No ban, but items removed from alt & main
Wonder if people had items deleted if they were in the mail, but not yet opened.

I still have all mine, just mailed some to my main from my bank.

If a ban/item removal comes through our server I'll let you know if they're gone.

I also sent some gold with it, so I'm guessing they would take the gold out as well, but I'll just have to wait and see.

Anyone knows if staying logged in your account 24/7 would prevent item removal? I do know that GMs require access to your account and need to log in it before doing anything. I've seen it happen many times, like when you make a ticket and GMs ask you to log out while they fix your problem. I have some items on a second account that is left open all the time and so far nothing has happened.

Just logged off for about 15-20 mins, still no ban and I have all the items.

Maybe they'll do something during the restarts? Hopefully not though.

not true they removed mine while i was online

Sold fish on the 10,000 gold plus 20 stacks in the bank and no ban yet

I had the same experience with others. They are making a sweep on each and every single realm as we speak right now.
All fishes and leathers were removed even when I was online but didn't get the banhammer.

What is interesting is that I actually saw my other toons went online and then went offline secs after. During that time /who did not return my characters. That was about the same time an email was sent notifying me possessing items that I should not have gotten.

Quite a scare, I thought I was being hacked.

So this means that somehow you are able to log your other characters while being online on others. Hmm, someone figure out how

Also, woke up today to find my whole banktab of cata fish gone.

I got the same email as above. And just checked the bank, but ALOT of it is still there O_O.

They probably found the stuff that was in the mailbox. fml.

In my case, they removed all inappropriate contents in bags, banks, mails and guild bank. It's pretty thorough.
Oh well, back to food crate solution for 525 cooking.

People getting banned for fishing did you use unstuck or did you levitate in Winterspring? or neither i.e. Uldum water walking.

After server reset, still have my fish, no emails/mails/ban or anything of the sort.
