    I've entered an issue (Ref 36407) in our internal task tracker to review this design decision.

    This is starter equipment and, by their nature, are not tradeable. They are not allowed to be placed in the bank due to the bank's unique quality of preserving items between characters. This design was intended to prevent the potential for exploitation by sharing quest items or potentially exploitable items between characters. In this instance, the desire is to avoid players making new characters and dumping starter resources into a bank to hoard them for later use.

    If we can't put starter items into the bank, what are we supposed to do with them?

    One of my alts now has a Blank Book which was removed from the bank, a pair of cotton gloves, which were removed from his person, and a set of starter leather armor which was removed from his person when replaced now stuck in his inventory, and not able to be placed Anywhere.

    My only option it seems to remove them from my inventory is to destroy them... Is this working as intended?

    Srsly?

    @Attenwood?
