I got a Critical Ring about 15 minutes before the SC. Luckily didn't lose it. I did lose two levels on my Dual Blade, but I don't care seeing that some people lost ALL of their main character equips and worse. People lost billions of mesos and this goes completely unannounced, wow...
Edit: Been discussing with guildmates, this actually sounds plausible... from now on, 4 days before any server check (3 is okay, 4 just to be sure) don't trade items, don't do anything, don't even login to your account. When the patch is done, don't login until 24 hours have passed. Seems the only safe way to play now. Specially dangerous times to play are 48 hours before a patch and the first 24 hours after.
