OK had a empty water bucket lock down and secured in house...
Been there for 4 days np at all...

Now today its gone???
I paged a GM to get the basic canned responce...whe can not replace stolen or lost items..

I wonder if you can fill it with water then empty to let its loose?
If so this is a bad bug and should be fixed, i still have 1 empty and plan to remove it until i know.....

Thanks and this was on GL and no its not in moving crate or under the house , since theres no way to find out..and a GM will not do anything or show up to see..

you got watered ... it broke the lock. the bucket as a container must have 1 item in it at all times!!! so it cant be watered. Warning to all who have buckets... I have seen alot of late on Atlantic... more so then a few months ago.. Im not talking 5 or 10 Im talking 25 to 50 of them on vendors.... not so funny if some thiefs are stealing deco..

Yes im the one who gave the warning today on GL Twoburnt..
I was under the impresion they fixed that stupid exploit/bug long ago, guess i was wrong..

And they sell for 4 - 5 mill here..
I have a clue who did it , but cant prove it..he was hanging around my place to often..

I do know that the buckets that had water in them can not be stolen..so trying to remove the water using a empty pitcher will not work....tryed it...on freinds account.

But i do think that someone going to the trouble to steal deco is sad..
If you need gold that bad go hunting for it..

I had made my house look nice for people to enjoy and maybe add a vendor or two..
I dont think ill be doing that now and may just keep it private..

If i could go into deco mode and not have to reset or lose another dam soul forge i would add a nice little gate on the path in..

Ah well not much to do now..just hope karma bites back 10x on the culprit...

As someone else mentioned, you can't add water to a container that has at least 1 item in it. Just put something in your empty bucket and nobody can steal it.

This has been a bug as long as I can remember. So anyone reading this post who has a bucket they want to display put something in it or fill it with water.
