What is "the holding area"?

[Pixiewrath]

<p>On The Bazaar I got this message upon logging in:"In preparation of the upcoming server merge, please be sure to remove all your items from the holding area. Customer Service will not be able to reimburse or restore any items left behind after Decenber 13."Exactly WHAT is the holding area?</p>

It may be /claim... or it may be your overflow.

[Pixiewrath]

<p>Could be... But when I read on the FAQ I get the impression it means the LG service.Stuff on LG that hasn't been sold. Forcing us to claim everything feels just odd, especially for one time claims.I just wish someone could confirm this.</p>

<p>I can't be sure with LG never having been available outside the states, but my understanding is that the holding area is the 'place' where characters and items go to before you made them available for auction (and probably after you bought something as well).</p>

<p>On the LG site, you have an inventory. In that inventory is any items/toons/coins you bought or any items/toons/coins you wanted to sell. You would been to clear out that section and send them back into the game.</p><p>So, go there, check your account and check your inventory.</p>

<p>No such message on Freeport, so it probably does mean LG holding area. Transfer your characters/items to game before that...or lose them.</p>

<p>On the LiveGamer WEBSITE - after you log in - there is a holding area for your account.</p><p>This is where your toons and coins go when being moved from game to auction.</p><p>This is only for those who play on the Bazaar/Vox server.</p><p>You must go to that holding area and send items back to the game before the server merge.</p><p>If you've never bought or sold anything this doesn't apply to you. If you have bought and sold things and you've moved those items back into the game then this area is probably empty.</p>

<p>I actually signed into it to check on mine as I hadn't been on that site since 2007.  I believe, though, that everything is returned to the account after a certain period of time so, in my case, it was empty. </p>

<p>Okay, I could never use it due to not living in America, so I guess I have nothing to worry about then.</p>
