Inactivity Cleanup and Gold Squish for a healthier economy | Ban amnesty
Greetings Warmane community,
With a new year now upon us, we're taking the opportunity to do an inactivity cleanup that will refresh our realms and free up forgotten names, the cleanup will target a wider range of character levels this year, we will also conclude a 50% gold squish at the same time to promote a healthier economy.
The inactivity cleanup and gold squish will be conducted and completed on February 27, 2024. Downtime is expected to be multiple hours.
- Level 1 and above characters that have not been played since January 2023 will have their names removed.
- Characters will have the opportunity to choose a new name upon the next login.
- Level 1 - 50 characters that have not been played since July 2023 will be removed.
- Premium accounts are exempt from removals.
- Characters that are guild masters will result in the guild being removed.
Characters that have their name removed will have the opportunity to select a new name upon the next login.
The gold squish means that every piece of gold that exists in circulation, be it in the character's inventory, mailbox, guild bank, website trading system or otherwise, will be simply halved. Exactly as it was done last year too.
Onyxia will be excluded from this year's squish and cleanup.
On the same date, we will proceed with an amnesty for banned users. This will mostly involve users who have been banned already for a long time.
Conditions for the amnesty will not be made public, the staff has specified several internal requirements for users to be unbanned and we will make sure that the amnesty will not involve any significant rule-breakers or any recent banned players.
Kind regards
Warmane
