WARNING!!!

[HabarNam]

Hello fellow players I just wanted to warn you about this bug, of course we will have the GM service but better prevent than be sorry ^^;

As announced on the official FINAL FANTASY XIV Forums, we have identified an issue wherein materia attached to a player’s equipment may get lost when the server goes down for maintenance work. If you notice that your materia is missing after the conclusion of this maintenance, please place a GM call. A GM will conduct an investigation and provide maximum support to restore your materia. You can avoid running into this issue by equipping the item which the materia is attached to or storing it on a retainer before the maintenance starts.

I'll just loose mine so I can watch a GM breaking loads of double melds, with fraps running so I can caption each break with GM FAIL!!!

Where is the official post? I see the lodestone note about it, which says they announced this on the forums, but I don't see the post on the forums.

Also.. seriously SE? I know people are grabbing their torches and pitchforks about getting the patch ASAP, but this seems like a pretty big bug to just close your eyes and cover your ears while pressing the "update now?" button.

There is no post on the forums, its all on that one announcement.

I'm thinking they've found the likeliness of this bug to happen is very low and didn't want to make a big deal about it... Or it's the opposite and they want to hide it.
