final fantasy xi cheats and exploits?

Archived from groups: alt.games.final-fantasy.rpg (More info?)

My friend was over the other day, and I showed him
http://www.exploitsrus.com/ffxi.html It is a site with cheats, bugs,
dupes, etc for final fantasy xi. He told me it was against the rules for
ffxi to do this. Is this true? I am used to cheating on video games for
my whole life, so I was sort of shocked to hear this.
