[cA] Guildhouse Robbed!

So, today I logged in to find my "Secure" container gone in the chumbucket and Associates new guildhouse location.
All that was left was a book that says "you've been Robbed by Kenrobby. I"ll be back!"
Anyone know how one might be able to steal a Secured container? no Co-owner except my characters on the house.

Your post is not very clear.
Do you own the house?
What type of container was it?
Was it "I wish to lock this down" locked down?
Was it "I wish to secure this" locked down and secured?
Do you share your account with anyone?

yes

gm tinkered chest

no

After thinking about it, I may have infact forgot to secure it. But I thought I did. However, the fact that guy guy's name is Kenrobby and he left a book, kinda suggests he's done this before/ knows a bug on how to steal from secure containers.
Do you share your account with anyone?
no
I think the only explination is that I didn't secure it. But I thought we had a Decay rule in T2A, turns out we don't, I have had this container for over 3 weeks now.

If you didn't secure it, then it must be a locked down chest. Just because you had it for 3 weeks doesn't mean that it could not be looted during those 3 weeks.
If you do not say "I wish to secure this" then anything in that chest can be taken out, since it's just a lock down and its only the chest that is locked down.

Well he did say the container was gone.. so that means at best it wasn't locked down or secured.. unless there is a bug someone has figured out, or someone hijacked the account in some fashion.
Also, are you sure item decay isn't in? I had a bunch of boxes disappear in my house and spill all their contents on the ground (they weren't locked down.. I used them to block things off for provo macroing and whatnot.. started putting a few things in em as well).

The change to prevent item decay is in.
if you didnt lock down the containers then mobs can break them, other wise if it was decay the container and items would all have decayed.

If this guy used a bug, hopefully he wasn't stupid enough to leave his character or accounts real name..

It wouldn't matter if it were a bug or not, from what I hear we're keeping all T2A era bugs because no one actually wants to take the proper time it takes to play this game without cheating or exploiting in some way.
Bugs were bugs for a reason, era accurate or not.

We don't emulate house break in bugs, and this was not a bug, it was simply a unsecure, non locked down box sitting on the floor.
The bugs we have are mostly as harmless as using incognito and dressing up in women's clothing
There are no known house break in bugs, or other detrimentally exploitable loopholes on Second Age.
