I don't doubt that the problem will be resolved.
However, the damage is already done.
My primary concern at the moment is how long it's going to take to reinstate everyone's accounts and what sort of compensation is going to be offered for this incident. (And yes, I do think players should be compensated this time because people got banned during the Halloween drop weekend and missed out on their final chance to collect as many Trick-or-Treat bags as possible.)
Here at my house, three of us took out our laptops and sat down to start raiding Talus Chute together to take advantage of these holiday drops while we still had the chance. Imagine our surprise, scare and ultimate disappointment when two of us received a message saying that our accounts were "permanently terminated."
Is fair compensation really out of the question?
Whatever ArenaNet does next regarding this situation will define them for me.

I understand your scare. I honestly do.
One of my guildmates whose account has been affected by this is storing a vast collection of minipets and the Legendary Defender of Ascalon title which took him several months of playing daily to achieve.
He's so annoyed at the situation that I have to post here in his place because he would likely just cuss up a storm instead of thinking clearly.
Edit: Sorry, Earth. Heh.
