The maximum of 140 (now 280) items

What does the "maximum of 140 items" really mean? For a long time I thought that when I reach more than 140 items and items are scrapped, I would have 140 items in my workshop. But my experiences lately have given me another picture of the "maximum of 140 items". When I am writing this, I have more than 140 items which I can upgrade, and more than 40 items fully upgraded. And I have not recieved any new equipment since my last message saying my items have been scrapped.
I have not been checking every single item I have before and after the message saying my items have been scrapped appers, so I might not have this 100 % right, but here is what I think of the "maximum of 140 items", based on my experiences:
- It does not scrap legendary equipment. It does not scrap epic equipment. It does not scrap equipped equipment.
- It does scrap common, uncommon and rare equipment if you have more than 140 items.
So the only thing I need to do to make sure the "maximum of 140 items" does not scrap anything I would like to keep, is the following: I make sure any common/uncommon/rare equipment I would like to keep is equipped to my survivors when I exit the game. Do you have the same experiences as I do? What do you think the "maximum of 140 items" really mean?

After scrapping the remaining unused items will be around 120-125 pcs.

When I receive new common/uncommon/rare equipment, the message pops up the next time I restart the game, and the equipment is gone. This does not happen when I receive epic/legendary equipment.
If I switch out equipped common/uncommon/rare equipment with epic/legendary equipment, the message pops up the next time I restart the game, and the equipment is gone. If I let the common/uncommon/rare equipment equipped, I lose no equipment.
I have e.g. a level 1 epic scout weapon (not equipped), and it has survived many times when level 10+ rare equipment were scrapped. So there is no way the level of the equipment can explain why I lose my common/uncommon/rare equipment and not my epic/legendary.
They could at least give a warning..."hello, we are about to disarm you but will give you ten minutes to disarm yourself...choose wisely friend (they will say friend but it translates to fluktard)..."
I'm gonna tell the NRA!!! I have second amendment rights!!

I am also hoarding gear for the possibility of the next triple scrap event. It would suck to have them go bye bye.
I earned them, I should get to keep them

When was the last time you lost epic/legendary equipment? I am just guessing, but maybe something was changed lately, e.g. in the 1.8.3 update.
I am most interested in what people have experienced the last week, not what people experienced many weeks ago.
*Unless I need XP for upgrading, of course.

Please say thank you to NG for me. First Govenor bundle and this now. All right. I look forward to more good things from NG like fixing the broken shield.

First of all, total agreement on the inventory counter vs upgrade ready counter. It's a no-brainer. But I'm concerned to read about your crashes when accessing inventory or survivors. I haven't had this problem (yet), but what I've been noticing is a several second delay/freeze before my inventory opens. Just hoping this delay isn't a precursor to future crashes like you guys mentioned.
I wondered if it was because my inventory was holding more items than earlier on. Hopefully, that's not it because if we're now allowed to keep twice the number...
My game also takes several seconds to open quests & achievements, which I thought might have to do with the gamecenter sync (IOS)
Sorry, off on slight tangent there. I realize I'm whining about a couple seconds of time, just wondered if people went through this before ultimately leading to frequent crashing.
I see the title of this thread has changed. Has the maximum just doubled to 280?
Yes, 280 is the new cap.

Having said that, one of my guild mates just told me she's just started having issues logging in to the game - and she said she's also using the iPad2
Maybe I'll search this forum for her, but I kind of doubt I'll find any solutions

I got the information about the 280 maximum from the "Excess items Scrapped" in-game message. I guess I received the message because I had too many items (according to the 140 maximum) prior to the maximum increase, then the game scrapped my items, and the next time I started the game the increase was live and given in the message.
