"This action is currently restricted" for auction and mails

Hi all,

“This action is currently restricted”
I’m receiving this message for all my characters during mail sending or auction. It will be permanently now? Any updates?

Have you tried a full UI reset? I don’t mean just turning your addon off but a proper one, you can tell it works as you get the intro movie.

Any manual how to do this? I’m a fresh player. Not sure I can do this properly without detaild instructions. Thanks!

It won’t help Blizzard have done this on purpose.

It seems that anyone sending gold has had this happen to them, probably an over zealous anti cheat system.

same prblm so sad :frowning:

I also have this problem. I have been waiting for 2 days I think. I got reply from support that a hotfix has been implemented but I have to log out for 12 hours. Nothing to lose, so maybe this is fixed tomorrow when I login.

Also delete your cache folder. Just in case.

some here !!!

Same here, can not trade, send in game mail or use AH on any of my characters. Got the following reply from GM:

First off, sorry you’re dealing with this hiccup – I know it can be a bit of a bummer. Unfortunately, us folks at Customer Support can’t directly fix these mechanics-related issues, but we’re here to help guide you through a possible solution!

For some players logging out for a full day has been fixing this issue, there was a fix rolled out. If you haven’t signed out of the game for at least 12 hours please do so, then report a bug if it continues.

I have tried logging out for 24 hours and resetting ui with no solution. This is really aggravating since I feel that I can not play the game as I like it. I have to vendor stuff instead of sending my mats from mining/skinning from all alts to bank character.

This happened the day after i bought an epic item for my main with my bank alt and sent it through in game mail system. I suspect this is some automatic anti gold selling system that have flagged me or something. Which sucks since i have never bought gold, but rather grinded/saving gold using alts.

Update: Tried to make a character on another realm and error persists. so It is in fact account wide

Blizzard have posted this in the CS forum.

this is such crap. Yeah I started my subscription mar 15 so will be able to interact with other players from april 15 I guess.

Why do new players have to endure limited service and pay the same as everyone else? I have stopped my subscription and will use the last week of game time to create a new character on another server and play it as self found mode… To bad really, enjoyed coming back to wow after several years until now

If you have come back and are using the same Warcraft/Battle.net account then you shouldn’t be limited.

new account since i forgot my last info. not played since WOTLK

Okay, there is answer on Classic forums.

As I understood, Blizzard blocked access for fresh accounts to AH and trading. Literally of you want to start playing WoW, for the first 30 days you will be in SSF mode. And only after 30 days, you will get full access to all game features.

Probably this game is modified for existing players, newcomers will struggle, or as I understood the easiest path to full game access is to pay for first 2 months. Than just wait 30 days, and start palying :smiley:

Wierd, but this is a new world we living. GL all. Just wondering why did they touched HC.

Yeah seems like this is the case. A fine approach but make the game free the first 30 days then. Sucks to have payed for an incomplete game.

Been playing for quite a while, but by accident my old game account was connected to US, so I set up a new sub on another game account and now I can’t trade or use AH or anything. It started 3 years ago. Bizzare how this could have been approved. I will just take a break for now, no point playing.

Must still be issues with their new system then. I have the restriction, and this account is like 9 months old.

@ blizzard

Can we get an update on the planned course of actions ? As i understand this (useless against botting) feature was meant to be for SOD only, but here i am, playing Nek´rosh HC EU and unable to trade / ah / mail for 5 days…

Fix and compensation when ?
