User blog comment:CaptainShadow11/Possibility POTCO is Cleaning Out Pirates? Be Careful!!!/@comment-1140008-20130104175946

I believe this is all just a coincidence. I doubt they're banning people with secondary motives such as to clean out the population, or to keep old bodies from being stolen.

I bet they're just cracking down a little harder than before, no real big deal.

And in regards to POTCO closing... I wouldn't worry about that for a few weeks. Disney likes canceling their games in February, and they always give a 1 month notice. So, if we don't get a notice of the game closing this month, we should be in the clear for the rest of 2013.
