Or just ask me, I mean I'm only helpin to write a guide on it heh... :
1.) Make your own games, FSODX will only happen if you are frosen in between the double save. FSODX is instant corruption. By this logic then, we know that if we make our own games no one is in the game to FSODX us when we enter and the double save occurs.
2.) Such Items as the Red ring, Dark bridge, Dark meteor and Dark flow are a sure sign of a hacker, also check their mag is not over level 200!
3.) The following: Manaknayda, FaNaTiC, Ev!L_Dr@G0N, Kamui Chan
Are all known FSODers
4.) Don't hang out in US ships, especially Deneb and Vega. Try to avoid EU ships as well, they can be a gamble. Playing with JP users isn't hard, just use symbol chat and I think you will find they are much better players anyway wink.gif.
5.) If you do get a corruption, delete your Guild Card file first, and your Character file last. This has saved me once before.
6.) If you are in a game an you get a regular FSOD, you will loose all un equipped and un banked items and meseta. So try to only carry one mag, weapon etc (much easier for forces).
If you are somewhere like the lobby, or not in a game, you will only lose un-banked meseta.
You may be hit by WS (word Select) FSOD if you or the FSODer is entering anywhere. If you enter a lobby, an FSODer there may hit you AS YOU ARRIVE. Alternatively, if you are in a game, they may swoop down and FSOD you. If you eneter the game,most likely it will be FSODX for you!
7.) If you have just changed areas on Pioneer 2, where the music is subject to change, (e.g. Hospital to main P2) and your disc isn't in great condition the screen may go black (possibly with the music still playing) also, If you are porting (telipipe, next area, boss etc.) then this may happen (the telipipe noise will continue). This is called BSOD. Simply open and close your disc cover and it will be fixed.
NOTE: If you get a BSOD online then as you fix the problem you will lose game-sync and will most likely DC.
8.) If everyone stops moving but you, and when you try to chat nothing happens, then you are most likely about to DC (or disconnect). This will not harm your game, but you may as well quit straight off to save some time wink.gif
Alternatively, there may be a long pause (for example in a boss sequence) and you may re-sync with the others.

AR codes are limited and if you are using the PAL version they will not help much. Stick to my guidelines to be safer online.
