wrong, I have had several FSOD in-game; like I already said, lose a very rare weapon that you spent months hunting, and come back (not you personally, decs), I have some back-ups (Sange & Yasha, Lavis Cannon, NUG2000-Bazooka, etc.), I'm still a legit freak >=\

Personally, I wouldnt dupe items for any reason however, the reason for that is that losing any of my items just gives me an excuse to run through the game again killing stuff :evil: .
I'm not saddistic, it just uhhh...adds longevity to the game. :ponder:
This said, I would not penalise anyone for wanting to make certain that they werent going to lose items to FSOD or worse. I dont see the point in getting upset at people for wanting to be safe.

I'm the kinda guy who saves his game every few minutes cuz I HATE losing progress, so I would dupe all my good stuff just to be on the safe side. However, I wouldn't massively dupe stuff and start handing it out to whoever wants it. There's no fun in the game if you dont earn anything you get.

Cheating with PSO just takes the fun of finding a rare away.

That question should be added to the FAQ. What is FSOD? lol Child, don't ask, or ask somewhere else.
I don't like duping, but I CAN'T FIND ANY GOOD RARES ON MY OWN!!! (Oran sucks) I have to tread online, so how do I know it's legit?

Hi! I recently found my way back here and was feeling nostalgic. On the off chance that someone comes by here and remembers me, feel free to shoot me a line over on twitter.

It isn't
If you really want to be legit then I wouldn't trade unless you know the person
very well.

I lost tons of stuff from fsod; agito, delsaber's buster, mags, addslots, proto regene gears, delsaber shield, red saber...etc. and i've never even considered turning illegit because of it. I simply got back to the game and legitimately got it all back. Not only does it give the game even more longevity than it normally has but it also gained me some extra experience. If I can go through that without turning illegit (And I know that many other players have went through the same, and worse, without turning illegit) then why is it that some players out there are so quick to cheat?
Forget this, after thinking about it for a while i dont feel this way anymore.
I still have issues with HACKING the game.
But duping...
there are too many factors to take into account to condemn duping completely and there is also no point in going online if you dont make the most of it (ie.trading) so i probably have some dupes now anyway.
By the by, was there ever any proof that duped items affect the frequency of FSOD? If there wasnt then what is the point in the aptly named "uber-legits" kicking people out of online games just cause they own dupes? Thats not being safe, thats being downright nasty.
