yeh I had to ask some thieves last night that play here in icq etc, & they all said same thing, that one can not steal the containers. I *thought* that they were trying to put things back into game to permit thief skill to be more like it should be, guess that is why some famous thieves have long ago left this world, even from Siege.
I said, " well that sucks from thieves perspective and some rpl perspectives as thieves as well. I thought this was Siege ! "
