here´s what happened:
An apparently new player joined Blade&Quill a couple days ago. He had lvl 5ish toons and was asking all kinds of n00b questions in /gu, what "skills" a Paladin needs and what armour a Necro can wear etc.
We gave him access to our guildvault, where we stored a whole bunch of stuff for low-mid level xp´ers and some guildies gave him some cash to buy equipment. The same evening, the entire guildvault was empty. Of course, I spoke to the guy and he said he´d only took about 5 items off the vault for his chars. I RightNowed, asking for a check of the logfiles and got the response, that two of his chars have taken about 50 items from the vault, completely emptying it. All his chars are deleted and are removed from B&Q, none of his alts is in my guild anymore. RightNow is taking abuse investigations against his account.
So.. a warning to all guilds: be careful with new people and giving them rights to your guildvault until this case is closed. It´s very likely, that this guy will try the same trick again.
