So a while back I decided to give twinking another shot and formed Team Play. After a few months and 10-15 people fully funded (including Aniimall, on multiple toons, for upwards of 20k gold) my Co-GM and I got a bit burned out of the scene and took a break for a couple months. During this break Animal petitioned to be made GM and took over 150k gold from the guild bank and all of the accumulated items we had bought/farmed up.
While 150k gold is a lot of gold, in the end its only about 20 bucks. Its not the end of the world. Some number of trolls will assuredly respond with 'durr what you get nub for taking a break', but I'm not on here asking for sympathy. Like I said its 20 bucks. However, I do want people to be made aware of the character of the individual who swiped everything from our bank. I know he has hustled a few times to get funded by various guilds in the community, so going forward before you fund this guy keep this information in mind.
I had waited a couple weeks to make this post, thinking that perhaps he had proactively taken control of the bank so that others couldn't do it. However, he doesn't really log onto Illidan very often now and defriended me on bnet, so its pretty clear he scammed at this point. Be warned.
