World of Warcraft players posting screenshots of their virtual homes on Pinterest as part of an official promotion are being banned from the social media site for spam.
Blizzard is hard at work promoting WoW’s new player housing feature, and social media site Pinterest is another area where Blizzard is hoping players will find housing inspiration. Those who link their WoW account to Pinterest will unlock an achievement and receive an in-game toy, the Pin-o-Matic Camera. That camera can then be used to automatically post in-game screenshots to Pinterest.
Unfortunately, players attempting to participate are being banned or suspended for violating Pinterest’s spam policies, despite players on Reddit and the WoW forums reportedly having only posted a single in-game screenshot.
