    yeah same had it been stolen, only factor is there is a timer on the Oracle that if not corrected by the end you just lose the gear. So it depends on what that timer is, and did you make it back in time.. Hopefully the team can get to the bottom of it and stall all our fears and speculation.. Best case it is a glitch and you will get your stuff back, worst case we have individuals here that really aren't what makes this community so great..

    Also if the game had the ability to define parameters of what we are actually trying to accomplish in game. So for example is this character being logged off for the night or is this character being logged out for other reasons. I know it could sound like taking advantage of a thread to comment that I want the mechanic of sleeping in beds of course but carrying camping supplies to make a camp for the night will have some kind of timer in place to allow for that since it should give you a resting bonus if rested at least a certain amount of time. It could have a penalty given. If someone is logging due to other reasons the choices are for example 'going to sleep' (gives resting bonus), and logout does not give resting bonus because no bed or camping supplies were used up and is perhaps more distinguished by devs of players intent to come back any time soon;). Ok lol on no coffee, gonna go get some .

    In UO making a campfire / bedroll would allow you to instantly log out in the wild..

    I really don't think there is much of a mystery here, if you didn't wait for the logout timer and you were flagged and you got robbed. Also, how would someone thieving even know you were logged out, pretty sure it does not indicate when someone is in the midst of the 20 second timer....?

    This could be tested, does pick pocketing someone while they are in the 20 second timer cancel the timer, make it reset, or what?

    @Budner have you attempted to reach out to us via support@portalarium.com? Could you list specific items that you know were in your inventory/on your character that were lost to better help us track what happened?

    Thank you.

    Thanks @Attenwood I'm really not concerned about replacing the items which weren't particularly valuable, but included in case the devs want to investigate what happened for a mechanics/exploit point of view:
    • probably 25-50 of each of garlic, serpent scales, nightshade, black pearl, mandrake, spider silk, ash, and corpse wax
    • a handful of food items which I think included corpion claw salad and garlic spider
    • fortified iron leggings
    • 4-5 each of recall and teleport scrolls
    • a holly wreath hat +1
    • a cloth gambeson shirt died sparkly black
    • a long kilt
    • maybe a few other items but not sure

    Unfortunately, upon reviewing our logs, the content you observe missing was in-fact stolen from you via pickpocketing during the time period of January 17th 2017, 17:57:32.000 to January 17th 2017, 18:11:13.000 in Beran's Reach. Our log event of you disconnecting/logging out did not occur until January 17th 2017, 18:13:23.000 along with the ROMEUS message indicating being removed from the client due to being unresponsive/AFK. Nothing was lost while offline/disconnected. Unfortunately, it appears that you were AFK while flagged for PVP and an opportunist took advantage of it. :(

    In this instance, we will be unable to restore any of the items that were lost.
