When to throw away trophies or consumables?

I have held onto items like the Candy-Powered Matter Meter, Refugee Momento, Polla, Toymaker’s Bag, Mad Memories 1 Boyhood, etc. I didn’t finish the events.

Are these items ever going to be meaningful again at some point in time? Should I toss them?

How can I know when it’s ok to destroy or sell them?

Game files have strange permissions... possibly a security/installer issue

I have never seen any game or program install into the Program Files (x86) directory on Windows 7 with permissions like these:

c:\Program Files (x86)\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.dat No permissions are set. All user have full control.
c:\Program Files (x86)\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe No permissions are set. All user have full control.
c:\Program Files (x86)\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.tmp No permissions are set. All user have full control.

For comparison, here is a sample of another program’s installation into that folder:
c:\Program Files (x86)\Perforce\i18nnotes.txt NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(ID)F
BUILTIN\Administrators:(ID)F
BUILTIN\Users:(ID)R

c:\Program Files (x86)\Perforce\p4.exe NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(ID)F
BUILTIN\Administrators:(ID)F
BUILTIN\Users:(ID)R

c:\Program Files (x86)\Perforce\p4scc.dll NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(ID)F
BUILTIN\Administrators:(ID)F
BUILTIN\Users:(ID)R

I had it send me my username. Apparently the support account details had not been confirmed. Confirming the resultant e-mail allowed me to access the support website.

I tried to “Create an account” and it told me it already had my e-mail address/username on file.

Worse, yet, my account on the support website is also suspended, so I can’t update the ticket with my serial number.

Incident: 121007-000208

I received no e-mail regarding my account suspension and the message reported by the game login UI indicates my account may have been accessed by an unauthorized user.

Error code: 45:6:3:2114
Build: 15623

It provides me with no way to re-authorize myself or any information as to what type of access (IPs or something) that indicate that it was accessed by someone unauthorized to do so.

I play the game from 2 different locations. Is this the reason for the suspension? Why not send me an e-mail about the suspected unauthorized access with a method to restore it?

If restoring it will take 3-4 days, I will be rather disappointed as I just started a week off from work, and I was hoping to play this game. Please help.

While Amazon.com does offer it online, it isn’t currently available. GameStop’s is as that’s where I purchased it yesterday.

I couldn’t finish reading this during the extremely quick download of the game. Please make it shorter so that people do not “TLDR”.
