iirc, Reason for salvage bans was because SE addressed the issue and people did it anyway. For like, a year. And did it multiple times with Einherjar/Sandworm/Nyzul, etc. But I quit during that time :( Or I'd have been banned to! D:

How exactly did you dupe things? .-. I hear people talking about this all the time and how some people I know got their previous account banned because of it, but I've never actually heard of the process that goes into duping items.

I know it would boil down to only a few cents per account ... but at what point do the players have a legitimate gripe against S-E for billing us for a day that they do maintenance all/most of the day?

Honest question.

Think it had something to do with the Dbox system. But ya people are saying that Chars will be banned for curing and exploiting their *** up. The whole dupe gear thing was warned by them and people still did it.

Have an alliance of 3 parties. Disband alliance. 3 treasure pools with the same loot.

For those interested, my GUI .DAT modification "XI View" has been updated to reflect this patch. You can find it here.

There's probably some form of liability release for the downtime on the Terms of Service somewhere.

People would fight a NM in Nyzul as a party, but split into multiple parties before the killshot. For whatever reason, multiple "duplicate" loot pools were generated.
Never got to try this myself ... for whatever reason "duping" never caught on on Ramuh server. But, this is what I heard about how "duping" was done.

The real reason that maintenance is extended is that the Devs were having too much fun running around their test servers one-shotting undead NMs to actually fix it.

Now, they've had their fill, and are actually going to work on it.

Alas taking advantage of said mistakes is against the rules.

That said, I highly doubt they'll ban anyone.

Split into multiple parties before kill-***, and it generated multiple loot-pools with items that dropped. I'm unsure how it worked for Einherjar, but I had a few friends banned for doing in it their LS. (Obviously would be easy to do with odin, I think D:)

they didn't ban people who used the salvage dupe. they banned people who used the salvage dupe AFTER they released a statement saying they knew about it and needed time to fix it. they said they would ban you if you duped again after the announcement. they fixed this really fast. nothing is gonna happen.
