| The Special Task Force was put together in order to minimize the damage caused by certain members of the Final Fantasy XI community and to improve it as a whole - for this reason, the team is committed to monitoring its status on a daily basis. Here are some of the problems within the community which we have been focusing our attention upon. |
| |
| We will also give you information on our current and future activities following the formation of the Special Task Force in Sept, 2006. |
| |
| Certain monsters are always being hoarded, we never get our chance. |
| |
| Certain Notorious Monsters (hereto after referred to as NM) within Tu'Lia and Upper Delkufutt's Tower which drop valuable items are attracting certain groups that camp in spawn spots. |
| |
| These groups use illegal means to obtain rights on the NM, unfairly preventing other players from engaging with them. These groups have also been observed chasing other players away from these and other areas. |

| [Special Task Force] |
| |
| We have been actively pursuing players who use illegal means to camp NM since October 2006. |
| |
| However, many such players would simply create a new account, level up their character and continue with the activities which got them banned in the first place. The habitual mass exclusions that were taking place were losing their effect, so we decided to increase the frequency of these. This resulted in the increase in the number of groups of players that no longer directly violate the rules, but would still camp on certain areas, preventing other players from enjoying the game. For this reason, we are directly targeting these problem groups and we plan to continue to take action against them on a monthly basis. |
