Alternative to reset:

All items set to self-destruct. Each item refunds (gives the player back however many gralats it's worth) and destroys itself. The players' gralats are then scaled down: Say, take the root, so that a player with 100 gralats total value only has 10, and a player with 400 gralats total value only gets 20. Then either put the confiscated items up for sale, or automatically re-purchase the uncommon ones.

Modifying accounts is okay, but come on, a reset? For paying customers, on what's basically an RPG? That's like leaving the Gauntlet machine in the arcade until everyone gets to level 99, then swapping it out for a new one on which the accounts do not exist. Not polite, even if it is legit.

Resetting expired accounts on the other hand...
