well i hate to be the one to point the finger but i know your rep Paul and that 200 HAD to be an ARed 200 so no use getting mad over that. Secondly, I don't mind bein proven wrong, especially if it works, however, bert I seriously doubt that any of these people did that stuff with the transfers so....oh and gotien I have dealt with a lot of corruption online (I've had it happen to me twice and I've seen countless kids corrupt). From my experience, here's what you can do to help prevent yourself from corrupting:
1) stay in an empty, or virtually empty, lobby. I prefer going to lobby 13 in any ship I go to. The reason this helps is the server is taking you from a light server and it puts no load on the system or the server that might contribute to you freezing while saving when you join a game (not to mention you won't FSOD when going back out into a lobby).
2) Always make your own games. The chances of freezing while saving if you make the game is 0. The more people that are in the game already, the higher the chance of corruption.
3) This one is for you who are already in a game and it is corteous to help others from getting corrupted. DO NOT continually use symbol chats and/or drop many items on the ground. This loads the server with a lot of work and when somebody joins into that, the chance is really high that they will corrupt. So if you don't do that to people, they won't do it to you.
Thats about all I've picked up in my travels.

PSO is a game of my past but those I came in contact with are still a part of me.
Strength comes not from the size of your muscles, but the depth of your heart, and the cause you're defending with it.
