    It's possible if you were using alts to get these or if they were sold to you via alts, then they were tracked and removed.

    I bought every single one from either people on economy or for stacks of grass on survival. I even bought one or two on classic.

    I personally know that at least 90 of them are legit. Not saying all as that may not be true, also if lee/kera removed the ones from Togpuss's enderchest but not their island will the ones in my inventory (2 unplaced 1 placed placed from Togpuss unplaced is mine and other unplaced is GrassyString300's) will they be removed?

    Confirming that they're truly legit would require knowing each of those 90 people and knowing that none of them used alt accounts to acquire the Easter Baskets.

    It's a bit of a tricky situation, as buy shops for Easter Baskets sets up heavy incentive for people to farm them. Many players have hundreds of alt accounts linked to their IP, many of which logged into their alts, got the heads, then immediately sold them to the highest paying buy shop to make quick grass/money.

    While creating buy shops doesn't make you inherently at fault, buy shops do encourage and make it easier for people to farm baskets in mass and quickly sell them off.

    That doesn't make the item any less illegitimate

    I understand, but even with that, they aren't "legit" baskets. The only baskets that you can know are truly legit are ones you purchased from players you know not to be alts. Setting up buy shops and and buying nearly one hundred within a day or two is suspicious anyway you go about it, as there generally isn't hundreds of people all flocking to the same person.

    Generally it's a much slower trickle, with you buying baskets off friends or smaller players over time. When player limits are capped at 125, and there are generally only around 200-500 unique players per server per day (rough personal estimate, could be way off), it's questionable that 100 some of those players would have their baskets end up with the same person.

    Still dont understand why someone would take 100 easter baskets off someone? No-one has 100 alts to themself and if tog buys them off other people how is it his fault that they used alts so why punish him?

    I bought 100 all from different people. Not the same person. Yet I seem to be being punished for it.

    At least give Tog grass back. You know Tog bought them all, and that is not something you can just take away.

    The unfortunate thing that people need to realise is that even though the heads were bought from “different accounts” that does not mean they were from different people. Also as anyone who buys heads will tell you, it’s a risky gamble to think you will make any money from them as the price is set by the demand and the buyer.

    It is unfortunate what has happened to some people, but the realisation is that you played a dangerous game and lost. I guarantee that some of these heads were farmed by alts probably including your own!

    I hope this serves as a lesson to put thought before profit.

    ca1eb2k is known to have many alts and frequently uses them to his advantage. I do not know for sure, but I would guess a staff member saw him using alts to acquire those heads he sold you, resulting in your heads you purchased from him along with other heads to be confiscated.

    I have no control over the current Easter Basket situation, but I like to believe everything will get resolved with time. For now, staff want to take back all heads that were either obtained illegitimate, or believed to have been originally obtained through illegitimate means.

    Please contact Noobcrew through forums DMs, calmly explain the situation to him, and he or other staff will get back to you as soon as we're able to.

    I understand that this is a stressful time for many people, but I ask you try your best to remain patient while everything is resolved, and hopefully everything will workout well for everyone soon (minus the people responsible for the farming of baskets on their alts).
