use these services.

* Maintenance operations will delete any reservations for Pankration matches and Maze Tabulae registered to NPC Duplidoc for Moblin Maze Mongers. Players who are scheduled to participate in Pankration matches, those who will enter Assault, Salvage or Einherjar areas, or those who will participate in Dynamis or Limbus at the time of the maintenance, we ask that you please wait until maintenance is complete before engaging in these activities.

what they break this time

[mdkuser]

a 2 hour emergency maintenance during JP prime time on a week end. I've never seen this. They must have done something terrible!

My thoughts exactly. I saw "emergency maint" and instantly thought "oh well, another Monday dynamis cancelled", then saw it was today, during JP prime, and wondered just how badly something had broke.

[Aerides]

It's not monday, it's today, in like 37 mins. 7:30 EDT - 9:30.

This maint for bug something like dupe.
use Portaufurnace next to Maw
then start synergy>stop synergy then use Maw
you will get Black Abyssite.

[Aevis]

Hahaha whaaaat? That's...strange o.O

[Uzor]

so THAT'S how the Japanese have been able to get every drop imaginable from Yilbegan.

So NA and EU duping = mass banning, JP duping = slap on the wrist in the form of emergency maintenance during JP prime time on a weekend.

SE: Bad JP! Bad! No cheat! BAD!

This is SE... haven't we come to expect this kind of stuff?

Has there ever been 1 time SE has not fucked something up?

[Not Kuno]

Why do I always find out this stuff after they patch it.

Ditto, although it's probably for the best.
(stupid Salvage....)

Granted though, I would love to hear how the fuck this bug triggers because this one is really up there on the wtf meter compared to some of the other stuff we've had fixed in the past. Extremely stupid luck to have come across that.

[NynJa]

Some bans better come out of this since this is clearly duping on the level of Salvage bans...

[Draylo]

Those tricky JP.

I was going to say CoP, but then I remembered they dumbed it down.
