    Try wrapping it in paper! It would effectively turn the fish into Item #5042

    OMG GENIUS?

    will that work? lol

    Edit: nope just tried, can't wrap stackable items

    As I'm sure most of you are aware all of the content of wow is on a database.
    Each item has a unique ID tag (wowhead infact uses these numbers to track items as well).
    Also your character, bags, mail boxes, ah transactions, are all stored on the database.

    All blizzard needs to do with regards to currently holding exploited items is
    - Run search on player accounts for all cata items (say Items 10000 - 12000)
    - Any account currently holding an item receives a 24 hr ban and automated email
    - Items removed
    - As this has never happened to me they may also possibly check your auction history to see if you profited from the item.

    Tricks like filling your bags with other items, or trying to swap the items to other accounts, won't work as they aren't looking at bags or items, they are just doing an automated sweep of numbers.
    They can't do that. You can get Cata cooking items legitly by dailies. Then that means they would ban a lot of people who got their cooking materials legit.

    But those are finite right?
    It takes a little extra effort to change a query over to ignore certain numbers but not all that hard.
    Search: Items Range = 10000 < 20000 ignore (12000, 14000, 14200)

    When it comes to searching information within a database all you need is a little tenacity and you can find pretty much anything.
    Also it's possible there is a flag against the item (unlikely as this would increase the DBs size which would quickly add up) to indicate the method it was gained.

    An while it would be cool if wrapping greens in paper would work, the new item is still flagged with its contents otherwise the game wouldn't be able to 'unwrap' the gift.
    English might be my first language, but that doesn't ensure I'll be good at it.

    Could just remove items with "cata only account" flag.

    This appears to be fixed in today's hotfixes, high level fishing are now flagged as obtainable by only cataclysm flagged accounts.

    No, they are not really 'finite'. Since people buy the crates from others aswell.

    Allthough your idea is right, atleast.. they could filter on FISH.

    Glad i haven't fished any

    Logged in to find all my fishing bags/cooking crates/cooking patterns that I had obtained by doing dailies had been removed aswell. Dont even think Im gonna waste my time trying to get any of it back as I doubt I even will.

    NOWAI! That's ba(n)g out of order! Are they allowed to do that?

    ...and before anybody chimes in with 'it's laik blizz dude - they do what they want' - they totally shouldn't remove other items? I've spent a bomb on crates/meat and the recipes took 9 days!

    I just logged in and I have everything, and if they deleted patterns it would totally screw everyone over, since you can only have 10 cooking awards...

    I found all items i had sent to my main which i farmed for 3-4 hours in Hyjal with the mc-cyclone trick, were gone from my mailbox, but not some items i got in AQ-uldum place that i had sent to my other alt. Which is kinda weird, thought they wouldve deleted everything once they started... So not sure, might be someone reported me when they saw me in Hyjal and they only deleted the items that i gathered that day.
    Plus i still have a banktab full of fishes which i got 2-3 days before the Hyjal items. Hmm, any thoughts about this? Didn't receive a ban nor anything. Nor a warning, not even a footprint that they did take any action...

    Hmm, if you keep the cata stuff in a guild bank, whether it be your own g-bank or not, could they trace it back to you? Could they even see if you have it in the guild bank?

    how much later do these bans come? i fished last weekend (sunday) still received no ban. i had one new cloth and one new stone, which my friend traded me after his hyjal trip on the first day when 4.0.3a went life but i deleted that yesterday. i only fished @tanaris(uldum border) i didnt sell anythink on the AH or tryed to sell it in the trade chat. its in my inventory since last sunday.
    how high is the chance of getting a ban? is it more safe to delete all the fish?

    and @pcigre: please tell us if youre playing EU or US.


    Anyone from EU received ban yet??

    My Accounts is a catacylsm account already, payed for the update about 3 weeks ago, money is gone from my bank account and it says "completely upgraded" in the account interface.
