RE: Mass removing items There will need to be a limit. Some pets have 1000+ items in their treasure, and attempting to remove them all at once would likely result in a 504 error and items vanishing from your account. Unfortunately this is just a limitation we have to live with.
I am thinking a mass remove page with checkboxes and pagination. TBH the main page could also use some pagination, though at least click-to-move makes organizing giant TCs less laggy. We just can't think of a way to paginate it and still let you organize it easily across the pages that it would have.
There would be a limit as to how many you could remove at once, and it would tell you when you check too many items, similar to the TC Mass Add page. I'm thinking, for those who want to remove all the items, it could have a button like "Check first 50" so you don't need to manually check all the checkboxes.
What do you think of these ideas?
RE: Auto sorting options Again the main concern here is large TCs, where sorting them all at once would... potentially be a huge server strain, if we're looking at thousands of items. The only compromise I can come up with here, is to allow auto-sorting on TCs that are below a certain size only. However I feel that might defeat the purpose (usually people want auto-sorting to help them manage super big TCs, not smaller ones) and it also seems kinda unfair to only let some TCs have this option. So this may be a suggestion we have to drop, unless you can brainstorm a better compromise?

I'm afraid that people with larger TCs would be upset, that it would be a feature specifically not available to them. That honestly does seem unfair, like it would be punishing them for using the TC feature. I wouldn't want anyone to feel that way, hence my hesitation.
At the moment I don't think we are going to implement pagination as a general thing, only on the Mass Remove page since it doesn't matter as much there and it could reap the benefits. As long as the pet profile shows all the items at once, I think the organize page needs to as well.

This is true, but sorting the vaults is an expensive operation. We want to be wary about adding expensive operations like that to more parts of the site.
