I rarely use Pinterest but have had it for years. I connected WoW on Thursday and posted a photo of a bookcase in my house with plushies on top. This morning i got an email that I was suspended.

Hi there,

We suspended your account because we noticed some activity that appears to violate our policies against spam.

I submitted information on their contact form basically stating what I said above.

After an hour and a half I got an email back saying they reviewed my suspension and are not reactivating.

Hi there,

We’ve considered your appeal and decided not to reactivate your account.

I see a Reddit thread starting of others in this situation.

Blizz, what’s going on? Did you guys not tell Pinterest you were doing this? Or are there users on Pinterest not amused with our WoW posts that are reporting us for spam?

We’re aware of this issue and we’ve reached out to Pinterest.

Until it is solved, we’ve disabled the function.

We’ll keep an eye on it and get it turned back on as soon as it’s safe to do so.

Update 2:00 p.m. PST February 23

The Pinterest photo‑sharing feature has been enabled again for all players, following confirmation from Pinterest that they have fixed the issue and restored all suspended accounts.

As a part of the fix, all previously linked Pinterest accounts were disconnected. Players who already linked accounts will need to re‑link their Pinterest account before posting photos again.

Thank you for your patience!
