This week�s blog of the week is not about gear, or earning XP. This week we feature a site about paper craft. You may be wondering what exactly that is, well paper craft is the art of taking an image breaking it down to parts and printing it out on paper. Once that is done you put the pieces together to make a 3d model out of paper. The site we are featuring today features Final Fantasy XI paper craft. It�s a very interesting way to show off your love for Final Fantasy XI, whether it�s a cardian, a mandragora, or even a mini airship for your home away from mog. There are some very fascinating things to be made so please enjoy and be sure to check out this week�s Blog of the week: Kaizo Papercraft
We have another brand new poll today. As this week marks the 5 year mark since the game traveled over seas to the North American market; Our poll focuses on time, when did you first start playing? It�s a time to look back over the years and think about past adventures and old friends. This is also a time for looking forward setting new goals and doing new things with friends. Be sure to swing by our forums and let us know about your past favourite adventures, or even your plans for the future.
RMT have just been busted while trying to transfer $38 million in laundered money from Korea to China. The foreign affairs bureau of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency stated:
"We arrested two individuals, including the ring leader who is a 37-year-old man named �Jeong.� Jeong�s ring purchased game money in China between May last year and last month, then cashed the money through domestic game item brokerages."
It is reported that the money was obtained in China through the use of cheap labor and computer viruses. With account theft and RMT still ruining game play for many MMO subscribers, it�s glad to see that they�re getting some real world justice instead of just getting their accounts banned.

There are numerous ways to make money within the End Game scene in FFXI. Of course the more popular is people buying the Abjurations or items from the linkshell that just killed a HNM of sorts. But that is not where I am heading towards in this article. This is going to be a 2 part article to include ways End Game can make money through several different methods. The two methods I will discuss are the ENM scene and the KSNM scene. This article is going to touch base first on KSNM, Primarily the KS99 battles.
Recently we have been tossing around the idea of featuring Mission/ quest cut scenes. It would be a chance for people to replay videos they have seen or even take a sneak peek at what�s to come.
